It'll be a running flush if he hits it -- what do you mean he won't get action?

My point is that if he hits the flush, it will shut down much of the action. I suppose it's unfair to say he won't get "any" action, it's dependent on the villain's hand, but the 3rd diamond hitting the board will shut down some of the villain's action. Maybe not completely as it's "backdoor", but still, the hero's line looks like a draw. If the diamond hit's, then the villain will be cautious, as the flush is probably the most "undisguised" hand in holdem. Given he'll get more action "backdoor" than he would if the 2 diamonds were on the flop, but I still wouldn't expect much action here though if it hits. Maybe the hero can squeeze a 1/2 or 3rd pot bet out of the villain at best.

My point about the Ace: if he hits it, he'll bet it. If the villain can't be the Ace, villain folds, if he can, he raises and the hero loses a big chunk of his stack.

If that's the case then hero should peel any flop and bluff any flush or ace that shows up.

Come on. This is headsup, people don't give you credit when you hit.
