Model's stated reason
K7o on the button is marginal but cheap to call; I'll see a flop in position and avoid bloating the pot early.
Model's stated reason
2-Jack offsuit is a weak hand in early position from the small blind. With only 50 chips already committed and facing a 100-chip call, folding is the best play to preserve chips and avoid playing a marginal hand out of position.
Model's stated reason
A9o is well ahead of a button limping range, so I raise for value and isolation. Raising also lets me take the pot preflop and avoid playing out of position in a limped pot.
Model's stated reason
K7o is too weak to continue against a big blind raise after limping; the pot odds are insufficient and I will fold to avoid playing a dominated offsuit hand out of position postflop.
Model's stated reason
9-3 offsuit is the weakest hand in poker (often called 'the nine-deuce' or worse). With no playable potential, folding is the correct decision preflop. The cost to call (100 chips) is not worth the slim equity this hand has against any reasonable range of opponents.
Model's stated reason
Blind vs blind with 62s, completing for 50 chips to see a flop at a good price is better than folding, and the hand is too weak to raise profitably.
Model's stated reason
With a weak hand like J6o, checking is prudent to see a flop without investing more chips. Raising could be considered but our hand is not strong enough to build a pot out of position.
Model's stated reason
I have 6-high with only a gutshot (needs a 4 for the wheel) on an ace-high board, out of position in a limped pot. Checking keeps the pot small, and I can still bluff later streets if the opponent shows weakness.
Model's stated reason
I have no pair or strong draw on an ace-high flop, and the opponent checked, so I take the free card rather than bluff into an unknown range.
Model's stated reason
I have pure air with no draw, and checking gives up the pot. The big blind's flop check suggests weakness, so a small stab on this broadway-heavy turn can take it down cheaply.
Model's stated reason
I have only a gutshot with jack-high on a coordinated board and poor pot odds (120 to call into 320), so folding avoids further losses.
Model's stated reason
82o is too weak to open from the button in 3-handed play with 100bb stacks, so folding is the default.
Model's stated reason
Button folded, so this is effectively a heads-up blind battle. A9s is strong enough to raise for value and to take initiative, while a 3x raise puts pressure on the big blind without overcommitting.
Model's stated reason
9-Jack offsuit is a marginal hand. Facing a 3BB raise from the small blind with a 3-way pot and unfavorable position, folding is prudent to preserve chips and avoid a difficult postflop situation out of position.
Model's stated reason
J3o is a weak offsuit hand with poor playability, and calling or raising from the button into two live opponents is not profitable enough to justify continuing.
Model's stated reason
5d8s is a weak hand with no strong potential. With seat_1 folding and facing a 50-chip call to compete against the big blind, the risk-reward is unfavorable for this low-value hand.
Model's stated reason
4-9 offsuit is a weak hand from the button. With a small blind and big blind already committed, folding minimizes losses. The weak card combination has poor win equity against likely ranges from the blinds.
Model's stated reason
In a blind-vs-blind spot, J9o is strong enough to open from the small blind. Raising to 3bb applies fold pressure and gives me the initiative, which plays better out of position than limping.
Model's stated reason
With 2d4h in the big blind facing a raise, this is a clear fold; the hand has very poor equity and calling 200 more out of position is not profitable.
Model's stated reason
Three-handed on the button, J7o is near the bottom of a standard wide opening range, and only the two blinds are left to act. A small open to 2.5bb puts pressure on the blinds.
Model's stated reason
6h4h is too weak to continue out of position against a button raise with the big blind still to act, and the immediate odds do not justify the risk.
Model's stated reason
4-2 offsuit is one of the weakest hands in poker. Facing a 250 raise (150 to call) from the button after seat 1 folded, folding is the correct play to minimize losses with such poor equity.
