what happens when we bet the turn and villain POTS A NON DIAMOND RIVER?????

Then you can consider FOLDING.

I think a turn bet here is fine. People are going to be calling the flop with all kinds of junk and a backdoor diamond draw is definitely conceivable. And I think there are too many things that call us on the turn to give up the value here.

On the river, I'm guessing that you've run into either a flush or something mildly zany, like A6. Could be a poorly played set or worse two pair, too. I think this is very close, but I would probably call here.

if we were to consider folding here then if we check the turn and he pots river we can call for nearly the same price we were going to bet on the turn while still keeping the pot manageable with what may be the best hand
