Hold'em table

K5 offsuit is a reasonable button open three-handed. Raising to 250 gives us a chance to win the blinds while retaining position if called.

Q4o is too weak to defend out of position against an open raise from the button.

A2 suited-less (Ad 2s) is a reasonable defend in the big blind against a button min-ish open of 2.5bb, getting 400 pot odds with only 150 to call; ace-high blocks some strong hands, and a 3-bet bluff is unnecessary. Calling keeps the pot small.

Top pair with an ace on a board of Ah 4h Kd, heads-up and out of position against a button raiser. I'll bet about 3/4 pot for value and to charge flush and straight draws, while keeping the pot manageable with a weak kicker.

Middle pair has enough equity to call this flop bet in position. I can reassess if the big blind continues betting on the turn.

Top pair with an ace on A-K-6-4 rainbow-ish board, in position? No, I'm out of position as BB acting first. Bet about half pot for value and protection against draws and hands like Kx, 6x, and 4x; the opponent called the flop so has some piece.

Second pair is strong enough to continue against this modest turn bet, especially with missed heart draws and weaker hands possible. Raising would mostly get action from better hands.

I have aces and sixes with an ace kicker, which is likely best. Seat_1 called the flop and turn, so they probably hold an ace or a king. A moderate value bet of about a third of the pot should get called by worse aces or kings.

The river bet is small relative to the pot. My king beats missed draws and can split with many other kings, so calling is worthwhile.

A6o is a standard button open in 3-handed play to apply pressure and utilize position.

KJo is a decent hand in the small blind against a button open to 2.25bb, but 3-betting out of position is thin and folding gives up too much. A call at 175 more is a reasonable price, though the big blind still has to act behind me.

Eight-five offsuit plays poorly out of position in a raised multiway pot, despite the favorable price to call.

Top pair with a king kicker on a dry ace-high flop, heads-up and first to act out of position. A bet of about half the pot gets value from worse aces and draws and denies equity to hands like 5x and 6x.

Flopped two pair on a relatively dry board facing a donk bet; raising for value against Ax hands and to build the pot.

Top pair with a king kicker on A-4-6 has decent equity against a button that could be raising with a wide range. The call costs 525 into a pot of 1625, roughly 24% equity needed, and raising would mostly fold out worse hands.

I hold king-high with a gutshot (Kc Js on 4d Ah 6c 8s) and no made hand. The button raised the flop and I only called, so checking to control the pot and keep my equity is better than betting into a strong range.

Holding two pair (Aces and Sixes) on a draw-heavy board, I bet for value against weaker Aces and straight draws.

Top pair with a king kicker and a backdoor gutshot to a straight; the pot odds are good enough to call the 1300 bet without raising.

King-high with a jack is a pure bluff-catcher at best. I led the flop and then checked the turn and called a bet, so my line is marked as weak-to-medium. Seat_2 has bet every street, so I check and let the hand go to showdown or face one more bet.

We hold two pair with Aces and Sixes on a runout where straight draws like 75 completed and higher two-pair combos like AQ and A8 are possible. Checking back allows us to realize our showdown value against weaker Ax without risking a river check-raise.

6d Th is a weak offsuit hand with poor connectivity, and calling out of position against two players is unprofitable even on the button. I'm folding without adding a chat message.

Q9 offsuit is strong enough to open heads-up against the big blind. Raising to three big blinds gives it a chance to win the pot now.

Folding 96o in the big blind against a 3bb small blind open as it lacks sufficient equity and playability.

On the button in a three-handed game, 7-6 offsuit is playable as a modest open-raise. Position gives it a chance to realize its equity postflop.

A2o plays poorly out of position facing a button open, making fold the standard play.

Q9o in the big blind getting 375 to 125 (3:1) against a button min-open-ish raise of 2.25bb; the hand is playable enough heads-up with position disadvantage, and a call is better than a marginal 3-bet or a fold.

Heads up out of position on 8-8-4 with Q-high and a 9 kicker. I'm probably ahead of many of the button's hands, and a small bet of about half the pot gets value from worse and folds out overcards.

I have position and a gutshot straight draw. Calling the small flop bet lets me see the turn without committing too much against a possible eight.

I have top pair (queens) with a 9 kicker on an 8-8-4-Q board, and the button just called my flop bet, so I'm likely ahead of many of its calling hands. A bet of 400 into a 1000 pot gets value from worse queens and pairs, and it charges draws and overcards. Checking would give up that value, so I bet.

I have only a gutshot against a second bet. The price is too high for the few likely clean outs.

Q8o is at the lower fringe of opening hands on the button; folding avoids playing a marginal offsuit holding deep-stacked.

9-8 offsuit in the small blind gets 3-to-1 pot odds against the big blind in a three-handed pot, so completing is profitable and cheap while keeping the hand playable.

With 6-2 offsuit, I can see the flop for free rather than inflate the pot out of position.

Heads-up on a 3-4-Q flop with 9-8 and a gutshot draw (5 or 7 would need... actually 5-6-7 needs two cards), I hold only 9-high with backdoor draws. A small bet of 100 into a 200 pot as first to act probes for a fold from a check-range opponent at low cost.

The small bet gives me a cheap turn card with a gutshot straight draw, and I have position for the rest of the hand.

Board 3s Qc 4h Qh; I hold 9s8h, a weak hand with no pair and only backdoor potential. Seat_1 just called the flop bet and checked preflop, so their range is capped. A small bet of 200 into a 400 pot is a cheap semi-bluff that can fold out Queen-less hands like underpairs, while limiting my loss.}

I have only a gutshot straight draw and little showdown value. Calling 200 into a 600-chip pot is unlikely to be profitable.

On the button in a 3-handed game, K5 suited is a decent hand. A small raise to 250 takes the initiative and puts pressure on both blinds.

T6 suited is too weak to call a button raise from the small blind, especially with the big blind still to act.

73s is too weak out of position to defend against a 2.5bb button raise.
