Lukie is on a distinguished road
 Villain is kinda tagg.. about 20/10ish. A little on the aggro side. Not that this directly applies to this hand, but I've seen him raise an ace-rag suited on the button with a limper in front. I really don't know what he thinks about me or if he's really paying too much attention, but if he is, he's notice I'm quite a tightie, but also quite aggro post-flop. I havn't played with him a whole lot, but I don't really think he's terrific, but certainly not bad. Preflop is a bit loose for me both times, but let's just ignore that for now.

Checks to me, I flop top 2 with 3 to the straight flush. I pot into the pfr'er/villain. He thinks and calls. At this point I put him on a range of something like: made flush, big pair (likely with a diamond), maybe 2 overcards with the Ad. I was really at a loss to put UTG on a hand at this point, he wasn't around for very long, but he seemed very loose/passive/horrible.

Turn is just miserable, giving any overpair a better 2pr then my own. And I really don't know what UTG, but villain liked his hand to call a PSB lead not even closing the action, so I figure I'll just check to him and if he bets, I have the benefit of seeing what UTG does. I'm considering pulling the ol lead flop, c/r turn allin line, but I'm quite hesitant, b/c I don't even know if villain can laydown somethinig like AdAx here, and I certainly don't think he's laying down a flush. I expect him to check behind a bare diamond, so when he bets, I think usually my hand is about as good as air here, with the only real value being that it's quite unlikely he has an overfull, I can beat a bluff, and I have 4 outs. Other then that though, my hand is trash. He makes such a small valueish bet, UTG mucks, and I decide it's not worth making a move here. He's laying me such irresistable odds though.................

Thoughts on the hand anybody?

Preflop usually is a raise or fold for me, more likely fold. Was the table super passive or something? I don't like playing a raised pot out of position against a solid player with a semi-wide range. Not much implied odds and it just sucks playing a draw OOP. But I realize that's not the point of your post, so I'll let it be at that.

I like your flop + turn lines. I assume if you get raised on the flop, you are shoving right? If the turn blanks, I prefer betting 0ut 2/3 - 3/4 pot much more than going for a CR (especially since UTG called your flop bet). I think MP1 checks behind any diamond draw + overcards type hand if you check to him on the turn, and there's a good chance he checks behind with a hand like AdAs or KdKs as well, since he may be afraid of your lead and UTG's call.
