PokerStars, €23.25 + €1.75 - Hold'em No Limit - 15/30 - 2 players
Hand delivered by Upswing Poker

SB: 620 (21 bb)

Pre-Flop: (45) Hero is BB with 7♥ 8♥
SB calls 15, Hero checks

Flop: (60) 3♥ 2♠ 5♠ (2 players)

According to the solver, this is a fold ( oppo is a reg)

whereas:

PokerStars, €23.25 + €1.75 - Hold'em No Limit - 30/60 - 3 players

BU: 150 (3 bb)
SB: 600 (10 bb)
BB (Hero): 750 (13 bb)

Pre-Flop: (90) Hero is BB with Q♠ 4♠
1 fold, SB calls 30, Hero checks

Flop: (120) 8♠ 9♥ K♣ (2 players)
SB bets 60, BB (Hero) folds
This is a call. To me the first hand looks much more as a call, compared to this. what do you think is the reason ?

I think, the reason is, that you are OOP in the first hand and actually IP in the 2nd hand, therefore you will be able to realize a lot more equity.

Anyway, I don't think, that such a weak BD should be a defend ever. Especially on such board.

Plug some ranges into Flopzilla and see what you should defend.

Btw, you can even shove 87s preflop vs a reg.

With Q4s you even have some SD value.

first hand is just very wet flop, I wouldn't be surprised some 2x folds
2nd you are IP and you play a ton of hands vs bets, similar spot when BB iso HU and you limp/call, check continuing ranges, they are super wide

idk if you should call it in this exact spot, just comparing this spot to ISO pot in HU where you are in position, so you call very wide
