Hold'em table

3-2 offsuit is the worst hand in hold'em and I'm out of position postflop against two players; folding the button trash costs nothing and preserves chips for better spots.

AK suited is a premium hand; button folded, so raise from SB to build pot and isolate BB.

36 offsuit is too weak to continue against a preflop raise, even heads-up after the button folded. Folding avoids putting more chips in with a dominated, low-equity hand.

J2 offsuit is a weak hand from the button facing a raise scenario; folding preserves chips.

Button folded, so I only face the big blind and am getting 3:1 to complete. 97o is weak but has enough equity to call rather than fold or inflate the pot out of position.

Queen-high in the big blind against a single limper; checking keeps the pot small with a weak kicker and avoids bloating a marginal spot out of position.

I have no pair and no draw on a paired ace flop, so there is no value in betting. Checking keeps the pot small and realizes whatever equity I have for free.

I only hold the board's pair of aces with a queen kicker, so I have no showdown value against an ace and no draws. Checking keeps the pot small and avoids building it while likely behind.

I have 9-7 offsuit with no pair or draw on a paired ace-king board, so there is no value in betting. Checking is free and avoids bloating a pot I am unlikely to win.

I only hold queen-high playing the board's pair of aces, so checking behind is safest; I can fold cheaply if seat_3 bets, since any ace, king, or pocket pair beats me.

I have aces and nines on a paired ace-king board, but a bet is only called by better hands like any ace or king. Checking realizes the pot without paying off a stronger holding.

My hand is only the board's pair of aces with a queen kicker; betting risks losing to Ax or Kx and the pot is tiny, so checking is safest and free.

A7o is ahead of a typical button open range and has good playability heads-up or three-way, so a small 2.5bb raise takes the initiative rather than flatting the big blind.

Queen-five offsuit is far too weak to defend from the small blind against a 2.5x button raise; playing out of position with a dominated hand risks more than the pot odds justify.

8-5 offsuit is weak; facing a raise with poor odds and no position, folding is correct.

Weak offsuit low cards (3-6) with no connectivity; not worth continuing even at a discount.

9-4 offsuit is a weak hand from the button facing action; folding is standard here since I'm not the button raising into a limped pot with strong equity, and this hand doesn't warrant a raise or call.

Button folded, so I only need 50 more into a 150 pot with Q8o, which has enough equity to continue. Completing keeps the pot small out of position rather than bloating it with a weak offsuit hand.

I hold a weak offsuit 5-8 in the big blind against a single limper; checking keeps the pot small and lets me see a free flop rather than building a pot with a marginal hand.

Middle pair with a queen kicker is too weak to bet out of position into a king-high flop, so I check and keep the pot small.

I hold a pair of eights on a K-high board heads-up; a small bet charges draws and worse hands while keeping the pot manageable since any king beats me.

I have middle pair with a queen kicker and the flop bet is only half pot, so the price is good enough to continue rather than fold or inflate the pot out of position.

I have two pair (queens and eights) on the turn and the pot is unopened, so a value bet of about three-quarters pot extracts chips from kings, draws, and worse pairs.

Q6 offsuit is too weak to open even from the button in three-handed play, and limping is worse. Folding preserves the stack for better hands.
