A big hand with a maniac and a TAG...

tilt, why do you think so?

I'm half persuaded that my turn play was spewage and I should have just called MP2's raise. If BB raised again, and MPs capped, i'd be pretty sure BB had AA-JJ and could fold with a clear conscience. If BB just called MP2's raise, I'd be looking at Flush draw most likely, or Big OCs. In any case, i'd be more likely to act appropriately....

the maniacs hand is anything.
if bb is a tag, is range is expanded by the presence of the maniac. if bb is a lag, well, then he's a lag. he's also been passive, which can very well mean overcards on this flop, esp. big diamonds.

perhaps you went one raise too many on the turn, but it's not a huge mistake given your reads.

The turn is kinda meh. We just capped the flop and our LAGTAGgy BB friend is still betting the turn. Even if the maniac is going crazy with some strange holding, BB seems happy with his or her hand.
