Villain in this hand has been pretty tight PF and has been folding to aggression postflop alot.

How's my play on the flop, and what should I do on the turn?

I think it's a fold. I'm reluctant to put the aces as outs, so if you only count the flush outs, you need to make a big bet on the river to cover your call here. I think only a set would consider calling that. But if he's got a set, you've got two diamonds that could land you in serious trouble. What do you think?

I think you played it well to this point. I call here, if your flush hits on the river, most of the time your getting paid off big.

How about closer to pot sized bet on the flop? That might be one way to play this differently. Also I'm definitely calling that turn. I think a set raises more on that flop, its draw heavy as hell.

Pushing the flop is an option if you think you have FE. As you said villian has been folding to postflop agression a lot. 3 betting all in on the flop my get a fold.

Does everyone call this turn? Hmmm. Well then, what happens if the diamond pairs the board? (Do you just call a bet? What if he checks? Do you/How much do you bet?) What if the A hits? (How much do you call?)

Based on PF and flop betting I strongly believed he had a set. Not 100%, but I was leaning that way more than any other hand. If he didnt have the set, then 33,55,88,99,TT.

When the turn hit I was surprised by his 1/2 pot bet. I don't know it just seemed weak at the time. What do you guys think about his turn bet? There are alot of draws out there.

Do you think pushing the flop is better than pushing the turn?

Generally I will fold here aginst a good player. If you think you can get a big pay day on the river, and the stacks are deep enough(which they pretty much are) then I dont mind seeing the river.

I agree that it def looks like 2pr or set. Whether to call or not is very close,and probably boils down to your view of the villian - you basically have to think villian will call a push a river diamond with his probable 2pr/ set.
