UTG+2 is a fish. Very passive postflop.
BB just sat down.

Preflop: Hero is SB with 4/images/graemlins/diamond.gif, 3/images/graemlins/diamond.gif. CO posts a blind of $0.05. UTG+2 posts a blind of $0.05.

Turn: (8 BB) Q/images/graemlins/club.gif <font color="#0000FF">(5 players)</font>

My plan was to hit a straight flush. But since it didnt work, I really hate calling this down. I know it's going to be expencieve and there's a really good chance I'm beat.

I like going for three bets on this flop. High diamonds only have five outs against you (thus waiting for the turn is not as important IMO).

Here I would fold. It's a tough fold, but I can't see you being good and with a 4-bet cap on the river you don't have the implied odds, I don't think.

As for the turn, I'm lost. BB could've slowplayed a higher flush, but with no reads I'd probably make the call.

Definitely reraise the flop. You will never, ever get a big diamond or a set to fold, so you might as well pump for value.

You are probably screwed on the turn. BB just filled up, went for overcalls, and now is seizing his chance to trap the field for more bets. Still, I'm making a crying call here and spending some of my Party Points to order the 2 /images/graemlins/diamond.gif on the river.
