Wait for your hand, and let him bet first. Check him to the river and then raise after. Do this a couple of times. Then Do it once with a hand you would typically throw away. Except, call him only after the flop. If he does not raise at the turn, call again. He may think you are doing the same thing and give you a look at the river without a bet. If you fold, you confirmed that you may stay in with loosing hands. This should throw him off and now you can play your good hands again, checking to river and then raising.

I he raising every hand? Or maybe just getting great hands and betting them? Not sure how many times per round hes raising. Also,how many people at the table? If he's just a maniac I would tighten up. If you get a reasonably good hand try a reraise and see if he's just an aggro/calling station.

They use to get to me and now they don'tNo matter what don't let them get to you.
Catch them when you can and let them drive the pot.
But be careful they catch hands at the worst moment.
Good Luck
and now i just wait for a good hand, and call there raise now, and then check raise them on the river, and they call it I would not call a raise before, and found out i just need to wait for a good hand and call them, and even fire out a bet on the flop to get a fold...
Thanks Guys/Gals you helped show me i should not be thrown off of a good hand by a raise.

The worst thing is that you can't read these people well .
If the maniac raises all the times preflop , he will make a continuation too if someone calls him ,often he will get a big amount of chips and loose it all in one or two hands.
Patience is very important against these players even if they get you very fast on tilt , try to get the right spots to get his chips.

I like check/raising a good hand vs an aggressive opponent. Typically if there is someone that active at your table you can wait for a good spot to take advantage of it. I prefer a really active table so I can sit back and pick good spots and I won't have to force the action.
