fold or call?

You probably shouldn't be playing NL500 if you are asking this question. It's a pretty standard fold as you don't have the implied odds to set mine.

its not NL500 couse it is a swedish site with swedish currency. its like NL50€. the qustions are pretty std things but i just wanna here from other ppl so im not doing anything wrong. If u dont ask u will never know..

You have about 7.5:1 (12%) to hit a set on the flop but then it all comes to your implied odds. You can call more loosely or more tightly depending on how much money you think villain will put in the pot after the flop.

Since villain is supertight in this specific hand I would call if it was for 10% of my stack or less and villain had me covered. The bet of 47.50 is equal to ~18,3% of villains stack which gives you terrible odds to call. If villain instead had a stack of $475, which makes the bet exactly 10% of his stack, this is a call, given that he has a superstrong hand that he probably wont fold if you hit a set.

Hand #2 is an easy fold in my opinion. Your (and villains) stack size doesn't give you the right implied odds to call here, especially out of position. Suited connectors and gappers play well postflop only with deep stacks and position is essential to get maximum value.

I was going to ask where do you find 2.5/5 FR game..
PS correct fold.

1st hand I would fold as well. 2nd hand I would call actually. Despite being OOP, the hand plays well postflop.

First hand easy fold, second hand I would call vs wider range but this specific villain seems pretty tight, I don't think we can call.

Quite opposite, if villains range is tighter we should be more inclined to call this hand, if someone is 3betting very wide it is better to fold because when we hit it is less likely that we gonna get paid, and vs tight players we can get paid off easily when we hit straight/flush/two pair vs their overpairs/TPTK etc.

You could be right, I'm not that sure about this when I think about it again.
