    First, your not trying to push people of of flush draws at 2nl and second why wold you want to? I think if your going to raise here you need to raise more since you still have goven some pretty decent odds to a flush draw since they aren't priced out. The raise into this many people is a little scary though with NFD's, AK's and sets all possible and none of them are folding. Your not getting any better hands to fold here but worse will call so it's not horrid. The fact that I think your calling off a shove over your raise on the flop means you need to raise more.

    Maybe I worded that wrong, I just wanted to give them bad odds to carry on with their FDs.

The problem with the raise is that it's not enough to price out the draws, because even if a diamond pops ott, you are still committed. So if they call and they hit, they're going to get the rest of the money except sometimes when you hit a diamond otr. So you should charge them more.
    Yeah you're right. For some reason I forgot we're talking about 2nl and people could actually fold. I'm not sure I like shoving still, but I know I need to raise more now to try and accomplish what I was trying.

    Thanks for the advice everyone btw, I suppose I need to have a look at some flop odds and make sure I know standard things like flush draws etc.
