Hold'em table

Button raise with Ace-high suited-ish offsuit hand, standard steal attempt in 3-handed game.

I have Qd Ac, a decent hand but not strong enough to raise preflop. Calling 200 to see a flop is reasonable given the pot odds and my position.

J9 offsuit is marginal out of position in a multiway pot, but the price is favorable and calling keeps the pot manageable. A 3-bet would be too ambitious here.

Board is paired with 55, and I hold Ac which is a strong kicker but not a made hand. Checking keeps the pot small and allows me to control the hand on this wet flop.

I have no pair and only backdoor flush potential on a three-way paired flop. Checking keeps the pot small and preserves the option to continue if I improve.

Board is dry with a paired low card; both opponents checked, so I take the initiative with a continuation bet as the preflop raiser with Ace-high.

Calling 450 into a 1200 pot with Qd Ac on a 5d 5c 2c flop is reasonable; I have an overcard and backdoor flush potential, and the pot odds justify continuing without committing more chips.

I have only two overcards to the board, no meaningful draw, and must call a sizable bet with another player already in. Folding avoids investing further with a weak multiway hand.

Board is paired with 5s on turn, my Ac-Qd is vulnerable to sets and two-pairs; opponent raised flop and I called, so checking keeps the pot controlled and avoids building a big pot with a marginal hand.

I have ace-high with no pair or draw; opponent called my flop bet so barreling further with air is risky, better to check and reassess on the river.

The board is paired with a Ten on the river, and my Ace-high hand is unlikely to be best. Since checking is legal and the opponent has shown strength, I will check to control the pot and avoid bluffing into a likely made hand.

My ace kicker with the board pair of 5s is a decent river hand, and opponent's check-check line on turn/river suggests weakness, so a moderate value bet should extract chips from worse pairs.

The board is paired with 5s and I hold the nut queen, giving me a strong second pair. Calling 700 to see a showdown is profitable against a likely bluff or weaker hand.

I have 8c Ad, which is weak offsuit and unsuited against a raised pot. With no action history and a small pot, folding minimizes losses.

With the button folded, 9♠6♠ has decent playability heads-up from the small blind. Completing cheaply keeps weaker hands in and avoids inflating the pot out of position.

QJs is strong heads-up versus a limping SB; raising to isolate and build the pot while I have good equity.

9♠6♠ is a weak hand out of position, and the raise makes the call too costly without enough equity.

K4 offsuit is a reasonable button steal in a three-handed game. Raise to 250 to apply pressure while keeping the open size modest.

J2 offsuit is a weak hand facing a raise; folding from the small blind is standard.

2s8s is a weak hand that does not justify calling a raise from the button, especially after the small blind already folded. Folding preserves my stack against a likely strong range.

Steal attempt from the button in a 3-handed pot with a speculative hand; a raise applies pressure and can win blinds outright.

I have a weak offsuit hand (Tc4s) and face a raise to 300 with only 250 to call. The pot odds don't justify continuing with such a speculative hand, so folding minimizes losses.

7♣3♥ is a very weak offsuit hand, and calling 200 more against a 3x button raise is not worthwhile.

Calling the big blind with King-high suited-ish is a standard, low-variance play from the button. I'll see a flop and play position rather than fold or raise with a marginal hand.

Complete the small blind for 50 more with decent pot odds against a limp; raising 9-6 offsuit would be too ambitious.

I'm the big blind with Q8 offsuit and everyone limped; no reason to raise, just check and see a cheap flop.

I have no pair or immediate draw, and checking keeps the pot small while preserving my backdoor possibilities.

I have middle pair (88) with a decent kicker; betting half pot for value and to deny equity from overcards.

My 7d Kh is weak on a 4s 8d Jh flop with a raise to 150; calling is a bad spot and I have no clear path to winning. Folding preserves my stack for better opportunities.

I have only six-high with no meaningful draw, so calling 150 requires too much equity. Raising as a bluff against the preflop raiser is not worthwhile here.

A3 offsuit is a reasonable button open three-handed. A modest raise pressures the blinds while keeping the pot manageable.

Kc5c is a weak offsuit hand that cannot stand a raise from the button. Folding avoids putting more chips into a pot where I am out of position and likely dominated.
