Folding pre usually, but that flop makes me feel a lot better about it. Flop, not sure exactly how to bet the nut hand with this drawy board but I'd probably bet the same; your hand is disguised well. On the turn its tough. I thought to consider checking and reevaluate based on CO's move, but that might've been influenced by showing that CO reraised; can't say for sure now. =)

sure you're beat sometimes but there's nothing you can do but snap call.

I think you have no choice but to call here. This isn't a snap call to me but a tough spot. Do you have any reads on this player? Is he making the flop call with just a flush draw or even AK? Looking at your chip stack, you could consider folding as an option. Folding leaves you with around 2.3k and relatively small blinds so you still have room to play. Tough spot here, but I think I still call.

Fold preflop.

Otherwise, I play it the same, and call Villian's turn shove.

Fold preflop.

I had shown down big starting hands (KK twice and QQ once) when it came to showdown, and I hadn't been playing many hands. Thought these were good conditions to vary my play and mix it up with suited gap connectors.

on the flop, i wanted to bet enough to give draws incorrect price to play with me. i also hoped my betting might represent an overpair or semi-bluff fd / gutshot (i.e., JT)

I didn't really consider checking the turn. I still have a strong hand that is beating trips or a strong diamond draw. wanted them to pay to see the river.

definitely not a snap call imo, getting less than 2.5:1. i am drawing dead against a made flush, but ahead of the rest of villain's range. villain probably not on a complete bluff on this board, but a semi-bluff is very possible

Few reads. Villain hasn't played many hands, called down small bets with middle pair one hand, cbet another flop and that is about it.

Folding was an option, but I think I have enough equity against his range that I have to call.

It is a tough spot, because this is a baby flush a lot that's scared of a 4th diamond. However, it could also be a set/2 pair hand scared of a 4th diamond or just something silly like Ad9x or something. Anyway, I think you have to call the shove considering it's only 2.3k more for you, but you're going to be drawing dead pretty often.
