sitting in BB with $93 or so - UTG has me covered.
UTG raises $5 to $7. 2 callers in the middle - SB folds
I look down to find 2d 3d, and I call
The whole table is very loose.

Flop comes 8d Jd and 5c
I check.
UTG bets $10
1 call and one fold
I call.

Turn is the 6d
I check
UTG bets $10
1 fold
It's back to me.
What bet - and what would I rather - a call or a fold?


PASS THE SUGAH!!!!

I would re raise put the pressure back on him. There is a good chance he has a set or two pair but you have the best hand at the moment and try to eliminate him from calling with the Ad and letting him hit his nut flush.

I agree with the reraise. He sees the diamond draw has hit. Put him to the test instead of him testing you. It is a lot easier to be the better than the caller. He then has to decide....not you.
