Tough spot. Usually I just muck this because it sure looks liek bigger diamonds are a distinct possibility.

This is much less likely since the ace of diamonds is on the board. I want to see all five cards, pot is way too big to fold.

Please don't fold. In fact, you might as well cap it yourself to speed up the action and get to the turn card. Getting 12:1 essentially on a cap (if I count correctly, there were 14BBs PF and there will be 10 more BBs if the 5 opponents call the cap -- which will happen whether you do it or CO/button does), you only need 4 outs immediately to be priced in.

Given that you have 9 outs to a flush, we can still discount the 3d completely since that will clearly fill someone up to bring us to 8 outs -- and if you cut that in half because you may be 50% sure someone has the K-high or Q-high flush draw (KQs, Q9s, whatever), you still have odds to see the turn.

Something else I look for in a pot like this is a backdoor str8 draw, which you have. If you catch perfect 8-9 or K-Q. But regardless if I had a possible backdoor draw or not I'm going with this hand 'til the end or the board pairs. And like PJ said go ahead and cap it to speed up the action.

call...

Cap it. KQd and KTd are the only likely higher diamonds. With the Ad out there, you can't fold, and you may as well push your equity edge assuming that your flush is good.

If the board pairs on the turn and there's tons of action, you can give it up then.

K4s, Q9s, Q7s, K6s, etc... This is live poker.

But in reality the pot is still massive, and even if you discount your 8 outs to 5 or 6 given the possibility of a higher flush, you can call.

Lets change things around a little bit.

Scenario 1) The flop comes Ac7d3d.....would you consider folding now or is the pot still too big to fold?

Scenario 2) The flop is slightly different(Ad8d3c) but this time you hold 7d6d......Now what?

Scenario 3) The flop once again is the same as actual hand...you decide to cap the flop and everybody calls. The turn is Ad7d3c3d...It is checked to UTG who bets, tight passive calls...What do you do?

OP has the Td. I think KQ, K9, and Q9 are the three most likely better flush draws.
