$0.10/$0.20 No Limit Hold'em Cash, 6 Players

SB: $42.29 (211.5 bb)
BB: $59.62 (298.1 bb)
UTG: $38.97 (194.9 bb)
MP: $11.77 (58.9 bb)
Hero (CO): $20 (100 bb)
BTN: $20 (100 bb)

Preflop: Hero is CO with A K
UTG folds, MP calls $0.20, Hero raises to $0.80, 3 folds, MP calls $0.60

Flop: ($1.90) 2 A 4 (2 players)
MP checks, Hero bets $1.14, MP calls $1.14

Turn: ($4.18) 5 (2 players)
MP bets $6.60, Hero raises to $15, MP calls $3.23 and is all-in

River: ($23.84) Q (2 players, 1 is all-in)

Villain is 100/73/AF3,4 maniac and he was doing a lot of crazy bluffs.

Is shoving turn better than calling? He should not fold anything to that shove because he has just little bit over 10bb left in his stack?

IP id probably call and bet him all in if he checks river, but its hardly a big difference. If he is just on a dumb bluff i think even a casual maniac is going to realise he cant bluff you with his last $3 at a $16 pot.

He could've had anything (about 50bb, limped), ugly bluffer or straightforward value bettor.

Folding is not really an option against this villain right?

If I just call turn I would hate to see a 3 otr. and split with him.

I think it matters little what you do on turn (just don't fold).

I think you could isoraise bigger against a 100/73. On the flop I'd minbet to induce him, if he just calls, then I'd size turn/river bets to play for stacks.

As played, on the turn I think jamming can't be wrong with so little left, but especially against this guy, I'd just call in position, because he is the type who is capable of spewing with anything, and we can get some annoying folds even though we think he is committed...

I agree w duder1n0 that we can iso raise bigger vs this kind of villain.
On the turn, theres is not much difference... I think playing fast is fine.
Well played.
