When faced with these decisions we have to ask ourselves..

"What would Marty Smyth do?"

Only you know the true answer here, you need to connect to his mind.

How long had maniac been playing at the table?? could he be trying to create an image on 1st hand?? probably unlikely as its a full buy in but nevertheless could he maybe overplaying due to the fact of the call with 2nd bottom pair earlier hand- he knows now that with the 1st hand you have him labelled a V loose player and so will call a shove. Against a player like this isn't it better to tighten right up to reduce variance and wait until you have a strongish hand which no doubt he will call/fire barrel after barrel.

His range is huge here from an overpair, to flush draw, to set, to air but ther is so much uncertainty I think it might be better waiting on better spot- he may well be on tilt but its an expensive guess unless you have other info than just the 1 previous hand

This is a spot I often struggle with, in the past I've snaped when facing a what apears to be a donkey.  I probably lean towards the fold as you will hopefully find a better spot/get more info, 2 hands probably isnt enough to justify the cost of the call.

disagree, villain is a cs donk and didnt even play hand 1 terribly. he views u as spewtard aggro but given that he min 4b you pre in hand 2 he has a big pp/10 a lot more than AK/AQ. fold.

^^Think I lean towards this, though gotta admit I hate folding here as could be in great spot.
