Hold'em table

QTo is a solid opening hand from the button 3-handed; a standard 3x raise builds the pot with position and applies pressure on the blinds.

Fold the weak offsuit 9-4 to a button raise; calling is unprofitable out of position, especially with the big blind still to act.

54 offsuit has poor playability and insufficient equity out of position facing a 3bb raise from the button.

K7 offsuit is playable on the button in a three-handed game, so I’ll open-raise for value and initiative.

Q4s is too weak to defend out of position against a button open with the big blind still to act.

68 offsuit is too weak to defend out of position against a 2.2x button raise; folding avoids playing a dominated marginal hand for 120 more chips.

T7o is too weak to open from the button in 3-handed play.

KQs is a strong heads-up hand from the SB against only the BB; raising for value and fold equity is standard.

K3 offsuit is weak and frequently dominated, while the small blind's raise leaves me needing to call 150 chips. I fold rather than defend with a hand that plays poorly postflop.

74o is a very weak hand even from the button in a 3-handed game; folding preserves chips for better spots.

With the button folded, JTo is a reasonable heads-up small-blind open. Raising to 300 puts pressure on the big blind and avoids giving it a free flop.}

K2o is too weak to defend profitably against a 3x small blind open despite having position.

As the button in a three-handed game, 9♣7♥ is playable as an open raise. A 250-chip raise pressures the blinds while keeping the risk modest.

With pocket fives in the small blind facing a button open, calling 200 chips provides good implied odds to set-mine given 100bb effective stacks.

Queen-two offsuit is far too weak to defend for 150 more against a raise and a call out of position; folding loses the least.

Check out of position with an underpair on a highly connected board.

I flopped a jack-high straight on a connected board, so I’m betting for value while charging draws and two-pair hands.

I have an underpair with no redraws on a highly coordinated board that favors the preflop raiser's range, making this an easy fold.

J8 offsuit is at the bottom of the playable range on the button in 3-handed play; folding cleanly avoids marginal postflop situations.

42o is the weakest hand in hold'em and I'm out of position against the big blind for the rest of the hand; folding the half-bet loses little and avoids playing a dominated hand.
