live ~ are we supposed to flat AA w/maniac behind?
5/5/10 ~ 9 handed timed rake
V1 ~ assumes to be a maniac. Very first hand he sits down in +1 opens/snap 4b/get it in for 1k w/589Tds.
V2 ~ aggro asian, opening super wide preflop. Postflop cbets at high frequency. Has some aggression postflop but not super crazy. He was on roller coaster ride, from up to down to up a few thousand now.
Couple hands after V1 doubled up vs V2.
Eff 1700, they cover.
Preflop
V2 in UTG opens 40.
Hero in Co w/AAJTss, are we supposed to flat or 3bet?
V1 is in btn.

Flat of course, hope the maniac gets KJ73ds so we can get in a good chunk of our stack with a 4b.

Ok, in game, I forgot/ignored the fact he might go crazy.
Anyhow, an orbit later, from assumed he is a maniac to confirmed he's a super aggro gambly fish.
We pick up AAQ8ds in +1, do we limp or open, he's in +2 with 2k eff stacks. We open to hope he 3bets? or We limp to limp3bet?
These aren’t the questions to ask.
Is this hand strong enough to limp and play multi-way in case I can’t limp reraise is the right question.
I’d only do so with DS aces if ur intention is to limp raise as DS aces play well multi-way. This is prolly ok in theory but I’d just raise it
Stop getting fancy with aces. Put money in the middle your opponents are not balanced and call way too much. Exploit them by putting a lot of money in the middle with your best hands

I would make it 30, make it look like we’re trying to prevent him from making it 50. If he doesn’t 3b it’s not a big deal. If he does and we can make it 3-500 that’s great.
Without reading replies, I’m not overthinking it against these two with that hand in this position. Pot and repot.
Edit: Same with Hand 2. This guy isn’t doing fancy maths in his head, he just wants to gamble.
And I’m glad you won Hand 1. 😎
