NL Holdem .25/.50 blinds.

Playing in a home game this game this situation came up. How would you play it? You are holding ATs and raise $2 before the flop. You get two callers, one of which is a maniac.

Flop 10 4 8 rainbow.

Player to your left bets $1. You raise to $4. Maniac goes all in. ($24 and all your stack.)

Player to your left folds.

Action is on you. Call or Fold?

I want to know what you guys would do?

Additional information would be nice. Position of the players including yourself and especially the maniac and blinds. Previous tendancies of the maniac. Likelyhood of him bluffing or flopping big. Your confidence in your hand. I may be wrong, but, mathematically I don't believe you're getting the odds to call.

Call, and tell him if he wins you will throw him outta the window.. i find voilence helps when playing in home games..haha.. but for real id take a lil time and think about it.. thinkin about puttin him on jacks too.

Have you got him covered? If not you have to run, he jus as likely 84 as jj.
