Bad session with a maniac at 25nl.

$0.10/$0.25 Blinds - 5 Players - (LegoPoker Hand History Converter)

This has got to be my worst session ever. Villan each time is an 81/35/1(122) who seems to bet rive regardless of hand (river agg = 6.5).

Had to take a little work to cool off.

I'm very much a rookie but since I've been 2p2ing I've been winning at about 8BB/100 (over about 4000 hands).

Hero (SB): $23.32
BB: $21.64
UTG: $39.28
CO: $7.66

UTG had 4[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] K[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] (a flush, Ace high) and WON (+$9.02)
Hero had J[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] A[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] (a pair of Aces) and LOST (-$9.75)

... Was kicking myself about the weak turn play but I'm pretty sure my fold equity with this chump was somewhere close to zero. Bad play I know...

... Was weary of that hand coming into the next... hence overbetting the first two streets.

Checked flop to felt bet size from button who seems reasonable. Was prepared to shove over CO as he was betting with anything. In hindsight, this was a pretty stupid move but flop action couldn't really have worked much better for me.

Considering villan's range and AF stats I figured I was well ahead of his range and was happy to play for a small pot with what was an overpair on a paired board (prior to the river).

Looking back, it seems I was being priced in...

Hero had 8[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] 8[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] (two pairs, Eights and Threes) and LOST (-$9.10)

I need a stiff drink... and maybe some coaching.

Any thoughts would be appreciated.
