Do you have an actual hand history that you can plug into the hand replayer instead? This is kind of hard to follow.

If you were the SB, I think you played it perfectly. If you were the UTG+1, I think you just got unlucky.

Preflop
Often calling from SB with a speculative hand is a losing strategy, but here you are very deep, and therefore I dont mind it.

Flop
You flopped a 15 out draw, which mean, you are slightly ahead of an overpair, so you are happy to stack off right now. But you also have 6 high, so you have no showdown value at all, and if you can get both opponents to fold and take it down right now, thats a great outcome. And for those reasons I prefer to check-raise rather than just check-call.

Turn
Thats obviously a pretty massive bink, and now the question is only, how do you get the most value. As in the other hand, you shared, it makes a lot of sense to lead out, because so often a hand like an overpair will check back now. But its not folding, especially not if it has a diamond. You could also check-raise, and maybe that was your intention. However when he bet full pot, it seems like, he must have something, or he is on a wild bluff. So because of his sizing I am on board with just calling.

River
The only reason to check-call the turn is to give him a chance to hang himself on the river, so as played definitely check again.

Results
What a cooler. Nice to be on the good side of it :)
