You have position, you didn't have to play it this fast.

I think your opponent is FoS or on a big diamond quite often here.

We still have to 3bet though right? I mean, unless opp if FOS he either has a set or a big d as you say, either way we don't want him to see a free card because he may outdraw us or a set may be scared by another diamond.

Sweat a turn, then he'll commit himself more often than not.

I prefer a flop raise to about $37 and get it in. I don't like a lot of turns.

this line stacks opponent more often when he likes his hand but cant stand to get it all in.
You just need discipline to lay down when you get sucked out on every so often

I like Dean's line. I don't know if villain is on the NFD or if he has a set, so combined there are 17 scare cards on the turn. I would probably raise just a little less to give my opponent the illusion that I am not pot committed in case he wants to push the NFD or QQ/99. Aggro villains love to semi-bluff here with an A of diamonds; make sure you give them the opportunity. And QQ/99/22 will have a very hard time folding; don't make their decision easier for them by overbetting the pot.

Fnord's line may be higher EV, but will leave you with some really tough decisions on the turn 1/3 of the time. I'm lost on the turn with any diamond, 2, 9, or Q, so I prefer to pot commit myself now. So I vote zomg don't suckout on me, but don't blow them out of the pot either.
