Hold'em table

Pocket eights are a strong 3-handed opening hand from the button; a standard raise builds the pot and applies pressure on the blinds.

94o out of position from the small blind against a button open, with the big blind still left to act, is a clear fold.

Facing a 3x button open out of position, T6s lacks sufficient playability and equity to justify calling 200 more chips.

42o is too weak to open from the button in a 3-handed game with two players left to act, so folding is the lowest-loss option.

Q4o is too weak to complete or open raise out of position against the big blind.

62o is an unplayable trash hand preflop even on the button 3-handed, making this a clear fold.

Weak suited-adjacent-ish 64o heads-up out of position in the SB; limping or raising with 4-high kicker against the BB has poor equity. Cheap fold is fine.

Q4o offsuit from the button is a weak hand; with only two opponents behind and a likely defended blind, folding is cheapest.

Blind vs blind after a button fold, Q5o is a reasonable raise from the small blind against a single opponent, so I'm opening to 3bb to take the initiative.

Defending big blind with QTo against a small blind open raise. We have position postflop and good pot odds.

The ace-high board favors my preflop raising range, so a small c-bet uses that range advantage. My hand has almost no showdown value, which makes it a reasonable bluff candidate.

I hold only a gutshot straight draw with queen-high on an ace-high board, offering insufficient equity to continue even against a small continuation bet.

Three-handed on the button, T6o sits at the edge of a wide stealing range, so a small open applies pressure to the blinds cheaply.

Q4o is a very weak hand out of position against a button raise, making this a routine fold.

King-seven offsuit is too weak to defend against a 2.25x raise heads-up, especially out of position. Folding preserves chips for better spots.

On the button in 3-handed play, Q8o is within a standard opening range to steal blinds with positional advantage.

7s8s suited connector is a fine cheap call facing a 2x raise from SB; I have position-free odds and can flop big or fold.

Getting 6:1 on a min-raise, K3o has enough raw equity in a 3-way pot to justify defending the big blind despite playing out of position.

I have 7-high with no draw on a paired board; checking is free and I can fold to pressure.

K3 offhand has only a gutshot to a ten and a weak overcard on a wet paired board, out of position in a three-way pot against the preflop raiser. Checking keeps the pot small and lets me take a free card if it's checked through.

In a 3-way pot on a paired, wet board, top pair with a weak kicker benefits from pot control and realizing equity in position.

I hold 7s8s with no draw on a J-J-Q-3 board; with three players and no aggression shown, checking is the only sensible line.

Bottom pair with no heart on a paired, three-heart board is weak but has some showdown value, so I check rather than bet into two opponents.

I have top pair with a weak kicker and a flush draw out there; checking behind controls the pot and allows me to realize showdown value.

I hold 8-high with no draw; everyone checked through, so checking to showdown is free and a bluff has little fold equity against two checked streets.

We have a full house (threes full of jacks) after the action was checked down; betting about two-thirds of the pot gets value from flushes, queens and pocket pairs. Only jacks, Q3, or pocket queens or jacks beat us, and those hands would likely have bet earlier.

Holding Queens and Jacks, our hand is well underrepresented after checking down flop and turn. We only need 28.5% equity against seat 2's stabbed bet, which frequently contains missed draws.

I hold 7-high with no draw that got there; two opponents showed river strength with a bet and call. Calling 400 into a 1400 pot with air has no equity justification.
