The limper is a complete fish so nothing there.
The blind is fishy, plays loose for fr (23/19). But what drew my attention as well is he donkbet from blinds like 2/3 of the hands he called. I couldn't quite note with what though, but I've seen him donkbetting both sets (potsize) and flush draws (1/2 pot).
OTF, I thought villain would never need to lead a flush like that, so I called with top pair to re-evaluate turn. I put him on As so bet draw, a pair made into bluff since he donkbet most flops anyway, or something like that.
OTT, then it didn't make sense at all for him to check. Then I thought he didn't have the diamond or was trapping - but the trap didn't make sense as if he had the As he wouldn't want me to check behind. So I decided to take my stab. The stab was to small I know, but I thought if he didn't have a diamond he would fold to any bet, if he did have it he would call a big bet anyway or raise. So I didn't feel the need to bet big, but maybe I should have gone to 1/2 or 2/3.
River... river is a brick and he checks again. Then I put him on a medium diamond, but this didn't fit the whole story from the flop. Even JT wouldn't make sense to bet OESD on that flop, maybe QxKd, QxTd, those kind of combos, but only the first one would make sense to call pre-flop (I think). Maybe TT with a diamond, etc.
But I didn't stab again as figured if he called turn he was on call down mode and wouldn't fold at all. A big bluff seemed stupid, and ridicule as could be, but I had some showdown value, so checked behind.
I thought it was an interesting hand, where could I improve?
Cheers!
