Hold'em table

Holding 93 offsuit on the button is too weak to open raise even in 3-handed play, making an easy fold.

Button folded and KQs is strong heads-up versus the big blind, so I raise to 3bb to build the pot and take the initiative.

T6 suited has enough equity against a wide small-blind opening range, and the price is favorable with the call closing the action preflop.

I have a strong combo draw with KsQs on JsTs7c—flush draw plus straight outs to 9 or A—so a half-pot semi-bluff builds the pot and can fold out better hands.

Call the small one-third-pot continuation bet with a pair of tens; folding is too cautious, while raising with a weak kicker is unnecessary.

I have a strong combo draw with KsQs on a JsTs board (flush draw plus straight outs), so a turn semi-bluff builds the pot and applies pressure while I still have substantial equity if called.

I have a pair of tens and the call price is manageable relative to the pot. I’ll continue against possible bluffs or draws, while recognizing that stronger made hands are also in the opponent’s range.

I have the king-high flush on a paired board, which is strong enough to bet for value against straights, two pair, trips, and lower flushes. A roughly two-thirds pot bet extracts value while keeping worse made hands in.

The river completes several straight and flush draws, and the triple-barrel line is strong. My pair of tens is only a marginal bluff-catcher and is unlikely to be good often enough to call.

Pocket sevens are ahead of a random button-opening range in three-handed play, so I raise to 2.5bb to build the pot and take the initiative before the blinds act.

J9 offsuit is a marginal hand facing a button raise from the small blind, with the big blind still to act. Folding avoids playing out of position with a hand that can make dominated top pairs.

Defending KTs in the big blind against a button open getting good pot odds.

Check to the preflop raiser out of position with two overcards on a dry board.

Dry 9-high flop and I was the preflop raiser with a pair of sevens. A small c-bet takes the pot often and gets value from worse hands that float.

I have King-high with no straight or flush draws on a dry board out of position, making this an easy fold against the c-bet.

T3 offsuit is too weak to open profitably from the button facing the big blind, and calling would invite a difficult multiway pot.

84s is too weak to profitably complete or raise from the small blind out of position.

On the button in 3-handed play, A9o is well ahead of random holdings and makes a standard open raise to 2.5bb.

K4 offsuit is too weak to continue out of position against a button open, so folding is the highest-EV option.

75 suited has enough postflop playability to defend the big blind at favorable pot odds, especially with the small blind already folded.

I have no meaningful showdown value or immediate draw on this dry paired board. Checking keeps the pot small and gives the preflop raiser a chance to act.

Flopped trips on a dry paired board; making a small c-bet for value and protection against floats and flush draws.

My 7-high has almost no equity on this paired-ace board, and the bet offers too little incentive to chase rare runner-runner draws.

84s is a playable suited hand on the button in three-handed play, so I open to 2.5bb to take the initiative and pressure the blinds.

9♥5♠ is a weak offsuit hand from the small blind, and calling 200 more against the button raise risks playing out of position with poor equity.

Holding 32o out of position against a button raise is an easy fold despite getting reasonable pot odds.

A5 offsuit is a reasonable button open in a three-handed game; a modest raise applies pressure while keeping the pot manageable.

K3o is too weak to defend out of position against a button open with the big blind still behind.

J6o is too weak to continue out of position against a button open; calling 150 into a 400 pot leaves me dominated and poorly placed postflop.
