Hold'em table

Pocket aces on the button; standard open raise to 2.5bb to build the pot while keeping blinds in with worse hands.

Holding 63 offsuit in the small blind against a button open is an easy standard fold.

JTo is a solid big-blind defend against a button open, with connected cards and sufficient equity for the 150-chip call into a 400-chip pot. Calling preserves its playability without inflating the pot out of position.

With two overcards and a gutshot but no club, checking preserves equity without inflating the pot out of position. I can reassess based on the preflop raiser's bet size.

Pocket aces on a wet 6-9-7 two-club board; bet ~2/3 pot for value and protection against straight and flush draws after BB checks.

The gutshot and two overcards offer limited clean outs on this coordinated, two-club board. Facing a sizable bet out of position with no backdoor flush draw, I cannot realize enough equity to justify calling.

73o is far too weak to open or play profitably from the button even in 3-handed play.

Completing costs only 50 into a 150-chip pot, making 84 suited worth playing blind versus blind. Calling keeps the pot small with a marginal hand out of position.

Button folded and SB limped; QJo is well ahead of a limping range heads-up, so I raise for value and to take the initiative in position-disadvantaged spot with a strong hand.

84 suited is too weak to continue profitably out of position against this raise. Its limited connectivity and poor equity realization do not justify calling 250 chips.

T3 offsuit is too weak to open profitably from the button without evidence that the blinds overfold. Folding avoids investing in a hand with poor connectivity and frequent domination.

Button folded, so it's SB vs BB heads-up; J8o is a reasonable raise from the small blind to take the blinds or play in position-less but with initiative against a single opponent.

Q6o is too weak to defend against a 3bb raise from the small blind, even with position.

AQo on the button in a 3-handed game is a strong hand; standard open to 2.5bb to build the pot in position.

76 offsuit is too weak to defend out of position from the small blind against a button open.

Q7 suited is a profitable big-blind defend against a typical button opening range, needing only 27.3% equity on the call. Calling preserves its suited playability without inflating the pot out of position.

Middle pair with a queen kicker and a backdoor heart draw has useful showdown value. Checking keeps the pot manageable out of position and allows the preflop raiser to bet weaker hands.

Standard small c-bet with AQ on a dry low board after BB checks; I have range advantage and two overcards with backdoor equity, and a small bet folds out many unpaired hands cheaply.

Middle pair with a queen kicker and a backdoor heart draw is strong enough to call this roughly half-pot continuation bet against a wide button range. Calling keeps bluffs in while avoiding an unnecessary raise with a medium-strength hand.

The ace favors the preflop raiser's range, and our pair of sevens has limited showdown value. Checking keeps the pot controlled and avoids a lead that is unlikely to get called by worse.

Turned top pair with a queen kicker on an ace-high dry board; betting ~65% pot for value against BB's calling range of eights, sevens, draws, and weaker aces while keeping pot manageable.

Third pair with no meaningful draw is a weak bluff-catcher against this second barrel, especially with the ace favoring the preflop raiser. Calling 750 out of position risks further river pressure without enough reliable equity.

6-3 offsuit is far too weak to open, even from the button in a 3-handed game. Folding is standard.

With the button folded, T9 offsuit is a reasonable blind-versus-blind opening hand. Raising to 3bb pressures the big blind while retaining useful postflop connectivity when called.

T3s in the big blind facing a 3x small-blind open, in position postflop with 3:1 pot odds; suited hand has enough equity and playability to defend.

This dry ace-king-high flop favors my preflop raising range, making a one-third-pot continuation bet an efficient bluff against weak holdings. T9 also has backdoor straight potential for selected turn barrels.

T3 suited with no pair, no flush draw (one heart on board), and no straight draw on an A-K-8 board facing a continuation bet; folding is clearly correct.

On the button, 5♣3♣ is a reasonable small open with suited straight potential and position after the flop. Raising can win the blinds immediately while keeping the investment modest.

9-4 offsuit in the small blind facing a button raise is a clear fold; it plays poorly out of position and has little equity.

K6o is too weak and dominates poorly out of position against a button raise, making it an easy fold.
