First hand, while it does piss me off, I can't get too angry at villain. I had been open raising him from the sb the past couple of hands, and I figured this was him simply playing back at me. The second hand, I'm completely confused. While I had pushed preflop the previous 2 hands (45 on the cutoff, 55 from the hijack), and it is understandable to believe that I am tilting here, I don't think I could ever justify villains reraise preflop. The initial raiser was a maniac, VP$IP of 50 and PFR of 25. While I have no problem believing he felt his KT was the best of our 3, do you really want to put in that many chips 3 handed?

Here was your biggest mistake. After 3-betting the flop, you bet the turn VERY softly, giving villain 8.55:1 odds to call - meaning as long as he feels he's at least 10.5% to win the hand, he should call. Bet the turn harder, I'd probably have pushed in your situation (actually, I'd have pushed the flop).
