80%+ VP$IP and 40%+ PF raiseI had one at .5/1 this weekend (actually 93%) and got rivered 3 times for huge pots and another at 2/4 that helped me out a couple of times but my set did get beat by a turned 107o nut straight. That pot was $114 lol.I say it's a great thing but I had a guy basically run one off with rude table talk so I guess there's a different viewpoint out there.Why, oh why wouldn't you want one at your table?

I have an arch-nemesis at our regular home game...let's call him Brad. Brad is an absolute moron when it comes to poker (in my mind), chasing when there is seemingly nothing to chase, raising into me with my sets, etc. You would think that this would be a bonus to my abilities to gather chips, but no. I cannot recollect a single hand that I have beaten Brad on, in many many home games. Brad would definately be considered a maniac, and everyone in our home games likes him to be there, as he donates a lot of money to our games (due to re-buys), and eventually gives up way too many chips to the other players. Me personally, I can't stand playing against him, as he always sucks out on me. :cry:
