Action timeline

Model's stated reason

K9 suited is a strong enough button opening hand in three-handed play, with position and initiative.

Model's stated reason

Q9s from the SB facing a 2.5x button open in 3-handed play: 3-betting is preferred over flatting out of position with the BB still behind, and Q9s has good blockers and playability as a semi-bluff. A raise to 10bb is standard sizing.

Model's stated reason

Facing a large 3-bet with KQo out of position and another player still to act behind me; not worth continuing.

Model's stated reason

K9 suited has sufficient playability in position to defend against the small blind's 3-bet at this price. Calling preserves flexibility rather than inflating the pot with a marginal holding.

Model's stated reason

The ace-high flop favors my 3-bet range, and I hold a backdoor flush draw, so a small c-bet of about one-third pot should get folds from many of the button's pairs and floats.

Model's stated reason

K-high has little immediate equity on this ace-high board against a 3-bettor's continuation bet, with only weak backdoor possibilities. Folding preserves the stack.

Model's stated reason

98s on the button 3-handed is a clear open; a standard 2.5bb raise to steal the blinds with a playable hand in position.

Model's stated reason

27o is a trash hand facing a raise; folding is correct even in the small blind.

Model's stated reason

7-3 offsuit is far too weak to defend against a button raise, even at this small size.

Model's stated reason

Button raise with Ace-high suited-type hand to build pot and leverage position against two blinds.

Model's stated reason

8-2 offsuit is far too weak to defend from the small blind against a button raise, especially with the big blind still behind.

Model's stated reason

A8o in the big blind against a button 3x open is well ahead of the button's wide range and easily a profitable call at these pot odds, while 3-betting it mostly folds out worse hands. Calling keeps the hand in play.

Model's stated reason

Ace-high with a backdoor flush draw on a paired, broadway-heavy board that favors the button's raising range, so I check to the preflop raiser and keep the pot small. I can defend against a small c-bet.

Model's stated reason

Board favors my preflop raising range; continuation bet with ace-high to apply pressure after opponent's check.

Model's stated reason

Getting about 3.9:1 against a small c-bet, ace-high has enough showdown value and equity against the button's wide range to continue.

Model's stated reason

I hold the nut flush draw plus a gutshot to Broadway, but the paired board makes semi-bluffing out of position risky. Checking keeps the pot controlled, and I can call a reasonable bet.

Model's stated reason

Villain's turn check signals weakness after two streets of my aggression; a bluff bet with ace-high on this paired, straight-capable board can fold out medium pairs and busted draws.

Model's stated reason

Ace-high with only a gutshot (4 outs, about 9%) is well short of the roughly 29% equity needed to call 900 into 3150, and it is weak against a turn barrel on a paired, connected board. Fold.

Model's stated reason

Q3 offsuit is a weak button holding in a three-handed game and does not merit entering against both blinds.

Model's stated reason

Pocket deuces in a blind-vs-blind spot are a standard SB raise; raising to 3x takes the initiative and can win the pot preflop.

Model's stated reason

5h7d offsuit is weak, facing a raise with poor pot odds and no position advantage; folding preserves chips for better spots.

Model's stated reason

43o is too weak to open from the button in 3-handed play with both blinds left to act; folding is the standard play.

Model's stated reason

AdTd is a strong hand heads-up against only the big blind; raising to isolate and build the pot with a favorable hand.

Model's stated reason

8-high suited has sufficient playability heads-up versus a small blind raise, and the pot odds support defending.

Model's stated reason

I have air with ace-high and a backdoor draw, but my preflop raise gives me range advantage on this King-high board, so a half-pot continuation bet applies pressure.

Model's stated reason

I have an open-ended straight draw on this flop and am getting a reasonable price to continue in position.

Model's stated reason

I have ace-high with no pair, no draw, and opponent has called two streets already, suggesting a decent holding; better to check and see the river cheaply rather than fire another bluff into resistance.

Model's stated reason

Betting the turn after the check applies pressure to missed overcards while retaining an open-ended straight draw if called.

Model's stated reason

I have ace-high with no pair, no draw, and seat_1 check-raised the turn after calling two streets; folding is the clear value-preserving play.

Model's stated reason

KQ offsuit is a strong button hand; raise to build the pot and take initiative against blinds.

Model's stated reason

7-3 offsuit is far too weak to defend from the small blind against a button raise, especially out of position.

Model's stated reason

Getting 450:200 against a wide button open in 3-handed play, 76o has enough equity and playability to defend from the big blind. A call is better than a 3-bet here.

Model's stated reason

76o has completely missed a K-J-2 two-tone board that strongly favors the button's raising range, so check and plan to fold to a bet.

Model's stated reason

I have top pair king with a strong queen kicker on a dry-ish board, so I should bet for value and protect against draws.

Model's stated reason

76o has no pair and no real draw on K-J-2 with two hearts, facing a 2/3-pot c-bet. Folding is clearly correct.
