Hold'em table

92 offsite is one of the weakest hands and too weak to open even from the button in 3-handed play against two players with deep stacks. Folding costs nothing.

With the button folded, A7 suited is well ahead of the big blind's defending range heads-up. Raising applies pressure and builds a pot with a strong ace.

AQ suited is strong against a small-blind raise, and I have position postflop. A three-bet builds value and puts pressure on weaker hands.

A7 offsuit is too weak to continue from the small blind after a 3-bet to 10bb, especially against the big blind's strong range.

AJo is a strong button opening hand three-handed and benefits from initiative. I use a standard 2.5bb open size.

43 offsuit is too weak to defend from the small blind against a button raise, especially with the big blind still to act.

A7o in the big blind facing a 2.5x button open in 3-handed play is well ahead of the button's wide range. We're getting 400:150 pot odds, so calling is clearly profitable. A 3-bet is also possible, but calling keeps dominated hands in.

Ace-high with a backdoor draw, out of position against the button's open on a board that favors the preflop raiser. Checking keeps the pot small, and I can decide whether to continue against a c-bet.

Betting top pair with top kicker for value and protection on this coordinated board. A medium sizing targets worse jacks, tens, draws, and pocket pairs.

A7o on JT5 has only an ace overcard and weak backdoor draws, with no pair and no real draw. That makes it too weak to call a 73%-pot c-bet out of position when I need about 30% equity.

8-2 offsuit is too weak to open profitably from the button.

Blind vs blind with a suited hand; T3s is a reasonable open from the SB, so I'm raising to 3bb to pressure the big blind's wide range.

4-2 offsuit is far too weak to defend against the small blind's raise heads-up.

A3o on the button in 3-handed play is a clear open-raise; a 2.5x size steals the blinds often and keeps position with an ace blocker if called.

5-7 offsuit is too weak to defend from the small blind against a button open with the big blind still behind.

Pocket nines are strong against a button opening range, so I’m three-betting for value from the big blind.

A3o is dominated by much of the big blind's range after a large 10bb 3-bet, and the calling price isn't good enough to make up for the reverse implied odds. Folding is the disciplined choice.

J4 offsuit is a weak button opening hand in this setup; folding avoids playing a dominated range.

Completing costs 50 chips with favorable pot odds. T2 offsuit is weak, so I prefer a low-cost limp to a raise.

A3o is well ahead of a small blind's limping range, and raising from the big blind wins the pot often or gets heads-up play with position and an ace blocker. Checking is fine too, but an isolation raise to 4x should profit against a capped range.

T2 offsuit is too weak to defend against a 4bb raise, even with position heads-up.

On the button in a three-handed game, J5 offsuit is a marginal but playable open. A small raise uses position without committing much of the stack.

96s from the small blind facing a button open, with the big blind still left to act, plays poorly out of position. Folding is standard; 3-betting it as a bluff is possible, but a mix that leans toward folding is fine.

Defend the big blind getting favorable pot odds with suited-connected 7-6 against a small button open.

Check the weak gutshot on an ace-high board; this preserves equity without bloating the pot out of position.

A small continuation bet applies pressure on an ace-high flop that favors my preflop raising range. I also have a gutshot straight draw if called.

We have only a gutshot to a five and no pair on an ace-high board; folding to the continuation bet is preferable.
