Default 25NL: QQ on paired flop vs. maniac

Poker Stars - No Limit Hold'em Cash Game - $0.10/$0.25 Blinds - 6 Players - (LegoPoker HH Converter)

SB: $85.50
<u>BB: $4.05</u>
<u>UTG: $37.25</u>
<u>Hero (MP): $45.30</u>
CO: $23.55
BTN: $29.60

Reads: <font color="blue">Villain is 66/30/6.5 over a 150 hand sample. He'd been playing pretty crazily the whole session and had stacked off with 33 on a J96 rainbow board. I felt so molested on the flop when he called/reraised. Is this a fold or a push vs this sort of maniac?</font>

Preflop: Hero is dealt Q[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] Q[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] (6 Players)
<font color="red">UTG raises to $1.25</font>, <font color="red">Hero raises to $4.00</font>, 3 folds, BB calls $3.75, UTG calls $2.75

Flop: ($12.10) 2[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] J[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] J[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] (3 Players)
<font color="red">BB bets all-in for $0.05</font>, UTG calls $0.05, <font color="red">Hero raises to $6.00</font>, <font color="red">UTG raises to $14.00</font>, <font color="red">Hero ???</font>

7 more to call into a 32 dollar pot. Sounds like an easy call against this maniac. Am I wrong here?

I should elaborate. When you shove he calls and shows a Jack way more than when you call and he shoves turn (100% going to happen). Use his aggression in your favor.

What happens if turn is an A and he pushes?

I'd say call even if a K or A comes. That AF is through the roof

[/ QUOTE ]Call. He's pushing all turn cards, because your call is weak to him and he thinks you think he has a Jack -- he isn't really thinking on that level, just representing it because he can't help himself. Turn is superfluous.

People love to bluff on paired boards. Let him do it. Call, and if he checks the turn, make a scared turn bet so he shoves.
