I don't make this fold and lose lots of money because of it /images/graemlins/frown.gif

I'm not really sure if this is correct, but I think you COULD give up on it. Even a draw like JTs diamonds has an edge against you at this point.

Also, feel free to cut out the action after you fold in the future...

I don't know, it seems pretty weak-tight to give that advice, but it's not terrible.

--Dave.

Edit: OP asked the question, who check-folds this flop?

Some do, but they shouldn't. Bet-folding is a definite option, especially against passive opponents, but I'd do it even against an aggressive player -- too many things can go wrong and not enough things (2 outs) can go right.

This decision is fine. I also wouldn't mind firing another one, intending it to be the last of the money I put in the pot. This is especially true if players tend to make loose flop calls. You'll get people calling with gutshots (QJ/QT/JT), but they often won't bluff the river when they miss their draw AND they try to check-raise too often when they hit it.
