Raise the flop, you've got 3rd nuts on a coordinated board get the money in while you're best.

Capping the turn may be spew, the board is more coordinated. Reads would be good, what does BB raise with pf? Does he overplay flush draws? Does he raise pp?

The reads would come in handy on the river. So would have rasing the flop, it might have given you insight into what flush villian is chasing if any. Chances are villian is overplaying ako or aa though.

I usually raise the flop here.
Don't raise the river

Raise the flop. This isn't the time to be playing for overcalls.

Turn and River are fine. I doubt BB could have the flush or straight here. I would just call the river 3-bet, expecting to see KK, but either AA or AK is a possibility.

Raise the flop.
Call the river and thank him for not checkraising his KK.

I would probably raise the flop because of the two diamonds, but I don't think a call here is bad at all.

On the river I would just call since the flush hit and any 7 beats you.

Figured I'd weigh in since I have had so much trouble playing pocket pairs lately.

Pre-flop looks pretty standard.

I know it's really tempting to slow-play the flop but in this case I think you have to pop it with a raise. The reason is because the board has enough coordination to worry you with a flush draw and possible straight draw.

When you get 3-bet on the turn you might want to pause and re-evaluate. BB has shown nothing but aggression. Had you been 3-bet on the flop it might have clarified your hand a round earlier.

I expect you're in a WA/WB situation and others can help more with the turn and flop play.
