Taking that into account, does the fact that we're so deep and the fact that he knows I've called him down previously affect this decision? Think there's merit to raising any street?

Looks %100 fine to me given the history. He bluffs like crazy, has so little chance of having a draw and folds a lot of worse hands if we raise, so I like calling down.

Looks fine to me. Calling down maniac bluffers is often the best line. If he had the goods this time, shit happens. Playing vs. spew-fishes is highly profitable but high variance.

The fact you called him down before is only relevant if it happened in the same session. Spew fishes don't use PT or keep good notes, imo.

yea nothing wrong with it imo. guys like this aren't going to make adjustments for stack size or even history...they are spewy because they are spewy and no amount of history will change that. I don't like raising any streets as your best bet here is just to call off your stack and let him think his bluffs have fold equity. If he shows up with a hand there is nothing you can do as that is the price you have to play vs maniacs...occasionally they'll have a hand but most of the time they won't.

Btw, just as a point of interest your x% for aggression frequency is pt3 stat or HEM stat? I'm pretty sure they are calculated differently for the different programs.

HEM stat.
