Sorry, but I have no view on the postflop analysis. I'm sure, though, that your analysis is accurate and that if not, the attack dogs on 2+2 will let you know soon enough.

Barron,

Brian maintains that the preflop call is a mistake.

yea, it all depends if you put someone on a higher flush draw, if so you should fold and save yourself before you get deep in the pot with a flush, if you dont then definitely call here and see what happens, dont push real hard if you do catch your 5 high flush though as you could be in danger

I would bet the flop here. I like your hand.

I like the hand too, but do you really want to bet out here. Looking at a likely raise from the preflop raiser, do you want to end up head up? When this happens you still likely end up with the same outs you had before. Its not like he can clear out a hand you want out either. Anyone with a better flush draw is calling two cold anyway.

I certainly don't mind tryin to get in some bets here on the flop but I think you're better off doing it by check raising the field when you get a bet and a caller or two.

Maybe you DO want to be heads up here. A bet by you and a raise by preflop raiser may drive out one-card backdoor diamond draws. T'would be a shame to lose this already fairly large pot to diamond runner-runner.

Not sure whether this is a compelling argument, but it's at least worth considering.

wow. cant believe this is still be debated. this was my hand and had asked nyplayer to post it.
i folded the flop because i felt on a j26 board with 3 players in and only 1 raise pre-flop it was likely i was up against a higher flush.

With THAT many callers.....you might be facing a higher flush.
