Hold'em table

A4 offsuit is too weak to open profitably on the button in this format, especially with a dominated ace risk. Folding preserves chips.

With the button folded, completing the small blind costs only 50 more chips. 7-5 offsuit is worth seeing a flop but too weak to build a larger pot out of position.

J5o is weak; checking the limped pot in the big blind lets me see a free flop, and I'll have position on the small blind after it.

I have no pair or meaningful draw, so I’ll check rather than build the pot.

J5 offhand on Q92 two-tone has only a gutshot (a K gives me nothing, a T makes J-T... actually a T gives me no straight), so it has little equity; I'll check and take a free card in the limped pot. A small stab is possible, but checking keeps the pot small with a weak hand.

Seven-five has little showdown value and no meaningful draw, but betting this coordinated turn is unlikely to fold out enough stronger hands. Checking avoids investing more chips.

I have an open-ended straight draw (any K or 8), and my opponent has checked twice, so their range looks weak. A two-thirds-pot semi-bluff can take the pot now and still has 8 outs if called.

Seven-high has no meaningful draw, so calling the turn bet is not worthwhile.

K6 offsuit is playable as a button open in a three-handed game. Raising gives me a chance to win the blinds while retaining position if called.

54o out of position in the small blind facing a button open, with the big blind still to act, is a clear fold.

J5 offsuit is too weak to defend against a button raise in this heads-up-to-the-flop situation, especially out of position.

Three-handed on the button, K4o is a standard open against two blinds; a small raise to 2.5bb applies pressure cheaply.

AJo is a strong hand against a button open and benefits from applying pressure while playing out of position. A 3-bet to 850 builds value and can deny equity.

Five-deuce suited is too weak to call a large three-bet with the original raiser still to act.

K4o opened on the button, facing a 3-bet to 8.5bb from the SB; calling 6bb out of position... actually in position, but it is dominated too often and plays poorly. Folding is the standard play.

QTo is a reasonable button opening hand three-handed, and a 2.5bb raise pressures the blinds while retaining playability.

QJo is strong enough to 3-bet against a button open in a three-handed game. Raising also puts pressure on the big blind rather than inviting a multiway pot out of position.

Q6o facing a button open and a small blind 3-bet is far too weak to continue, and the opener is still left to act behind me.

QTo offsuit is too weak to continue facing a 10bb 3-bet out of position-equivalent heads-up action, especially with a shallow initial open size. Folding preserves chips.

64 offsuit is too weak to open profitably from the button against two unknown opponents.

A9s is a strong hand for a blind-vs-blind spot out of the small blind, so raising to 3bb for value and initiative is standard.

A7 offsuit is a strong heads-up blind-versus-blind hand with an ace blocker. I will 3-bet for value and initiative against the small blind's likely wide opening range.

A9s holds enough equity against a wide blind-vs-blind 3-bet range. The price is 700 to win a 2000 pot, and an ace blocker plus nut-flush potential make calling better than folding.

Out of position against a 3-bettor's range on a K-Q board that hits them hard, ace-high with a gutshot (J for broadway) should check and play pot control. Donking isn't warranted here.

A small continuation bet applies pressure to the caller’s medium pairs and missed holdings while retaining a favorable risk-reward ratio on this coordinated board.

Ace-high with no pair, no flush draw and only weak backdoors, out of position on a K-Q board that strongly favors the 3-bettor's range. Even at a good price, calling here has too little equity and playability.

Three-handed on the button, J3s is a playable steal with suited equity and position, so a standard 2.5bb open is profitable against the blinds.

Q9 suited is a playable defending hand against a button min-raise, with the big blind still behind and good implied odds.

T4 suited is marginal, but calling 150 closes the action in a 600-chip pot. The price and no rake make a call worthwhile.

Q-high has limited showdown value and little incentive to build a multiway pot on this connected, two-heart flop. Checking retains flexibility.

With no pair or immediate draw in a three-way pot, I prefer to check and see what the button does.

Top pair with a weak kicker on a dry-ish board, checked to me in position in a 3-way pot. A small value/protection bet gets called by worse Jx, 5x and draws while keeping the pot manageable.

Q-high with no heart, no pair, and no meaningful draw is too weak to continue versus a multiway flop bet.

T4 has no pair or immediate draw on this flop. Out of position against a bet, the backdoor possibilities do not justify a call.
