Hold'em table

7-5 offsuit is a weak button hand with poor playability, so I’ll fold rather than enter the pot against two unknown blinds.

Holding premium AK suited in the small blind after the button folded, raising to 3bb to build value and isolate against the big blind.

7-3 offsuit is the worst starting hand. Calling 200 more to win a 400 pot out of position against a small blind raiser isn't worth it, so I fold.

T8s is a solid hand to open on the button 3-handed to apply pressure and play in position.

A3o out of position in the small blind facing a button open with the big blind still to act is a marginal, dominated hand. Folding is the simplest choice in a 3-handed pot.

6-4 offsuit plays poorly out of position against a button raise, and defending it is unlikely to be profitable.

J7 offsuit is a weak hand, and I'd be out of position against two opponents postflop after calling from the button. Folding is the simplest choice.

With the button folded, 8-7 offsuit is playable heads-up. A small raise can win the blinds or build a pot without committing too much.

Holding 53o in the big blind against an SB raise is far too weak to defend profitably.

On the button in a three-handed game, 9-7 offsuit is playable as a small open-raise with position.

7c 2h is the weakest starting hand in Texas Hold'em; folding to an open raise from the small blind is standard.

In the big blind with T7 offsuit against a button min-raise, the pot odds are 550 to 150, so I need only about 27% equity. The hand is not strong enough to 3-bet, but a call is reasonable in a 3-handed game.

I hold Td 7s on an 8s 6s 8h flop, which is only ten-high with a gutshot to a straight and no flush draw. Seat_1 raised preflop and acts after me with position, so checking keeps the pot small and lets me see a turn cheaply.

I have an open-ended straight draw and position. A 300-chip bet can win the pot now while building it when I improve.

I have a pair of eights on board with a T-7 kicker, plus a backdoor straight draw. The pot is 850 and I need to call 300, so I get about 2.8:1. Button's c-bet range is wide, so calling is reasonable and raising isn't needed.

Board 8s 6s 8h 8d gives me trips-eights-adjacent only via the board; my Td7s plays as a pair-less board with T kicker at best, so I hold essentially a weak showdown hand. Checking keeps the pot small and lets me realize showdown value against a possibly wide continuing range.

I’m likely behind with nine-high, but a free river card can improve my hand. Checking preserves the option to reassess on the river.

I have trip eights with a ten kicker, which is strong on this paired board. Seat_1 checked back the turn, so I'll bet about 57% of the pot for value against weaker eights, pairs and draws.

I have a straight and am getting good odds to call. Raising is unlikely to get much value from weaker hands, while full houses and quads can call or reraise.

KQ suited is a premium broadway holding on the button in 3-handed play; raising 2.5x for value and initiative.

Pocket threes in the small blind facing a button min-ish open of 2.5bb has good set-mining odds. The big blind still has to act behind, so a 3-bet bluff-catch isn't ideal and calling is preferred over folding or raising.

Calling 150 into a 600-chip pot gives Q6o a reasonable price to see the flop, though I’ll play cautiously out of position.

Pocket threes on a 6-9-T two-diamond board is a weak showdown hand facing two opponents, and I act first. Checking keeps the pot small and lets me see what the others do.

Bottom pair with no diamond is too weak to value-bet into two opponents on this monotone flop. I’ll check and reassess if the button bets.

Checking back on a monotone board three-way with no diamond in hand to realize our equity in position.

Pocket threes are a weak showdown hand on a four-diamond board (6d 9d Td 2d) with two opponents who both checked the flop. Betting would mostly get called by better hands or folded out by worse ones, so I check and keep the pot small.

I have a weak pair and no diamond on a four-diamond board. Checking avoids building a pot against likely flushes.

With no diamond on a four-flush board 3-way, bluffing without any diamond blocker is risky as any diamond will call; taking a free card is better.

Board is 6d 9d Td 2d 8c with no pair. My pocket 3s only plays as a bluff-catcher, and everyone checked twice, so the field looks weak. A small bet of 300 into 750 could get called by worse (a weak pair or a missed draw) but should fold out some hands that beat me. Any diamond in another hand makes a flush, so I keep the bet small.

Bottom pair without a diamond is unlikely to beat a river bet on this four-diamond board, especially with another player still to act.

I have King-high with no diamond on a four-diamond board, offering zero showdown value, and bluff-raising into a river lead is too speculative.

K8s on the button in a 3-handed game is a decent hand. A small raise takes advantage of position against two players who may be weak, and it steals the blinds fairly often.

7-5 offsuit is too weak to defend from the small blind against a button raise, especially with the big blind still to act.

J6o is too weak to defend out of position against a 2.5x open.
