Hi guys! My hand sample is small, but it's obvious that opponent is maniac. Vpip 90, PFR 80, 3bet 40, Cbet 100, fold to cbet 0, previous hands he played very aggressively, he just bets all the time.
What is in your opinion the best line against this type? Just call-call-call regardless of the board? This hand is not a very good example because I've got 2 pairs OTT, but what if I have just top pair and board gets ugly? Should I ever fold top pair against these guys?

Against guy who barrels every single time I don't see any problem in just calling it down with TPTK. And now that you have top 2 pair I think it is easy call OTR.

Hm, per 20 hands this is seems loose enough, so with top 2 in 100BB I guess it is always NOT a fold.

We can 3bet PF. As played I agree with calling otf, but I'm raising ott.

No possible draws completing OTT, I guess raising all in is a good option but considering villain I might just call as well to keep getting value from his air.
