Hold'em table

AT offsuit is a strong hand on the button; raise to build pot and take initiative against blinds.

5-high offsuit is far too weak to defend from the small blind against an opening raise with the big blind still to act.

K6o is a weak hand in the big blind facing a raise to 250 from the button. With 150 chips to call into a 400 pot and no initiative, this is an unprofitable spot to defend without strong cards. Folding preserves chips for better opportunities.

8d7d is a playable suited connector on the button in a three-handed unopened pot. Raising applies pressure and retains initiative.

2-3o is the worst starting hand in poker with poor playability. Against a raise from seat_2, folding preserves chips and avoids playing a dominated hand out of position postflop.

AQ offsuit is strong heads-up against a single button raise; 3-betting builds the pot and isolates against the button while I have position information.

Calling the small button-versus-big-blind 3-bet with a suited connected hand gives favorable implied odds and position postflop.

I hold top pair aces with a strong kicker on a two-club board; betting for value and to deny flush/straight draws cheap equity.

We have no made hand or meaningful immediate draw on this ace-king-high board, facing a pot-sized continuation bet in a 3-bet pot.

K2 offsuit is a very weak hand, especially in early position against a small blind and big blind who have already invested. Folding is the standard play to preserve chips with this marginal holding.

With the button folded, it's heads-up against the BB; raising with a pocket pair for value and isolation makes sense rather than just limping in.

Q2 offsuit is a marginal but playable big-blind defense against a small heads-up small-blind raise, given the pot odds.

Pocket fours completely missed this coordinated flop with two spades and two overcards; checking to control pot size and see if I can get to showdown cheaply.

With only queen-high and no immediate made draw, checking back preserves equity and avoids inflating the pot.

I have only a low pocket pair with no draw on a paired, flush-possible board; checking keeps the pot small and lets me see a free river.

Villain has checked twice on a paired board, leaving many unpaired overcards and weak holdings vulnerable. A moderate turn stab can win the pot while risking relatively little.

I have no pair, no draw, and the board's paired tens beat my pocket fours; folding to the turn bet is clearly correct.

3d5d offsuit is weak on the button facing a raise-less pot; folding preserves chips for better spots.

With AK suited heads-up against the big blind after the button folds, I raise for value and initiative.

A5o is marginally playable, but facing a 3x raise from the small blind after folding button, this is a clear fold. My hand has poor equity against a range that includes premiums, and the risk-reward doesn't justify committing more chips here.

K4 offsuit is a weak button holding in a multiway blind setup, and folding avoids playing a dominated hand.

AH8H is a decent hand with flush potential and high card; raising to 300 applies reasonable pressure and allows me to win the pot immediately or build it with a strong hand while seat_2 has folded.

KQ offsuit is strong heads-up; 3-betting the SB open applies pressure and builds a pot with a hand that can flop well.

Ace-eight suited is marginal in a 3-handed game, but facing a significant reraise from a strong position player after already putting in 300 chips, folding is prudent. The pot odds don't justify calling 600 more with this hand against a likely stronger range.

3-9 offsuit is a weak hand with poor win probability in a 3-player game. Folding from the button minimizes losses rather than calling the big blind with a marginal holding.

KJ suited is a strong heads-up hand versus only the big blind; raising to isolate and build the pot with a strong holding.

K6 offsuit is strong enough to defend the big blind heads-up against a small-blind 3x open with no rake.

As preflop raiser I have two overcards plus a backdoor flush draw on a low, disconnected board, so a continuation bet is a good semi-bluff.

We have middle pair plus the king-high diamond draw, with favorable pot odds against the small continuation bet. Calling keeps weaker hands and bluffs in while retaining strong turn equity.

I have king-high with no pair or strong draw on a paired board, and my opponent has called two barrels already, so I'll check to control pot size rather than bluff into a likely made hand.

Betting our pair of sixes after the turn check extracts value from draws and weaker pairs while denying equity to overcards.

I have king-high with no pair and no draw on a paired, dry board; facing a raise, folding is correct.
