How do you play someonewhos style is this....his requirments for starting hands are this any 2 cards will do, even with raises from 2 ppl ahead of him. if he hit the flop at all by at all i mean even if its just a 2. i played tight and on 4 differnt hands aa kk jj 99i had him beaton flop and new it, had him beat on turn and new it ending up all in and 4 differnt times i got beat by miracle two pairs, such as a 4 on the flop two high cards i had aa, 7 on turn, i knew i had him still and when he turned of 54 the river a 5. agaisnt my kk i knew i had him again he floped top pair which was an 8.a 2 onturn he raised me all in, i called on river he hit 83 two pair.... the other players at the table were playing loose so i stayed tight and lost the other 2 hands in same fashion.... a fing lucky ass river to this dude.... the winnings he procced to spew to everyone else at the table usually by calling the utg raise which every time was a premium hand llike mine hiting flop and spewing the rest of that money to them chaising that river card...Was their anything i could have done? Or were the cards conspiring against me?

two words for you.... LONG RUN!

you got your money in good I am assuming and got sucked out. I hope you bet correctly though on each street etc

Best way to play a MANIAC is... patience and make them pay for their loose play. 3 bet hard and shove flops with good hands.

They get chips fast and lose them faster.

PATIENCE AND WELL TIMED AGGRESSION!

Need a better profile of his play. Start really picking his game apart.

How deep is the money?
How much is it usually to see a flop?
If you open, how often does he re-raise? flat? fold?
If you limp, how often does he attack? How does he respond to a limp re-raise?
How big is he betting relative to the pot? How often? How does he respond to being played back at? Does he check/raise or lead when he doesn't have initiative?
