K3 offsuit is too weak to profitably open from the button at this stack depth, especially with a poor kicker and no suitedness.

Calling 50 into a pot of 150 gives good pot odds with a suited hand, and raising would risk too much against the big blind's likely call.

AQo is well ahead of a small-blind limping range, so I raise for value and to take the initiative. A raise to 4bb is a standard size against a limp.

J2s is too weak to continue against a raise to 4bb, and calling would put in a large portion of my stack with poor equity. Folding preserves chips for better spots.

Weak offsuit hand with no potential, folding preflop to avoid investing chips with poor equity.

AJs is a strong hand in a small-blind vs big-blind spot, so raising for value to 3bb is standard.

A4 offsuit is too weak to defend against a small-blind raise heads-up from the big blind, especially out of position.

J8o on the button in a 3-handed game is a standard open-raise, and with only the blinds left to act it has good steal value.

A6 suited has enough equity and playability to defend the small blind against a button min-raise in this three-handed spot.

Calling 150 with T♣J♣ offers good pot odds and a playable suited hand in position relative to the small blind, while avoiding unnecessary risk out of position against two opponents.

Check the ace-high gutshot with a backdoor nut-flush draw in this multiway raised pot, preserving flexibility against later action.

I have only J-high with no made hand on a dry board, so checking keeps the pot small and lets me see a free turn card.

Top pair on a dry, low board after both opponents checked. A bet of about half the pot gets value from worse eights and draws, and protects my hand against overcards.indds' equity.'

The small continuation bet offers favorable immediate pot odds with two overcards to the board, some backdoor spade potential, and the possibility that an ace is best on later streets.

I missed this flop with only overcards and no real draw, facing a bet and a call into a multiway pot. Folding avoids paying more with little chance of being best.

We have the nut flush on a coordinated board and should value-bet against smaller flushes, straights, sets, and strong one-pair hands. A substantial sizing builds the pot while retaining calls from worse made hands.

Top pair with a decent kicker on a draw-heavy board; I need about 29% equity to call and have enough against a mix of draws, weaker 8s and value hands, while raising would isolate me against stronger hands.

I hold the nut flush on a coordinated board and should value-bet against straights, sets, and lower flushes. A substantial but non-jamming sizing targets the opponent's strong turn-calling range.

The small blind led the turn and then bet big on a river that completes both the flush and straight draws. That line is heavily weighted toward flushes, straights, sets and two pair, so a pair of 8s can't find the 29% equity needed to call.

AJo is a strong button opening hand three-handed. Raising to 3bb applies pressure and builds value against weaker blind ranges.

J5o is a weak offsuit hand out of position against a preflop raise, so folding avoids putting more chips in with poor equity.

83o is out of position against a 3x button open and plays poorly after the flop. It sits at the bottom of a big blind defending range, so folding is fine.

2-5 offsuit is very weak; folding is the correct play.

A8o is a strong hand blind-vs-blind after the button folds, so I'm raising to 3bb for value and to take the initiative out of position.

A4 offsuit is too weak to defend against a small-blind raise heads-up without position.

In three-handed play the button opens wide, and K2o sits at the edge of a standard opening range. A small raise to 2.5bb applies fold pressure to both blinds.

9-4 offsuit is too weak to defend from the small blind against a button raise, especially out of position with the big blind still behind.

QJo is strong enough to call a single button raise from the big blind, getting favorable pot odds of about 2.7 to 1. Folding would give up too much equity, while raising risks value against a stronger range.

I have no made hand on this ace-high paired board, so checking keeps the pot small and lets me see the turn for free.

The dry A55 board strongly favors the preflop raiser's range, so a small c-bet gets folds from many of the big blind's hands. My king-high blocker also works well as a bluff here.

No pair or draw on a paired ace-high board, and facing a continuation bet. Overcards are likely dominated, so folding is correct.
