Re: turn spot
I have not read the other posts yet, so I apologize if this has been said. If you have diamonds I'd definitely 3-bet, call a 4-bet, and check-call the river absent a diamond, ace, or 7. If you...

Re: Comm 40/80: Not sure where I\'m at
I'm not sure where you're at here either, but the pot is big enough that it's worth a call. You have a flush on an unpaired board...I think its worth 1 big bet to win an 11.5 big bet pot, maybe 12.5...
