Hero ?

What's the best play here? The flush got there and it's absolutely possible that he hit it. Against a TAGish player it's a std b/f I guess but it sucks against those shortstackers because they can shove any2 here and I'm facing a tough decision...

I'm not folding TPGK vs a halfstack.
His range atm should be from the flush to one-pair hands. So something like A9 should be in his range or a weaker Q like QJ.

My play would be to check to him with the intention of crai-shoving, so we might pick off some floats + if a no-diamond card comes on the river, we could make a value bet and should get paid by most of his hands.

If you think he's shoving the turn light, just bet/call, because you don't want to have him check behind and have a diamond hit the river.

In fact these two ideas also came to my mind and I couldn't figure out which line is the better one. Because in the example above villain was very passive I tended to the first one but surely there are players where I can call bet/call profitably.

im getting his last $38 in on the turn if he has a flush so be it.
