Hold'em table

JTo is a reasonable 3-handed button hand, and raising applies pressure on the blinds while taking initiative with position.

84s is too weak to continue out of position against a 3x button raise, so I fold and preserve chips.

I have Ts6d, a weak hand that is unlikely to improve enough to justify calling a 3x raise from the button. Folding preserves my stack against a strong range.

A9o is strong enough to raise from the button in a 3-handed game, and I can take the pot down preflop or continue with initiative.

With 2h9h and a 300 raise, the pot odds don't justify continuing preflop; I'll fold to preserve chips.

Button's 3x open is wide in a 3-handed game, and I only need about 31% equity to call with K8o closing the action preflop.

I have K-high with no pair on an A-Q-4 flop and the preflop raiser is still active. Checking keeps the pot small and lets me fold to further aggression.

I have top pair with a decent kicker on a fairly dry board, so I should bet for value and protection. A bet of about half the pot puts pressure on weaker Ax and Qx hands while keeping the pot manageable.

With king-high on an ace-queen flop and no real draw, I have little equity against the button's preflop raise and flop continuation bet. Folding avoids putting more chips in with air.

I have a weak offsuit hand (T4o) and the pot odds don't justify calling 100 to see a flop with such disconnected cards. Folding preserves my stack for better opportunities.

QTs is a strong suited broadway hand; with the button folded, raising applies pressure on the big blind and builds the pot with good equity.

J5o is too weak to call a 3x raise out of position, and I have no equity advantage. Folding preserves chips.

K5o on the button is a reasonable 3-handed open; raising applies pressure on the blinds and uses position, while a small size limits risk if called.

JJ is strong enough to three-bet for value against a button open, and raising helps isolate while charging the caller. I'll make it 700 to build the pot and reduce the field.

I hold a weak suited connector (Jh-Tc) and face a significant 3-bet from the small blind. Given the high cost to call and my position disadvantage, folding is the most prudent decision.

K5o is too weak to continue against a small-blind three-bet; it is often dominated and has poor postflop playability. Folding avoids putting in more chips with a marginal hand.

K9o is a playable hand from the button facing a single raise, and calling keeps the pot small while seeing a flop in position.

7h3h is too weak to continue against two players who have already called, especially out of position as the small blind. Folding preserves chips for better spots.

With 8h5h in the big blind and only one limper, I prefer checking to see a cheap flop rather than bloating the pot out of position with a speculative hand.

I have a weak gutshot with no pair on a coordinated board and no need to bloat the pot out of position. Checking keeps the pot small and lets me see a free turn.

I have bottom pair with a gutshot straight draw and a king overcard. Betting here builds the pot and puts pressure on the opponent, who checked. A half-pot bet is a good size to extract value from weaker hands and protect my equity.

I have an open-ended straight draw and the bet is small relative to the pot; I'll call to see the turn and evaluate.

I have a combo draw (open-ended straight + flush draw) on the turn; betting semi-bluffs and can fold out better hands while I retain strong equity if called.

I have a speculative suited connector in position and want to see a flop cheaply. Calling 100 chips keeps my stack intact while realizing equity against their range.

A9s is strong enough to raise over a button limp in 3-handed play; taking initiative can fold out the BB and charge weaker limping hands.

My hand is too weak to continue against a raise, and calling 300 more with 2-5 suited is not profitable. I'll preserve my stack for a better spot.

Calling 300 with ThJd on the BTN is reasonable given the pot odds and position, keeping the hand live without overcommitting preflop.

As9s gives me the nut flush draw plus an overcard on a paired board. Betting for fold equity and to build the pot.

My T-J high has no pair or draw on this 6-4-6 board, and calling 600 to see a turn is too expensive given the strong range that raised twice. Folding preserves my remaining stack for better spots.
