Hold'em table

K3s is a standard button open in three-handed play; a 2.5bb raise takes the initiative with a suited king rather than limping or folding.

A♣T♠ is strong against a button open in a three-handed game, so I’ll 3-bet for value and initiative despite being out of position.

Holding T3o in the big blind facing an open and a 3-bet is an easy fold.

K3 suited is too weak to call or four-bet against a small-blind three-bet, so folding avoids a dominated spot.

With a small pair on the button in a three-handed game, opening for 2.5 big blinds applies pressure while keeping weaker hands in the range.

Q9o is too weak to call or 3-bet from the small blind out of position against a button raise with the big blind still to act.

T5s is too weak and dominated to continue out of position against a button raise; calling realizes poorly and raising bloating the pot is worse.

J2o is far too weak to open or play, even from the button in 3-handed play.

Button folded, so KTo is strong enough heads-up versus the big blind to raise for value and fold equity rather than just complete.

I have a playable connected hand in the big blind and am getting a reasonable price against the small blind's raise. I'll call and evaluate the flop.

Dry A-high flop favors my preflop raising range, and king-high has little showdown value, so a small continuation bet is the higher-EV line.

I have no pair and only a remote runner-runner straight possibility, so calling the flop bet is not worthwhile.

Button open with 78o in a three-handed pot; a small raise takes the initiative and plays well in position if called.

9♣3♣ is too weak to defend from the small blind against a 3x button raise, especially with the big blind still to act.

Folding J8o from the big blind against a 3x open from the button out of position.

8♦3♣ is a very weak offsuit hand and not worth entering from the button against the big blind.

KQo is well ahead of an average holding; raising to 3bb from the small blind to take initiative and build the pot blind vs blind.

72 offsuit is too weak to continue against a raise, even heads-up from the small blind. Folding saves the remaining stack for better spots.

Opening from the button with 98s, a premier suited connector that plays very well in position.

A2o is too weak to continue out of position against a button open; calling realizes equity poorly and a light 3-bet is not worth the risk.

Calling is reasonable at these pot odds with a suited hand that can make strong draws, especially heads-up against a button raise.

I have no pair and only backdoor draw potential on this flop, so checking keeps the pot small and preserves the option to continue if I improve.

We have middle pair and a gutshot straight draw on a wet board; checking back controls the pot and comfortably realizes our equity in position.

With only 6-high and no meaningful draw, bluffing into the preflop raiser’s range is unlikely to be profitable. I’ll take the free river card.

Turned trips with our 9 and gutshot; betting for value against second-best pairs and calling draws after the big blind checks twice.

I have no pair or meaningful draw, and calling 350 into a 900-chip pot would be too costly with only a weak hand.
