I still hate open limping here unless you're 95% sure you'll get at least 2 limpers behind you...and that I can never be 95% sure of so fold.

The way you played it raise the flop

wow, two mistakes. why not slowplay? the pot wasn't big. i'm more apt to slowplay when it's a smaller pot.

Any diamond behind you will probably call 2SB cold or 3 bet you if it's a high diamond. Guys behind you will most likely call 2SB cold or 3 bet you with top/middle pair as well. Plus the SB might 3 bet you pumping the pot more. There's a ton of value in raising this flop. Moreso than you get from slowplaying IMO.

nah, as i said it was a loose passive table. but you're right, someone might have called two small bets cold. raising the turn ensured that i lose him.
