Hold'em table

92s is far too weak to open, even on the button in 3-handed play.

Small blind vs big blind with T3o. Pot odds are 3:1, and my hand has enough equity against a random hand to justify completing. I'll proceed cautiously postflop.

A6 offsuit is strong enough to raise against a small-blind limp, and I’ll have position after the flop.

Th3d is too weak to call a 300-chip raise out of position; folding preserves chips.

As the button with A7o, I'll raise to apply pressure and take control against the blinds.

With 7-6 offsuit in the small blind, calling a 3x button raise out of position with the big blind still to act is unlikely to be profitable.

Holding 63 offsuit in the big blind against a 3bb button open is an easy standard fold.

Ace-king offsuit is a premium hand on the button, so I raise for value and to build the pot in position.

Holding 62o in the small blind facing a 3bb open is an easy fold out of position.

Closing the action for 200 into 450 with 65s; the button's range is wide in a 3-handed game and the hand has enough implied odds to defend.

With 6-high and no pair on an A-A-7 board, I have little equity; checking and planning to fold to a bet avoids risking chips as a bluff into the preflop raiser.

Trip aces with a king kicker are strong here. A small bet can get value from weaker pairs and spade draws while keeping those hands in the pot.

I have only 6-high with no pair or real draw on an A-A-7 board that strongly favors the preflop raiser, so calling or raising would be spewy. Folding is the clear play.

Opening AKo from the button to 2.5x for standard value and initiative.

A4s is a good 3-bet candidate from the small blind against a button open, blocking strong aces and having nut-flush potential. Raising to 800 applies pressure and isolates the big blind.

T3 offsuit is far too weak to defend against a sizable three-bet, especially with the original raiser still to act.

Holding premium AKo on the button, 4-betting for value against the small blind's 3-bet.

A4s is dominated by the button's 4-betting range and plays poorly out of position. Calling 1300 more would be marginal at best, so folding is the safer chip-preserving choice.

A3o is a marginal hand, but on the button in 3-handed play, calling 100 to see a flop with position is profitable. Raising risks too much with a weak ace.

Completing for 50 chips is inexpensive in a limped pot. I'll see a flop with 95 offsuit rather than build the pot out of position.

With A8o in the big blind facing two limpers, checking gives a free look at the flop with decent high-card value out of position.

My hand has little immediate value on this flop, and checking lets me see what the other players do without investing more chips.

I have Ace-high with no draw on a high, coordinated flop multiway out of position, making an easy check.

I have position, an overcard, and a backdoor nut flush draw. Both opponents checked, so a bet can take down the pot or set up a turn barrel.

I have no pair or immediate draw on a board that can connect with the bettor's range. Calling out of position with only backdoor possibilities isn't worth 200 chips.

I hold ace-high with no draw on a high, coordinated board and have no reason to continue facing a bet out of position.

Q5 offsuit is a marginal but playable button open in three-handed hold’em. Raising gives me a chance to win the blinds while retaining position if called.

J9 offsuit is too weak to call or 3-bet from the small blind against a button open out of position.

Closing the action with A3o getting 2.67:1 pot odds; call is profitable against the button's wide opening range despite being out of position.

Ace-high with no real draw on a coordinated flop; checking keeps the pot small and avoids getting raised off a weak hand.

This board connects well with the big blind’s calling range. Checking back lets me realize the equity from my gutshot and overcard without building a pot with a weak hand.

I have only ace-high on a coordinated board and no made hand; checking controls the pot and takes a free river against the preflop raiser who checked the flop.

The turn gives me a draw to a queen-high straight, but this connected board also hits many hands the big blind could have. I’ll take the free river card rather than bluff into that range.

I have ace-high with no pair on a coordinated board; both opponents checked flop and turn, so checking the river keeps the pot small and avoids a costly bluff-catch situation.

Bottom pair has some showdown value, but this connected board makes a value bet unlikely to be called by worse hands. I’ll check and take the showdown.
