Why do you think raising here is stupid? You don't want people with one low diamond hanging around in this pot. Your raise might get them to fold.

MP2 might not only have a flush, but he may have a 3. I don't like opening myself up to a 3bet on this scary board. I think calling is reasonable.

Yeah, He may have slow played a 3, and the 3rd diamond made him protected it.

True. But also consider that on the flop, you are MP3 and bet out and the next two players called. So if MP2 had a 3 or a flush draw, it seems like he would have raised it and trapped 3 players for an extra bet instead of leading out on the turn.

Yeah, sure. Check/raising would be a smart play. Fish don't always make the smart play. They love to be tricky and slowplay to the turn when they have trips. And such is the reason why we make money.

That is probably the MOST common "move" I see on Party .5/1. Player has a T on an ATT flop and check/calls the flop so he can wait to bet the turn. SOMETIMES, they'll have more fun by ck/raising the turn or even waiting until the river to raise me after I've been happily jamming AJo.

They might even compound their mad skillz by taking a long time to call so as to "appear" doubtful about their action.

Nobody is folding a diamond here, but I'm not sure if raising is wrong.(?)

You are probably behind, and raising might lead to a 3bet, which would be an autofold and would suck.
