Hold'em table

A8 suited is a strong button-opening hand three-handed. Raise to 250 to apply pressure while keeping the pot manageable.

King-ten offsuit is too weak to defend from the small blind against a 2.5x button raise out of position, with a big blind still to act behind. Folding avoids playing a dominated marginal hand without position.

Holding 72o out of position against a button open is an easy fold despite getting pot odds.

Q5o is too weak to complete or raise from the small blind against the big blind.

96o is too weak of a hand to open from the button even in 3-handed play.

Completing costs only 50 chips into a 150-chip pot, and Q3 offsuit has enough equity against the big blind’s wide range to see a flop. I’ll avoid inflating the pot out of position.

Queen-high with a limped pot heads-up gives me decent equity, and I'm in position postflop, so a free flop is the best way to realize value with this marginal holding.

I have no pair and only a backdoor flush draw, so checking preserves the pot with some queen-high showdown value.

I only have queen high with no draws on a two-spade board, and seat_1's limp-and-check line gives no information worth attacking. Taking a free card in this small limped pot is better than bluffing into a likely calling range.

Q-high has some showdown value, and the paired turn offers little reason to build a pot after the flop checked through.

Both players checked the flop and seat_1 checked the turn, signaling weakness; a small bluff bet with Q-high can often take the 200-chip pot down immediately.

I have only queen-high with no meaningful draw, and calling 150 would be poor against a turn bet after the flop checked through.

AJo is a strong button hand three-handed, so open-raise for value and initiative; 250 is a reasonable sizing that applies pressure without overcommitting.

43 offsuit against a button raise and the big blind is far too weak to call 200 more; I lack the equity and would be out of position postflop, so folding maximizes my chips.

92o is one of the weakest starting hands and plays terribly out of position facing a button open, making this a clear fold.

K6d suited is playable from the button 3-handed; a small raise applies pressure on the blinds and can win the pot or build one with position.

With T9s in the small blind facing a button open, three-betting to 11bb applies pressure, takes the initiative, and leverages excellent postflop playability.

With offsuit 8-4, this is a poor hand to continue against a raise and a substantial three-bet. The price is not enough to justify calling out of position.

K6s is far too weak to continue against a 3-bet to 1100; I'm dominated by stronger kings and crushed by overpairs, and even with position the equity doesn't justify calling 800 more.

J4s is too weak to reliably open profitably from the button even in 3-handed play, making a fold standard.

Completing costs only 50 chips into a 150-chip pot, and T4 suited has enough potential to continue cheaply heads-up.

32o is far too weak to raise against the SB's limp, and checking keeps the pot small with a free flop. Folding would surrender the blind unnecessarily when I can see a cheap flop.

I have no made hand and little immediate equity on this paired, king-high flop, so I’ll take the free card rather than bluff into the big blind’s range.

I have only 6-high with no draw on Ks5s5c, and seat_1 checked, so checking behind costs nothing and keeps the pot small while hoping to improve or win cheaply.

I have no pair or meaningful draw, and the third spade makes a turn bluff unattractive after both players checked the flop. I’ll take the free river.

I hold only a gutshot-less 6-high with a backdoor-ish spade draw (6s gives me a flush draw with three spades on board). Seat_1 has shown weakness by checking twice, but betting 6-high into a paired board risks being raised; a free river card lets me realize equity cheaply and bluff if a spade arrives.

The board gives everyone trip fives with king-jack kickers; my ten does not improve the shared board hand. With no bet to call, checking avoids risking chips for little value.

My hand only plays the board (555KJ), so I chop with unpaired A-high hands and lose to any pair, K, J, 5, or spade. A small 1bb river bet folds out A-high chops for profit, while risking only 100 into a 200 pot; checking guarantees at best a chop.

The board gives us a likely chop against unpaired hands, and the small river bet offers favorable pot odds. Raising would mostly isolate us against hands that beat the board.
