I don't wait till the turn to raise here because of the flush draw.

Meh this is such a silly notion. The odds against a flush draw out there are almost 6:1. This is a wasted worry.

I dunno really. SB's flop cap and turn check/call means that he has a draw. The problem is that he might just have QJ for a straight draw. There are 15 combos of that hand (not counting QJ [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]). There are 55 ways that he could have flopped a flush draw in this hand, so you should you are getting a pretty nice overlay if he will fire off a bluff with QJ when the flush draw comes in. The problem is that he will probably give up with a busted straight draw on the river and check/fold most of the time. So I think it is close here, and that it really depends more on a read then anything else. I don't think that anyone can blame you for calling because a) it is so hard to lay it down in a huge pot and b) it would be correct to call here against certain opponents.

Another reason to wait until the turn is that there aren't any players behind him left to act. In the posted hand he had the oppurtunity to call 2 cold on the flop and then raise a bettor on his right for a double bet. This is fine.

In reality it appears that the SB would have 3-bet it, and at that point when it comes back to me I would 4-bet it. If, however SB does not reraise then I would raise a non diamond, non king turn.

Where does this 6:1 come from? Random hands for opponents? When the action goes bet, call, raise, into a preflop raiser on a two flush board I imagine bayes theorem comes into play and the probabilities of flush draws being out increases. The fact that the player suspects a flush draw is important to the play of the hand.

I dont think you did. bet + raise could be a lot of things on this board, even considering that they're doing it with the PFR still to act.

if you knew for a fact that he was on a flush draw this would still be the correct way to play it.
