not an easy fold by any means, and i personally favour a call against most villains - why would anyone possibly openpush a straight here on the turn?

I agree. Odd, how the first half of the thread said call and the 2nd half said fold?

Easy fold. Way too easy for your opponent to have a hand on the flop like JdXd, or pair+gutshot with a J, etc. If he doesn't have a J, what is he open shoving the turn with?

Agree with the above that people who say "OMG CALCALCALCALCAL YOU HAVE A SET ZOMG CALL" and the like, are idiots because they advocate this and then sit there and watch in agony 80% of the time as the chips slide away.

I call. Hard to put him on a J really - I doubt he "just calls" out of the sb with a made straight etc. on this board.

Really tough hand. I'm worried he could be doing it with two diamonds that include the jack, on the other hand he could have hit two pair or have a set or something. One thing is that it doesn't make that much sense for him to not raise with the straight or the set. I think I actually fold this though, but not an easy decision.
