This hand played out really odd...I was drawing semi thin on turn and perhaps should have taken free card off...instead I fire 37.00 only to get raised to 223.50 or so...looking at my NUT outs and scoop outs I justified the call...do you all agree?

I really don't like this. What are you hoping to flop. Aside from the miracle 234, any straight are just going to get you half the pot against a nut low A2 if there is any action, and you're got hte bad end of any straights that don't make lows (the classic reasoning for throwing hands heavy on 5-8 in the trash).

I guess you can take a card off on the flop with implied odds, but tou're really drawing at 3 cards here. On the turn I don't understnad at all, it looks like insanity and a clear fold. Why isn't it, why don't you further explain your reasoning

Here was my thought process..maybe flawed...I had a few cards that IMO were perfects that would scoop...I also was considering if a diamond came potting it at the river to represent the made hand...this would go along with the line I took as I paused for while then made a crying call on turn...I felt like there were enough cards that "if" they hit I could take his whole stack if he got froggy with 2 pair and bad low draw or trips..remember if he has set and diamond comes..after the line I took I should be able to move him enough times to make the play + ev yes?

I like the line here if and only if your going to try and take it away at river if a diamond comes..if board pairs I think its an automatic fold at river.
