About time! I had 2 things going well for me yesterday:
1) Got some good hands
2) Had a drooler maniac that decided to come along.
I've sat for a bunch of session lately and had a maniac at the table only to go card dead. The next 2 hands happened in a short time frame early in the session.
He was running 78/25/x with a 25% 3bet...

I bet small on flop but I wanted to invite his range in, or if he had anything he would reraise me and I could get more of his $$. Not something I usually do (1/2 sized pot bets) but this player warrented this I believe.
The turn I put in a better sized bet and the river I bet small and not sure why. I think by that point I figured he had very little b/c he was pretty aggro when he did have something so I bet small to invite a call. I probably could've bet 2/3 or even 3/4 pot.

I didnt reraise the flop b/c I was sure he would just hang himself by the end of the hand. Yeah it was possible he had a J but his range here is huge.....I was going for it regardless.
He left the table right away and the $/pot went south pretty quick.
Hand 3 was at a different table and Villain was 50/2/x...
I only show this hand b/c I 2x barrelled, not something I do often.

I raise w/ A8o, good enough vs some weak limp folders and the villain who plays too many hands post flop.
I cbet the flop b/c his range is huge and he folds to cbets pretty quick. When he calls I thought about it quick and just didn't see this player having anything that this board helps that he calls another bet with.
So I tried again and he folded....
Yeah nothing huge but I dont barrel often....I usually check against loose players like this but I felt I had the correct read on him.
