He said he thought the original raiser would also call, giving him odds....at which point I suffered a brain aneurysm and muttered "nice hand" and nothing more

2 non club Aces, 2 non club Q's, 3 non club J's = 7 outs, plus the implied odds because you will obviously call all-in with a worse hand every time. Plus 10 clubs put a 4 flush out there, and if a four flush comes it means you always have a set, and from your perspective it means he always has a club to beat you with a runner-runner, so he can win the pot with a bluff any time a 4th club calls. So 10 outs give him the pot as is, and 7 give him that + your stack. EZ call.
