    I like the way you played the hand.
    Im calling the flop weak lead and evaluate the turn. If unknow fires big again, im probably folding the turn.
    As played on the turn bb shows weakness again, trying to take down the pot right there with our gutshot+fd is a good play. Fire again any non diamond river,fire any spade and T if checked. Check back K, J river

    I would like to know what other people think about the bet size. I´d like to make it bit bigger.

    I'm prolly raising the flop to like $4ish and expecting a fold plenty.

    Not sure I like the flop call. Raise if he is capable of folding an ace or a draw, otherwise fold.

    Same idea with turn, it's only good if you have fold equity. I am also not sure about a plan for a river barrel: lots of cards compromise this plan, and even if the river card is a blank for him, he may still not fold an A.

    I like it. Check back K, J, A rivers, fire again on non-diamonds.
    Playing big pots at small stakes.

    Bad players who bet low usually mean they got 2nd pair or worse from my experience (I only play 5nl though).

    Depending if he can fold or if he's a station I would raise or fold here.
