BB is a maniac who went from CL with 6000 chips to his current stack by going AI very wide, 3betting wide.. postflop checkraise bluffing etc.. you get the idea..
I have a hand that is definitely worth opening.. problem is BB maniac.. so I decided before I opened to call a possible 3bet AI from BB maniac.. did I play this hand? because here I'm definitely ahead of his range but on the other side I have also a healthy stack of 19BB with a good to huge edge.. so was it better to wait for a stronger hand here?
