Default Pair + weak FD hu omaha against maniac

This guy has been 3 betting me light preflop and pot bet bluff as well in some areas where I was weak. Curious as to the line most players would take HU against this guy on this flop. Keep it small, or jam?

He chases redraws hard and barely folds so my equity is not great (has pot bet 4/5 his stack earlier on a bluff against my nut flush).


Full Tilt Poker
Pot Limit Omaha Ring game
Blinds: $0.50/$1
2 players
Seat 1: villain ($349)
Seat 2: gameoverjc ($200.75)
Converter

Pre-flop: (2 players) gameoverjc is SB with 8[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] 8[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] 7[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] 5[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]
<font color="#cc0000">gameoverjc raises to $3</font>, BB calls.

Flop: 2[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] A[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] 7[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] ($6, 2 players)
BB checks, <font color="#cc0000">gameoverjc bets $6</font>, <font color="#cc0000">BB raises to $12</font>.

You are only beating a bluff here. Whenever possible give stacks so we know depth of play. I do not particularly like jamming here. Mini-raise by villian does not seem like a bluff bet.

Jamming the pot would seem pretty awful to me.
If you play a big pot here on the flop, you're going to be massively behind. There are literally no hands that you'd be ahead of.

Just call the flop raise and reassess the turn. If it's a club, I'd probably call a bet from him and see the river. If it's not a club I probably fold to any lead he puts out.

okay u raised, he will make insta call
what next?

if you gotta raise - raise a much
the only way to miniraise that pot if you have hand like AAK[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]X[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]
and it still questionable

its not bluff at all, and dont looks like a power hand
