I feel sorry for you… You really get trapped horribly in between here. But the first real opportunity I see for you to get out is on 5th street. I’d take it.

You're getting odds to draw to a Q all the way through so those streets are straight forward.

You can dump it when its 2 to you on the river. You're just wasting money on this river; there's no way you are winning here.

Thanks all to your comments. You were all pretty much correct, as I was behind from the start. Still, tough to get away from. Thanks again!

Not folding on the river when its two bets to you is a leak. I dont care how big the pot is.

When deciding to call two bets on the river or not your decision should definitely be influenced by the size of the pot.

Well obviously, the size of the pot is always the most important thing to look at when dertermining what to do. It was just the way I choose to express the fact that, with how this hand has played, there is no way you are winning.

Sure if it was HU, calling would be ok. But when you call for the first time on the river, you have to beat three opponents who really like their hands, plus MP3, who has bet and raised at every pont in the hand is yet to act after SB's CR.

Tough tough tough situation.
Normaly I would fold that on the flop. You've got 3 players who seem really confident about their hand raising and re-raising each other. What are the chances you have the best hand here? But since the pot is so big your call makes sence.

After all this raising war on the flop, you know it's going to cost you 8 more big bets (!) just to get to the showdown. I dont think it's worth it. You've got only 2 outs to improve and you still dont know if theyre gonna give you the nuts.

Get out while your -4BB on the hand before you go -12!!
