My read on this guy is he is a maniac, playing well over half his hands, and calling anything with any two hands.

PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em, $0.02 BB (9 handed) Hand History Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com (Format: FlopTurnRiver)

MP3 ($5.71)
CO ($2.39)
Button ($0.98)
SB ($2.90)
BB ($7.97)
UTG ($4.97)
Hero ($8.96)
MP1 ($1.82)
MP2 ($2.66)

Preflop: Hero is UTG+1 with T, T.
UTG calls $0.02, Hero raises to $0.1, 3 folds, CO calls $0.10, 2 folds, BB calls $0.08, UTG calls $0.08.

Flop: ($0.41) 4, A, 9 (4 players)
BB checks, UTG checks, Hero bets $0.25, CO folds, BB raises to $0.5, UTG folds, Hero calls $0.25.

Turn: ($1.41) 5 (2 players)
BB bets $1, Hero raises to $2, BB calls $1.

River: ($5.41) 8 (2 players)
BB bets $2, Hero folds.

Final Pot: $7.41

Results in white below:
BB doesn't show.
Outcome: BB wins $7.41.

First off, raising the turn is pretty weird, I'm not sure why you did that. It makes the river cheaper too. If this player is making crazy bluffs, I can see calling him down to the river though.

I probably just check fold the flop 4 handed, def fold to the check raise even if he is a maniac. I don't really want to call 3 streets just to see his A2o.

Am I just supposed to nut camp against maniacs?

They always have the potential to have a two pair, and always seem to have a hard time folding no matter the size of bet and no matter what is on the board vs. their cards

YES

Listen, if players cannot fold and will always pay you off if makes no sense other to nutcamp. I would play this way from you curent stakes (this hand is $2NL BTW) all the way until you get to $25nl.

Play tighter, if you get bored open up 1-2 more tables.
