I seriously hate this hand...Am I good enough to call here? I mean it's so early that I know players will spaze with weaker holdings on these types of flops (I have no reads at all, except for the other player that calls is a Total Maniac)...Did I make the correct fold here, I think I personally did, but I mean could he ever show up with 10s/8s? What do you all think

I guess your correct in saying this but is calling really that awful with this hand? I mean if I shoved (Which I was thinking of), I figure only hands that crush me call, also I thought they would'nt spaz out on flops that don't help them out at all..

Shove pre. Calling is pretty awful. $0.50 BI so we completely crush villians range. Some people spaz out and call all in with shit like A3o. We're a decent bit ahead of AQ AK, flipping if they're suited. We fear 3 hands out of 221 and at this level he probably calls with top 10% of his range (wouldn't be surprised if some call around 20%). So we're so far ahead of what will call us it shouldn't even need thinking about.

As played I'd call. You have to be aware that he's going to do this on any flop and that's not scary enough to fold to a PSB.
Should definitely shove or fold pre based on how tight he is.
