Yeah, duh. Calling 2 cold to a maniac is the same as limping. OF course some may call, but most likely, if they have recognized the maniac, and the majority of players do, then they understand a reraise after some limpers indicates the desire to play heads up, and usually the comply, except fro when they hava hand themselves, and then they wouldn't have 'limped' since they know raising still gets it capped.

you would make it 4 bets and then possibly fold to the cap (i assume you play a game where it is 5 bets)?
Possibly, but not likely. The games I mainly play, players hands are defined by the 3rd and 4th bets. A raise or call for 2 bets really doesnt say much aside from the fact that they may have a 3 gap connector with one paint. I'm raising now for info.

ANd I usually play 4 bet tables, but live i play 5, and the only way it goes 5 PF at my game is AA vs AA. i mean the ONLY way.
