    It shouldn't be a question of being "scared" of the flush. You should be thinking about the types of hand he calls pre-flop, check-calls this flop, check-raises the turn and jams the river. If a large portion of that range means he has a flush, then it's a good fold. I think he's played his hand face-up as a flush.

    Four-handed to a flop without diamonds in our hand, I don't think we should be c-betting. We have only a gut-shot and this flop is very likely to have hit at least one of our opponents. We're not getting three folds often enough for this c-bet to be profitable and our hand doesn't have alot of equity against hands that call us.
