Re: Live hand against a maniac (probably and internet player :-). )
[ QUOTE ]
I don't 4-bet the river -- opening myself up to a 5-bet sucks, since trip jacks will never be good when he 5-bets. [/ QUOTE ] Given the player were talking about, I wouldn't say it'd never be good. b

Re: Live hand against a maniac (probably and internet player :-). )
But you give him too much credit. He had Q [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]7 [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img].
I took chance by not charging him to draw. He may have folded had I raised the flop however so there is some value in letting maniacs bluff off their money

That is why you should raise the flop. This may seem like results orientated analysis but I prefer a straightforward approach.

You seem to be ignoring that. b

Your read is miles away from reality. Against a true maniac (not just a pf maniac, post-flop lag), I'd go anywhere between 4 or 5 and a [censored] of bets on the river. Mostly it would depend on how confident I am that he'd go nuts with a pair, or worse trip jacks, and also how likely I think it is that he'll go broke before I get a better opportunity. If he's anything resembling short, I take him to the felt. If he's deep, I'd see how I felt about things as they went along. Worst case scenario, I lose the pot, but my chips are still live and in play, so all is not lost.
