I busted SB earlier with 74o boat vs. his AA...not sure what that tells us. Many limpers on earlier hands, playing junk, so this seemed to be no exception. Main question - should I have raised this on the flop? I hit my hand, but was somewhat afraid of higer diamonds. Any other comments are appreciated.

IowaSkinsFan will become famous soon enough

fold preflop, but otherwise i think you've done a good job trapping an aggressive player.

Besides that, you want all the money in. If he's setting himself up to get it all in, I play it the same. Would hate to see another diamond on the turn, though.

why are you suggesting folding 8t suited from cut off? terrilble advice.
Calling on the flop is not a bad idea, I would personally raise the turn however
