1/2. 120 Effective.

BB - $200 - LAG/Maniac
BTN - $300 - Maniac
UTG+2 - HERO

H: AQs, i open to $12, btn and bb calls.

F: QcKc8, I check, BTN bets 25, BB calls, I Call.

Thinking back, I believe its a FOLD or Raise All-IN, but at the time I believe that the villains fold percentage is too low (<%10).

T: 3; I check, BTN bets 54, BB folds, I tank call.

R: 2; I check, BTN shoves me ALL IN, I call.

Any thoughts on any street? I feel that I got myself in trouble on the FLOP.
$12 open was normal in this WILD game.

Top up your stack, AP shove flop. The call OTF leaves us with ~$80 behind in an already $110 pot.

Well played if BTN/BB deserve the label of maniac. Villain has a lot of low equity hands that we want to stick around so I'm also just over-calling the flop. Stick the chips in on the turn, though. You're letting him semi-free-roll you for the last few dollars.

In a normal game I am folding the flop with second pair when there is a bet and a call, but not against maniacs.

The BTN had 83o, for a turned bottom two pair.
