26?

Overcards - any J or T = 6
Straight - any Q or 7 = 8
Counterfeit the two pair - any 8 or 6 = 6
Flush - other diamonds not accounted for already = 6

Total = 26

Just found this online odds calculator, which shows the outs as well as the odds:

I"d better add that as a bookmark.

More importantly, did you win the hand?
