The draws like 7d6d and 6d5d, maybe, since they can't win at showdown, but then I would expect them to get it in rather than call one, see a brick turn, and have to fold.
I suppose you can just check/fold if you think they'd never play even two pair like this and a diamond comes. I do think it's a set a lot of the time-- that's really one of the only hands it makes sense to play this way-- but I don't know if I'm confident enough in it to just give up the hand when we get called. I'm not totally confident in my answer, besides.
I appreciate the answer. I was curious to how we play on bad turns, I didn't really consider a set TBH I assumed most players would just shove a set on the flop
