We had some indian guy play who was an absolute maniac. He dropped $1400 over 3 hours with some of the craziest play I've ever seen.
Case in point.
I'm BB, haven't played a hand since I sat down 9 hands ago. The maniac sat down 1 hand after me and was already down $300 by the time this hand played out. There is a straddle to $23 by someone playing their last hand before leaving the table. $23 was their odd chips. Maniac re-pops to $80, blind. 1 caller. Comes to me.
I squeeze:
[jc] [js].
I push for $175. I wasn't gonna fold and my money would be in regardless of the flop so I went for it. (The first caller had proved to be very drunk and very erratic, I knew I was ahead for now.)
Both call, maniac has $172 total and the other guy has us both covered.
Cards rolled:
Me: [jc] [js]
Maniac: [8s] [3h]
Drunk: [kc] [qc]
Flop:

You get the picture. It was bingo central.
Now the real story:
1 hour later, I'm up to $600, maniac is down $1000 but not slowing down. His stack is a touch over $300 after actually winning a hand (against Peter Koroneos, who was a little on tilt after that).
I'm BB. 3 limpers. Maniac shoves blind for $302 from the button. Peter calls for $62 from SB.
I squeeze:
[ac 9c]
OMFGOMFGOMFGOMFG. CALL CALL CALL CALL CALL... (I lose all sense when i get this hand. It's a $300 coin-flip I'll take every day of the week and twice on any day that ends in y.
