You are not allowed to call this turn and fold this river. If villain really is just playing back at you he could be doing this with TT hoping for a fold or 55 hoping for a call. The diamonds are a possibility, as is JT, but so are myriad other hands that you blow away. Of course, if you're WRONG about him playing back at you then you should have folded the flop. So, given that you decided to go for it and you hit your miracle card on the river you've GOT to pay it off if villain actually hit HIS miracle card, too.

Sucks, huh?
