I would check-raise the flop unless he bet HUGE and I had position.

But it was only 50 chips...and there were sooo many limpers

I would have pushed the turn. Any A,T,8 may fill up a two pair giving you the 2nd best full house, any diamond other than Ad Td and you have to worry about a flush beating you, and any card 6 through K makes a straight possible.

[tallasudude]

but if they have 2 pair, they are staying in that hand. I wanted to get the last caller in the pot.

[DBowling]

actually any card that doesnt pair the board makes a possible straight. i agree on pushing the turn.
