Default Akward turn semibluff .. meh?

Villain is 28/7 or something over a few hundred hands, seems like a slightly looser tagfish, but I just sat down and these are my only reads.

Flop is probably standard, although I would 3bet against some players. Turn is interesting, how many take a free turn card? I think I check in this spot too often, so I decided to get aggressive here. Like? Also, comments on the turn bet size?

I think betting the turn is fine, many players bluff flops like this one. I don't think his hand is very strong after he checked the turn, I doubt he's going for a checkraise again. He might have a 9 though.

I think flat calling on the flop is optimal since ur straight draw is weak w/o overcard outs. Also this flop connects hard with a lot of hands he calls with preflop so you probably dont have fold equity with a three bet. On the turn if you bet here you have to bet the river because anything he made that pla on the flop with will call at least one street. I think check on the turn is optimal though if ur not sure or hes really donkish.

When I raise on the button, get called in the blinds, and get checkraised on a flop where I have a combo draw.. I'm all in.

I think his flop c/r range can be some random crap enough that he'll muck and we basically have the nuts.

How is a bare oesd with no overcards on a 2flush board a 'combo draw?'

i dont like that bet size much. id go all in, or bet smaller and bet again on non-diamond rivers.

but, i dont really like to bet vs loose/fishy players.

Well I probably misread the hand didn't I? I obv call flop given that 5 red cards will not make a flush.
