SB posts SB C0.02, BB posts BB C0.04

Pre Flop: (pot: C0.06) Hero has A♠:J♣:

Hero raises to C0.12, MP calls C0.12, fold, fold, SB calls C0.10, BB calls C0.08

Flop: (C0.48, 4 players) 2♥:4♣:A♣:
SB checks, BB checks, Hero bets C0.24, MP raises to C0.48, fold, fold, Hero calls C0.24

Turn: (C1.44, 2 players) 7♣:
Hero checks, MP bets C1.44, Hero ???

MP looks to me like a maniac, but too few hands to really tell.
It is possible that has had legitimate hands a third of the time. Not shown is the fact that he has donked the flop 60% and donked turn 100% of his opportunities. His post-flop aggression is 60%

I've called his flop bet.
I think his turn bet is air, possibly a weak Ace, possible a pair 88-TT. Considering his 3Bet anything else he would have raised.
The possibility of a flush does exist, but I still have likely the best hand.

Do I call it down, shove or fold?
If I call here, I have to call the river too, which would put me all in for sure.

vs a normal player, this is a no-brainer fold.
Can't go by stack size. This site's software doesn't auto-reload until you drop to 90 BB.

Peace,
VS

I wpuld give him more credit when raising 4way and probably fold turn. Maybe call can be OK vs maniac but it is not ok to sit on the table with maniac behind

I wouldn't really consider him as maniac, so far he looks loose and his PFR doesn't really looks like maniac, you also haven't posted Aggression factor or frequency.

However his min-raise on the flop doesn't look super strong and as loose unknown I would estimate his range for medium AX or some flush draws who want to see river for free, because after such raise you 99% of the time checks the turn.

All in all, Folding turn vs such sizing is fine for me.

I agree with the turn fold. We cannot call a pot bet there especially after the flop action and the board.
