3 bet the flop. There is a fd and you have a strong hand. Given that your opponent is loose, you are beating a lot of weaker aces in his range.

I 3 bet over his bet and look to get it in.

(1) There really isn't much he can have to beat you.
(2) There's a fair amount of worse hands that can pay you off if you raise over the top of him (and he's prolly loose enough to have them), plus a fair amount of draws that will be coming with you.
(3) Playing the turn and the river will be pretty difficult oop on that drawy of a board.

what r u doing if he shoves over your 3-bet?

nh OP. If he's bluffing, then I'd let him bluff. If he's ahead you can SD cheap. You're definitely getting odds to call that turn.

I dont like 3betting the flop, if he shoves I wouldnt be happy. Rest of the hand is fine imo

Why are you all talking about 3betting? Isn't it a 4bet when we bet? Or is a 3bet postflop sth different in comparison to what it is preflop?
He seems to be loose passive so i think his range is pretty polarized to a very strong hand like AQ or air. I think he'd rather call w/ his draws AJ/AT than minraising it. I'd just call the raise on the flop.
But what on the turn. Shouldn't we bet the turn to protect our hand against another diamond? Would we fold to a raise or trying to get it in in case he's shoving w/ AJ/AT?..
