    Default 66 vs Maniac/Donk (6.50)

    1st hand in SNG i limp 9-10s after 2 limpers in the CO. Villian from this hand min raises both limpers call i call. 9 high flop. Villian bets like half pot , both limpers fold i call. Checked all the way down. He had 7-2 offsuit. He 3bet min-raised me when i had AQs on another hand which i just ended up laying down on a missed flop and he calls everyones raises
    I layed this down although i figured i had the best hand but didn't close the action , and wasn't sure what i should have done (lead out/c-rai/c/c?)

    So, I just typed out reasoning for c/c UTG and c/f to BB then disagreed with myself. The problem is there are so many turn cards we don't want to see. I think you have to lead out here:

    CRAI is gross because BB may be planning the same and every time we are called we are drawing to 2 outs.

    C/F is obv OK vs. a normal player but vs. this opp whose UTG range is potentially so wide I think it's giving the pot up too easily.

    C/C gives opp the chance to take the pot away on the turn/ draw out on us on the turn/ river since we aren't going to bet the turn.

    It's a tricky spot though...

    Merry xmas!
