what is important here is your stack size and the position of the rest of the stacks at the table. as blinds go up, you will be in a great position to be pushing into people you cover. i say fold and conserve your stack. given that BB is loose, this makes me want to raise even less, since you have to fold to his push.

This is spot on.
Raising is spewing imo with your reads and the stacks being the way they are. Anytime you're not utg you have a license to steal.

I think a raise here represents enormous strength, and will scare the BB even if he is a maniac. Your UTG and have no reason to tangle with a bigstack, yet your doing it anyway.

In his eyes, you must have a monster.

This doesn't rule out the possibility of one of the four players waking up to a hand though.

Definately wouldnt limp (no need for the maniac to shove your face full of chips)

I'd probably fold given the BB...unless he becomes solid when ya raise into him and can can find some folds.

cant bluff a calling station...and can raise a maniac out of the pot.

Grunch, I think I am folding this here, I would want 99+, AK to even think about getting involved here, more if the table seems slightly crazy/call happy
