Once you check behind on the turn, you have to call the bet on the river. Well done.

I would have bet the turn, personally, mostly because of your read (which I think after this hand you should have adjusted). If I got check-raised, I'd have folded. If I got called and checked to on the river, I'd have checked behind then.

Overall, I think you played this fine.

I agree with betting the turn, then dumping if you get check-raised.

BB's check-raise on the flop confuses me, especially once we know he's got only a flush draw. If I was getting check-raised on that flop, I'd put him on a good Jack (AJ/KJ/QJ), not a flush draw, because (1) he'd want more opponents in to help with pot odds; and (2) he'd want to get to the next card as cheaply as possible.

The only time I'd advocate checking the turn when the 3rd diamond hit was if I had the A [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] for the nut flush redraw. Would hate to get check-raised... and betting the turn would likely lead to either (1) anyone with a made flush check-raising; and (2) anyone without a flush folding... or seriously consider folding.

Never dump aces against an unknown. If you want to fold to a raise, then don't bet.

checking this turn is super bad. if you think he has a flush, then you should bet/fold the turn. checking the turn and calling a river bet sucks, as another diamond may fall or he has a jack and will pay you on the turn. bet.
