A weird hand with a maniac

[TheWorstPlayer]

He has basically a random hand. a)he does fold 30% of the time - maybe when he has to put 25bb in with cheese is one of those times? b)his range is mostly crap preflop and will be mostly crap on the flop. I bet 400 and he instamucked. I did LRR after all! Even this dude is not going to need two barrels to get off bottom pair, right?

Well, that's what I thought at the time, but a small part of me WAS afraid that he was either going to c/r or c/c with a slightly better (or maybe even c/r a worse) hand. You guys think this whole thing is retarded, though? Just limp/call and check/fold?

[/ QUOTE ]No, he doesn't. Their open-limping and limp-calling ranges are often a lot wider than coldcalling-3betcalling ranges. His range is not the 70% his VP$IP is; or at least there's no way you can claim it is after this little hands.

I'd like limp-call and check-fold better than what you did preflop.

well it's an aggro 6-handed game. so it's not like it's getting limped around very often. one hand before, someone opened to 40, there was one caller, and this guy made it 650 to go. on another hand, he opened to 770.
