Call and lead a non diamond turn

I think position is important. Closing the action, fire away. With 2 players behind, I don't mind a check and seeing how action develops and firing if checked around and blank Turn.

Given the bet, I'd call and re-evaluate on Turn. Turn action depends on if Button or SB calls as well.
