You could fold 4th.

There were two dead clubs on 3rd, fold 4th. You have no other draw. WTF is up with 5th? A little too crazy IMO.

Don't show the other guy's hole cards.

With two clubs gone, I'd fold this for a full bet on third. I don't think your hand is live enough to take one off on fourth, either. Your hand is worth a bet on fifth, and I'd take the cap. I'd definitely check and call sixth street and check the river whatever comes.

By forth you've lost a lot of outs. An ace fell and a ten is dead not mentioning your clubs are gone, and unfortunately you are playing this hand solely for the flush past 4th which is busted. I say fold 4th, but I have a bad habit after reading flushes section in 7CSFAP that taking a card off if you have outs to make a hand, to draw to slim outs which is what you would be doing here.

This hand was pretty iffy to begin with. I could see taking a card off on the turn if your draw was REALLY live and/or if you had more than 1 over to the raisor's Ten. But, as it stands, if he did raise with TT, then your Ten in the hole is pretty useless...the 5 is not going to do you much good, as it doesn't connect with the AT (when the hand starts out with a few holes in it, I think it's important to see if there are other ways/outs to draw to, and the 5 won't help you connect to a backdoor straight, so it's kind of like having a banana). Now, on 4th, you've also lost one of your Ace outs, and, the 8 that you caught is just adding another banana to the fruit bowl. You need to catch OVERCARDS when you brick off and decide to take another card off in these spots, because when you pair them, they might actually give you the best hand.

Weighing that all out, this is an easy fold on 4th.

Thanks for all the comments.

After using the hand converter (and i used the option to remove results), i edited out a lot to remove the opponent's hole cards. I didn't realize it revealed seat 8's cards on every street. Oh well.

On 4th street (and even on 5th), the only dead club was the 6. I thought this made my club draw very live. Guess i was wrong. I suppose i called on 4th b/c there was only 1 dead club, and b/c of pot odds (3 opponents, and none of them showing anything scary).

edit: for some reason i didn't notice the dead 9 of clubs.

Fold 3rd. 2 clubs dead, facing full bet, T is dead so just the one over(and hitting an A as opposed to say a K,J,Q means less action usually), hand not connected at all.
