i would like to gather some opinions.

i recently posted a scenario in the SNG forum, and want to ask an even more general question.

when you have maniacs to your left, how do you play them?

do you get aggro ahead of them, trying to keep them out of a pot with you? or do you sit like a rock and trap them? if you mix it up, what do you look for to aggro up? and trap?

please answer from both points of view...tourneys and rings, as most of us dabble with both, imo.
