Trapping vs betting for value with nuts on the turn

52o raise utg... loose table indeed. it's hardly ever incorrect to raise with the vulnerable nuts, or you can just also close your eyes and not fold pretty much any river if you think he might be spazzing out randomly

Pre-flop seems like a easy fold with 52o. As played I would raise the turn for value and protection and get it in. 3betting isn't possible with only a bet in front of you on the turn,

I don't play shorthanded. So, my advice is suspect. 52o??? However unlike many other fine players at this forum, I love to trap. Without hesitancy, I would just call the Turn. I would Raise a lot or go All In depending on what I thought Villain would call if there was no diamond at the River. I would Call if there was a Diamond. I would also Raise a lot or go All In if the River brought a non-diamond, paired board. I would not worry about a full house. It never bothers me when my All In quality hand loses to a better All In quality hand. It happens, but not that often.

Fold 52o UTG.
As played, raise the flop, raise the turn.
