Noticed a 2 handed 200NL game with a avg pot size of $79 with one of the players on ~$800 so I decided to sit down on the big stack's left to see what was cooking (next time I will observe for a while first). After the first couple of hands it was pretty obvious that the big stack had been milking the other guy and had him on monkey tilt as you have never seen before, raising and reraising preflop every hand and betting and raising on every flop.
First hand vs maniac:
I raise on the button with 75o to $6, maniac makes it 10 and I call, flop is K55 and maniac bets $15, I raise to $40 he makes it 80 and I push.
Second hand (4-handed now and maniac has about $140):
I limp on the button or UTG (can't remember) with 65c, he makes it $10 from the SB. I call and the two of us see a flop of of T63 (one club). He bets $20, I call and the turn is the 4c. He bets $60, I push.
BTW the avg pot was $170 when I left.

Nice "content" bud 
First it standard.
Second one is a good play if you are HU by turn. You can pretty safely count yourself 14 outs here, you have some folding equity and if you call you are getting descent pot odds (naturally not sufficient but still..)

Why not just call his reraise on the flop in the first hand? If he is bluffing (which doesn't seem unlikely given your description of him), give him the opportunity to continue. If he actually has a hand, you lose nothing by just calling.

Second one was HU from preflop, I have lots of outs and vs this guy I think I am still ahead anyways most of the time.

Fair point, guess I got a little excited. Also I would hate to see another K flop.
Since I have recently moved up to 200NL Im not really used to the amounts of money yet and playing vs a guy like this is a high variance rollercoaster. I think I did quite well under the circumstances, especially the second hand - not that easy to stick it in with a pair of sixes 
Results will follow later, but Im hoping for more discussion.

Results:
First hand he called me with K9
Second hand he called and I missed the river but my pair of sixes were good.
