i think the turn bet is good.

southern is an aggressive player, its highly unlikely he has a diamond draw here, he would probably checkraise or lead the flop w/ it. the bet on the turn is for value as much as it is to protect against hands like 9xTd from getting to see a river and possibly making a flush that forces hero to shut down, thus taking the pot. it also looks like a really strong card to bluff, and makes it very difficult for villain to continue w/ almost his entire range. thinking about it further, the way the hand was played, i might actually put villain on a hand like A8 or A9. those seem to make a lot of sense based on the way the hand was played.
