Raise to like $1.25-$1.50 on the turn for value on the diamond draw that isn't folding. When the diamond misses, you can take 'em to Valuetown or not lose value should you check behind to another scare card and I wouldn't call the Queen much of a scare because of the flop action.

I'd bet about $2 on that river, the Q isn't that scary and plenty of worse hands will be calling you. You can figure at least one of them for a fd so i would pop the turn up a bit more as alex said to deny them odds for the call. Not sure why he's calling that raise on the turn though with 78.
