Who of you are calling this, given we're ~150BB deep? When calculating, what is the estimated chance of stacking when we hit?

Edit: oh I forgot, villain is 21/8/1.5

you are risking $2 to win $33
You have 2 outs, 2 to 46 to win.., the question is if you can stack him though, and if he doesn't hit his Q,K,A. i would fold this one.

Easy call

Edit. I would call this with 100bb stacks too.

yeah pretty standard call.

Easy call. You need to be able to make back 10x your call on average (you'll hit the flop 1 in 8 times, but still be outdrawn some of these times). You can make up to 17x here.

If he's very weak tight - or perceives you as weak tight - and therefore won't pay you off as often, there might be a bit of a question mark, but I'm never folding this.

There are 50 unseen cards. You have 2 outs three times on the flop. Your chances of not hitting a 4 on the first card are 48/50 - on the second 47/49 and on the third 46/48. The chance that all three of these things happen (ie you don't hit your set on the flop) is (48/50)*(47/49)*(46/48) = 88.2%. Thus you hit your set on the flop 11.8% of the time - or about 1 in 8.5.

If you can safely assume that he doesn't have a 4 in his hand, we have fewer unseen cards in the denominator and the chances get slightly better. The odds of hitting a set also improve with the likelihood that he checks behind on the flop, as we then get to see 4 cards. So the more trappy/passive he is, the better.
