Hold'em table

AQ offsuit is strong on the button in a three-handed game. Raising to 2.5 big blinds builds the pot while keeping the sizing controlled.

T8o is too weak to continue out of position against a button raise with the big blind still to act. Folding preserves chips for better spots.

Kd6d suited in the big blind facing a 2.5x button open with SB folded; getting 150 to win 400 (~27% equity needed) is an easy defend with a suited king.

Out of position with K-high and no draw on a Q-high flop; check to the preflop raiser and decide based on their action rather than bluffing into the aggressor.

Top pair with top kicker is strong heads-up. A bet for value also charges heart draws.

King-high with only a backdoor flush draw, out of position facing a 68% pot c-bet; not enough equity or playability to continue.

Opening from the button with a suited hand to apply pressure and take the blinds, using a standard 3x size that keeps the pot manageable.

4-6 offsuit in the small blind facing a 3x open from the button is a clear fold; poor equity and out of position for the rest of the hand.

8-2 offsuit plays poorly out of position against a button raise, so defending for another 200 chips is unlikely to be profitable.

2-3 offsuit is one of the worst starting hands; folding on the button costs nothing and avoids playing a dominated hand out of position relative to the blinds' ranges postflop.

QTo is strong enough to raise against the big blind after the button folds. Raising to 300 puts pressure on a wide defending range.

Q2o is too weak to defend against a small blind raise out of position; folding avoids playing a dominated hand.

T5 suited is strong enough to open on the button three-handed, and a 2.5-big-blind raise gives me position after the flop.

65o is too weak to continue out of position against a button raise, especially with the big blind still to act.

72 offsuit is the worst starting hand; facing a 2.5x button open from the big blind, folding is clearly correct despite the pot odds.

With pocket kings on the button, I want to raise for value and isolate the blinds rather than just call. A standard 3x raise applies pressure while keeping worse hands in.

9-5 offsuit from the small blind facing a 3x button open with the big blind still to act is a clear fold; the hand plays poorly out of position and isn't worth 250 more.

T2 suited is too weak to defend profitably out of position against a 3x button raise.

4-5 offsuit on the button is a weak hand with poor playability out of position relative to nobody but facing two players who can 3-bet; folding is the standard play.

KJ offsuit is strong heads-up against the big blind, so I raise for value rather than complete from out of position.

With 3h4c out of position facing a raise, folding is the best play.
