Default Results and thoughts

I raised, SB folded and BB called.
Turn was a small offsuit card, it went check, I bet, he called.

River brought a 4th diamond. he checkraised me and I called and Took it down.

I'm not sure I want to raise the flop because I may want to keep the SB in, he's calling with a flush or the Kd anyway. I raised though because I figured I awnted to charge the Kd or any draw for that matter, to make it.

I would raise. The BB betting typically means an ace or two pair, possibly a small flush. You have a straight and want to collect bets from people that are drawing close to dead, and who will not give you action if a 4th diamond appears.

The SB is a big favorite to have zilch on an AQJ monotone flop. That's the sort of flop that people snort at and toss their cards instead of checking for. I'd have raised just to get more money from the guy that seems to want to play with me and not worry about the guy who probably is going to fold for one bet anyway.

Raise. Not close.

If nothing else you are protecting your future semi-bluff raises.
