Hold'em table

Suited T9 has strong playability on the button in a three-handed game, so I open-raise to build initiative.

6-2 offsuit is too weak to defend the small blind against a button raise with the big blind still to act.

Getting 150 to win 400 (27% equity needed) in the big blind against a button 2.5x open; 53o is a marginal defend, but it has straight potential and the price is good.

53o has almost no equity on 977 with two diamonds, and the button's range hits this board well. Checking keeps the pot small, and I can give up if they bet.

Betting for value and protection with top pair plus a gutshot straight draw on this paired board.

53 offhand on 977 with two diamonds has no pair, only a weak gutshot needing a 6 (which also puts a straight on board for others). Facing a c-bet, folding is best.

QJo is a strong button opening hand three-handed, so I raise to build the pot and put pressure on the blinds.

76o from the small blind facing a button open, with the big blind still to act, is a clear fold; calling out of position with an offsuit connector is unprofitable.

T5 offsuit is too weak to defend against a button raise at this stack depth.

T3 offsuit is too weak to open from the button in 3-handed play with two players still to act; folding is standard.

With 6-3 offsuit in the small blind facing the big blind, folding avoids defending a very weak hand out of position.

J8 offsuit is a marginal button holding; folding avoids entering a potentially difficult multiway pot.

T4 suited is playable heads-up for another 50 chips, but not strong enough to build a large pot out of position.

54o in the big blind against a small-blind limp plays fine as a free check with position; raising here has little fold equity and a weak hand.

I have no pair or meaningful draw on this paired, diamond-heavy flop. Checking avoids investing more with a weak hand.

In position in a limped pot with air, a small bet on a paired high board can take it down cheaply when SB checks. Our 54 has almost no showdown value, and the backdoor diamond adds a little equity.

Ten-high has no meaningful draw on this paired, diamond-heavy flop. Calling the half-pot bet out of position is unlikely to be profitable.

JTo is a reasonable button open in three-handed play. Raising to 250 pressures the blinds while keeping the pot manageable.

82o in the small blind facing a button open with the big blind still behind is a clear fold.

K6 offsuit is a weak defender versus a button open and plays poorly out of position. Folding preserves chips.

3-handed on the button, 87o is a standard open; raise to 2.5bb to steal the blinds.

8-6 offsuit is too weak to defend profitably from the small blind against a button raise with the big blind still to act.

KTo has enough equity to defend the big blind against a button open at this price, but is not strong enough to build a large pot out of position.

Top pair with a moderate kicker is strong enough to continue, but checking to the preflop raiser keeps weaker hands and bluffs in the pot.

The KQ6 board favors my button raising range, so a small c-bet should take the pot often enough. My 87 has almost no showdown value, which makes it a reasonable bluff.

Top pair is strong enough to continue against this small flop bet, but raising would risk building a large pot against stronger kings and two-pair hands.

Top and bottom pair improved to two pair on the turn. A 600-chip bet gets value from weaker made hands and charges straight and flush draws.

I hold 8-7 high with an open-ended straight draw (a 9 makes the nut straight), but a 9 could complete a flush if clubs come. That gives roughly 8 outs, about 17%. I would be calling 600 into a pot of 2110 and need about 28% equity, so implied odds against the big blind's leading bet aren't enough to justify continuing.
