Hold'em table

93o is too weak to continue even with position; folding is the disciplined play.

Calling 50 to see a flop with decent pot odds heads-up is reasonable with a speculative hand like 54o. Folding is too weak given the cheap price, and raising with this hand out of position is unnecessary.

I'm in the big blind with 9hQc, and the action is on me with no raise. Checking keeps the pot small and lets me see a flop cheaply with this suited connector.

I have an open-ended straight draw with 4d5h on a 3h2cQd board, and checking gives me a free card to realize my equity while keeping the pot small out of position.

I have a backdoor flush draw and a backdoor straight draw with 9h Qc on this 3h 2c Qd board, but no made hand yet. Checking keeps the pot small and allows me to see a free turn card while preserving my stack.

I have only a straight draw with no made hand, and checking keeps the pot small while allowing a free river card. Betting here would risk chips without a strong value hand.

Checking keeps the pot small and avoids building a big bet with a mediocre turn hand. I can still see a cheap river and decide based on the final card.

Board is paired with two 3s and a Ten, giving me a pair of Queens with a 3 kicker. Checking is the safest play since I have no strong draws and the opponent has shown weakness throughout the hand.

K8o is playable from the button, and raising to 2.5 big blinds applies pressure while keeping position.

I hold a weak offsuit hand (Tc3d) and face a raise to 250. The pot odds do not justify calling with such a speculative hand, so folding preserves my stack.

Getting 3.3:1 pot odds with a suited hand and closing the action; call to see a flop.

I have bottom pair plus a flush draw on a coordinated board, so betting applies pressure and builds the pot with strong equity.

I have king-high with almost no draw on a wet board, and the opponent's flop lead suggests a made hand or strong draw. Calling is not profitable with so few clean outs, so I fold.

Calling the 100 big blind with QTs on the button is reasonable; I can see a flop cheaply and play position. Raising preflop with this suited connector is also viable, but calling keeps the pot manageable and preserves stack depth.

With a weak offsuit hand and no additional cost to see the flop, checking is the safest way to proceed while keeping the pot small.

We have no made hand and no strong draw on this flop, so checking to see a free turn is the best play.

I have a backdoor flush draw and gutshot with top pair on the board, but no made hand yet. Checking keeps the pot small and lets me see a free turn card while preserving my stack.

I have a pair of eights with a flush draw on the turn, so I bet to protect my hand and extract value from weaker pairs or draws.

I have a gutshot straight draw to a 9 and backdoor flush potential, so calling 150 into a 400 pot is a reasonable implied odds play. I'll see the river cheaply and decide then.

Board is J-K-4-8-2 rainbow with no flush or straight draws. My Q-T is a weak high card hand unlikely to beat a turn raise. Checking keeps the pot small and avoids putting chips in with a marginal hand.

J7s is a reasonable button hand in 3-handed play, and raising applies pressure on the blinds while taking initiative in position.

6h2h is a very weak hand out of position against a 3x raise. Calling 250 more with this hand and first position postflop is not profitable, so folding is the correct play.

8s9h is a weak hand to continue against a 300 preflop raise from the button, and calling 200 more into a 450 pot with deep stacks offers poor implied odds. Folding preserves my 9900 stack for better spots.

Calling with K3o on the button is cheap and lets me see a flop with position, while avoiding bloating the pot with a weak offsuit hand.

I have King-high with a backdoor flush draw, which is marginal for a raise. Calling keeps the pot small and avoids building a big pot with a weak hand.

With 87o in the big blind and no need to call, checking keeps the pot small and lets me see a cheap flop with a speculative hand. Raising into two limpers out of position would risk bloating the pot with a weak holding.

I have bottom pair on a dry flop with a backdoor flush draw. Checking keeps the pot small and allows me to control the hand on future streets without committing more chips with a weak hand.

I have an open-ended straight draw on a wet board; betting as a semibluff can win the pot immediately or build value for my strong draw.

I have bottom pair with a weak kicker and face a raise on a coordinated board; folding avoids risking more chips with a marginal hand.

I have a backdoor flush draw and a gutshot straight draw with Kd3c on a 9s 6s 3h board. Calling 200 to see the turn is reasonable given the pot odds and potential to improve.

I have a pair of threes with a backdoor flush draw, but the board is dry and opponent showed strength on the flop. Checking keeps the pot small and lets me see the river cheaply.

I have an open-ended straight draw but no showdown value, and the board has three spades. Checking behind realizes my equity for free and avoids a check-raise from a possible flush.

The board is paired with a 6, and my Kd is unlikely to be best; checking allows a cheap showdown without risking more chips on a marginal hand.

Our hand has only weak showdown value on this paired, three-spade board, and the opponent's river check suggests we should avoid turning a marginal hand into a bluff. Checking realizes our equity and prevents us from losing more chips to better pairs or trips.

On the button with Tc5d, I'm facing a 100bb raise equivalent from the BB and only a 50bb SB. This hand has poor equity and no playability postflop, so folding is the correct play to preserve my stack.

43o is too weak to play out of position against the big blind, even with 3:1 pot odds, as we will often flop poorly and be forced to fold to aggression.
