Should I have played this hand differently? I know the end result ended up being good, but would you all have played it differently? Maybe re-reraising more PF or reraising the flop? Villian was 18/9, less the 100 hands.

Don't like the min raise PF, I would have made it .60 and raised again on the flop maybe $1.20 you have to love the flop

Agreed with posters above. You have two overcards and a nut flush draw...you have really nice equity here. Get a lot more aggressive with these types of situations, because you won't always hit your flush draw, and as you saw, as soon as that last diamond hit, villain stopped putting in money.

3bet higher. Raise flop. Bet turn.
