You gamb0l there? No read, I haven't seen anything horrible though.

Do notice the stack size. I don't think it's relevant, I'm just proud of it in the midst of my month-long downswing. That's a third what I'm down!

Back to the hand, I can only think of a few hands he'd be on there...a set, a made small flush, or possibly the ace of diamonds. Only one of those I really want to call, yeah?

Hmm you are drawing for a diamond if he has a made flush, a diamond with no pair on the board if he has a set and you want to avoid diamonds and aces if he has the Ace of diamonds).

None of these cases I think gives you odds to call for your stack. Only 1 scenario puts you ahead (the AdX) and only by a very small margin (like 55/45 I think if you "only" have to dodge aces and diamonds).

Unless you have a really good read that this guy is capable of making this play with any other hand (top pair and the Qd or Jd/a cold out bluff) I think this is an easy fold.

I think it's pretty straightforward.

Easy fold. Well done.

It's not what's inside that counts. Have you seen what's inside?
Internal organs. And they're getting uglier by the minute.
