Villains stats: 69/47/19 with 5 AF over 51 hands

Preflop I could just flat the hand I guess. These aces are not that premium, especially out of position. But I think 3betting is no mistake when one doesn't feel lost in deep 3bet pots oop. With these kind of maniacs, also there is always a good probability that they do something real crazy and dumb preflop and we can get it in with pretty ok EQ. Flop c/c is best play here, right? He had only 33% Fold2Cbet. So what to do against his pretty large bet OTT? Just calling will bring us in a lot of tough river spots. GII on the turn seems to lose, or not? I mean he is a maniac, his UTG range (80/80 for 10 hands) can easily have trips or boats on the turn. Folding also kinda hurts. So I'm pretty lost here...

I don't know how to play these kind of dificult spots, for that reason I just flat call non premium aces, specially OOP, deep stacked and against 2 players.

If he is ultra agresive 4betting because you have this data, you could min 3bet him expecting a 4bet to 5bet your aces. But you avoid creating a big pot preflop with a hand that will not hits flops hard so often

He is a maniac. Maniacs bluff. Folding is preposterous.

3b standard. not folding.

Ain't check calling flop the worst option here?


isn't this more a reason to bet flop?

Probably the best card in the deck for you apart from an ace. Check/calling the flop against an aggressive player to c/f this card is giving away money.
