I am fine with checking the flop here as the rationale you put in your post I also agree with.  We are vulnerable here though since our flush is only 10 high so when I am in these spots I generally check as you do here but I also tell myself I only have a 10 high flush so I don't get married to my hand.  The turn is a great card as it brings in any 5x which is probably unlikely but still possible.  I disagree with your bet sizing here as I like something bigger as we probably cant get stacks in by the end of but we can get max value.  They lead out so they have nothing or something that is going to call a raise of nearly any size.  I like raising something like 15 BB here since if they will call 3x they probably will call 5x and if they were bluffing they are folding to either.  The river is a diamond which we don't want and villain just saw us raise and now they are jamming into us so I think unless you know the villain is a loose cannon and is capable of these types of bets this is a relatively easy fold.  I know it is a strong hand to fold but most villains wont be doing this especially at these levels so it is a fold and just move on.  More than likely they have it with a big card diamond that even if you bet the flop and turn they would still likely stick around unless you really went large on them.  In my opinion not played poorly but just some bad luck.  However, if you are in the same spot against a villain who you know calls or floats a lot then you should be betting the flop here knowing they are a lot less likely to fold.
