I would like your hand a lot better right now, if you had the ace of diamonds.
But, you have two overcards, and the third nut back door flush draw, and you are closing the action in a moderately large pot. I think that taking one off, and seeing what happens right now is probably right, or at least not too wrong. If I didn't have a diamond at all, I would probably fold this, so I think the decision is probably fairly thin.

This is pretty much my thinking......Q [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], 12:1 closing the action....probably pretty close.
I called and the hand played out like so.....

SB has KK.
So, having lost this, I was rethinking whether peeling one off here was not as close as I thought.
