I would also consider betting the flop. You may have the best hand and it's a scary board to somebody not holding a diamond. It's a clear fold with two bets cold back to you though.

I would defend here preflop like you did. Neither of these players has to have a premium hand here so seeing the flop getting 5:1 seems like a good idea to me.

I only play in the 40/80 once every couple weeks (if that). But I was there yesterday. 6'4", red, very short hair......I only play OK live, actaully have trouble reading the board sometimes lol.

If by plays well you mean terribly, then I agree with you. He's lost a fortune in that game and oscillates between horribly weak-tight and horribly tilting, always at the wrong time. A nice enough guy, though who would win if he played smaller (like 40-80 or especially 20-40). THis is the Seahawks fan not our intreprid poster, who plays very well from what I have seen.

I'm virtually certain the Seahawks fan is not a 2+2 poster. He plays well though.

Of course he does, he obviously thinks very well.

Why bet the flop? More often than not, it's just wasting a
bet with bottom pair and a near bottom diamond draw.

Actually, I think this is a fold preflop. 98o just isn't
good enough for a blind defense.

This is a ridiculously easy fold, I can't see how there would be room for discussion here.

I'm not convinced of the idea of betting out on the flop as others have proposed. You'd get raised by CO with a wide range of hands here most of the time and it really won't tell you much about CO's hand. You'd be playing from behind the rest of the way and even if your flush hits it's still fourth best.
