I think the way you played it is fine.

Some argue that drawing to a str out of position with a paird board or a flush drawing board isn't that good of an idea but you do have one of the bigger diamonds out there....... the turn complicates your decision adding a possible out... but that out makes a lot of other str draws as well.... I might make the crying call on the turn though...

The turn in no way is a crying call. Not drawing to your straight here would be terrible.

There is no way you can play it any different then you did. HUge pot, gotta call even if you have only 6 outs you're getting more than enough. Throw in two diamond straight outs and 2 Q outs (J is likely worthless) and folding would be a very big mistake.

Gotta fold the river though, second pair isn't goign to cut it for a third overcall.
