Hi,
Curious to other people's opinions. Villain looks like a maniac so far, with VPIP 29, PFR 29 and 3-bet at 40%. Very small sample size though at 18 hands.

Minoepoe: ??My raise on the flop was a stupid amount obviously. I was hoping to snuff out a drawing hand but looking back that's a bit of a silly raise. Anyway,
I virtually cheered when he shoved and almost snap-called here. His stats made him look very loose, with a 3-bet of 40% and him being on the button, but I still don't put him on air here as he has to know we might call. It's 2.94 to call into a pot of 5.75, so we need to win less than half of the time to make this a profitable call.
If we put villain on a flush, I'm at 35% to win. If he has put him on any pair with the ace of hearts, I'm 70% to win. If villain has KK, he has us crushed.
What is our move here?
Spoiler
Villain showed KK for set over set. I think I'm still happy with my play, but this was the bitter end to a great upswing of 8 buyins in 60 minutes, and as with any big pot I have to evaluate afterwards. Obviously if the flop had more than 1 suit this would've been an easy call, and with a tighter villain I could've gotten away from it. I'm just wondering with 3 hearts on the flop, could we get away from this hand?
