    Default 25nl Zoom: weak two pair in 3bp facing inconsistent line from likely maniac

    Only about 30 hands on villain at time, but he’s shaping up to be an aggro. 40/30 type with 20% 3bet and spazzy aggro post-flop. I really struggle against wide ranges and spazzy maniac players though and think I get myself in a mess here.

    In hindsight, I’m not sure I like pre as it’s rare that villain’s going to have a hand that stacks off the times I hit big.

    I don’t think villain is strong all that often when he takes this line on the flop and calling with pair plus back-doors seems ok? I’m finding it really difficult to come up with a range for this guy though when he’s so wide and probably FPS bluffy.

    Turn is kind of gross. If he was spazzing with a fd or QJ he just got there, but I’d possibly expect this guy to check all of his nutty hands given reads and barrel all of his air. River call is probably still bad though?

    I think pre is fine.

    Flop I'm prob folding to the raise. We can wait for so many better hands if we want to get to showdown with this villain.

    Turn - You said you checked behind but it's a b/c? It's a pretty sick turn card though and we have to call one more.

    River I'm folding.
    Currently grinding live cash games. Life is good.

    Edited and corrected - that's the problem with posting so many hands at once!
