Villain is 48/16/2.8 over 100 hands. A couple of hands before he minraised a cbet with only a flush draw against another player.

It's one of the situations where I just don't know what to do. He's LAG and can have anything here, including nothing. I normally just fold to the flop raise, but it seems SO weak that I don't know if it's the best move.

I lead turn for about $8 and fold if he raises, or I just fold flop. Seems weak but you've represented a good hand, and he's representing something better

Ugh, please don't call, shove or fold on the flop depending on whether you think he is FOS or not.

I don't like the flop call. What do you expect to happen on the turn? If he is lag, he will probably bet again. And you don't have the odds to draw. So either put him in his place with a reraise or give it up.

So we wont call then with 4,3-1 in odds leaving us with 9 behind? I for some reason do not like this move at all.

I either raise all in on flop or fold since there is pretty much only one card i'd like to see, and its a queen.

Merits of assuming he's FOS and calling, and letting him 2nd barrel the turn- assuming he's overagressive postflop?

OTOH, a call means you have a tough decision on a turn if a diamond comes and he bets at you... Ugh. I hate these spots vs. a LAG. Good thing there aren't too many competent non-spewy lags at NL25.
