Hold'em table

J8 offsuit is a reasonable button open in three-handed play, leveraging position and initiative.

Q2 offsuit is too weak to continue against a raise out of position, and calling offers poor implied odds. Folding preserves my stack for better spots.

AKo in the big blind facing a button open is a clear value 3-bet. I'm going to 10bb because I'm out of position.

J8 offsuit is too weak to continue against a large 3-bet out of position with the small blind already folded.

Strong hand with Ace-King, raising to build the pot and put pressure on the blinds.

75o from the small blind facing a 3x button open, with the big blind still to act, is too weak to call out of position or to 3-bet profitably.

QJs is a strong, well-connected defending hand heads-up against a button min-raise. Calling preserves its playability without bloating the pot.

Check to the preflop raiser with a strong draw (flush draw plus gutshot), preserving the option to check-raise.

Top pair with top kicker is strong on this board, so I bet for value and to charge any flush or straight draws.

With only two undercards to the king and no meaningful immediate draw, calling the sizable flop bet is unlikely to realize enough equity heads-up.

Three-handed on the button, a wide opening range makes 95s a reasonable open, and a small 2.5x size keeps the risk low when only the two blinds are left to act.

8-high suited with a deuce is far too weak to defend the small blind against a button raise with the big blind still behind.

Holding a weak 8-3 suited hand out of position against a raise, this is a clear fold. The pot odds are not compelling enough to continue with such a marginal holding.

54 offsuit is a very weak button hand in a three-handed blind structure, and folding avoids entering with poor equity.

Blind-vs-blind with 96o, that's a reasonable hand to open from the small blind. Raising to 3bb takes the initiative and can win the pot right away.

A3 offsuit is too weak to defend against a small-blind raise out of position, especially with the poor kicker and no suitedness.

A8o on the button three-handed is a clear open-raise; 2.5x puts pressure on the blinds.

K3 suited is too weak to defend from the small blind against a button raise with the big blind still behind.

I have K7o in the big blind and only need to call 150 into a pot of 400, getting good immediate odds against a button open. Folding is too weak, and raising with this marginal hand unnecessarily bloats the pot out of position.

I flopped trips with a king kicker, so I bet for value to build the pot and charge any draws or weaker made hands.

Ace-high has reasonable equity against a BB donk-bet range on this paired, dry board that includes many weak Tx and bluffs. The price is about 28% (350 to win 1250), so calling and re-evaluating on the turn is better than folding.

I have trips with a decent kicker on a paired board, so I bet to extract value from Ax hands and charge club draws.

Top pair (aces and sevens) with a weak kicker is a good bluff-catcher against a double-barrel donk bet that includes club draws and tens. It beats enough of his range to call, but raising would mostly fold out worse hands and get called by better ones.

A8 is top pair with a weak kicker against a range that led the flop and turn, so it has showdown value but gets called mostly by better aces and 7x. Missed club draws will fold to a bet, so checking back is best.
