Hold'em table

K3o is too weak to open profitably from the button even in 3-handed play.

Button folded, so I am heads-up against the big blind with J2s. Completing for 50 more is cheap enough to see a flop with suited jack equity rather than folding or bloating the pot out of position.

AQo is strong; I raise to build a pot and isolate the limper rather than letting cheap cards in from the big blind.

J2s is too weak to continue out of position against a 4bb raise after the button folded. Folding avoids a dominated, low-equity spot.

63o is too weak to open from the button, so folding avoids putting chips in with a dominated, unconnected hand.

AJo suited is strong heads-up; raising from SB isolates the BB and builds the pot with position. A 3x open applies pressure without committing too much.

Holding an Ace in position against a small blind open, A4o has sufficient equity and playability to defend against a 3bb raise.

As preflop aggressor on a dry T-high board, a half-pot c-bet with ace-high plus the nut backdoor flush draw applies pressure and can win the pot outright.

I missed the flop completely with weak ace-high and no meaningful draws, so folding to the continuation bet is the clear play.

With A6s blind versus blind after the button folds, raising to 3bb builds a pot with a strong suited hand and seizes initiative.

JTo is connected and plays well heads-up against a small-blind open. Calling 200 into 400 is the right price rather than folding or bloating the pot with a 3-bet.

Out of position on a low board that connects reasonably well with the big blind's defending range, checking our Ace-high with backdoor equity is standard.

Jack-ten has only overcards and a backdoor flush on a dry board, so checking realizes equity cheaply after the preflop raiser checks.

Turn brought the nut flush draw alongside an open-ended straight draw to our overcard Ace. A 2/3 pot bet exerts pressure on hands that checked the flop while building a pot for our massive equity.

Jack-high with only a gutshot to the nine does not have the equity to call a 400 turn bet into a 1000 pot. Folding is the highest-EV line.

Opening standard 2.5x with AJo on the button in 3-handed play.

J5 offsuit is too weak to continue out of position against a button open, with the big blind still to act.

Offsuit 83 in the big blind facing a raise with only a caller removed; weak hand, no implied odds edge, fold.

2-5 offsuit is too weak to open from the button, even heads-up potential later; folding avoids putting chips in with almost no equity.

A8o is strong heads-up against only the big blind; raising builds the pot with a likely equity edge and adds fold equity rather than limping out of position.

Defending the big blind in position against a small blind open with A4o, getting good pot odds.

As the preflop raiser on a K-high flop, my range is favored over the BB's wide calling range, so a half-pot continuation bet takes down the pot often enough to be profitable with ace-high; I can give up if raised.

Flopping middle pair with top kicker on a dry K-4-3 rainbow board gives ample equity and good pot odds (3:1) to call a half-pot continuation bet.

I have second pair with a gutshot to the wheel, so checking behind controls the pot size and realizes my equity for free.

We hold an Ace for a straight on a 2-3-4-5-K board. Opponent has fallen back on the turn and river, so betting guarantees winning the entire pot.

94o is too weak to complete or raise blind vs blind out of position, making fold the standard play.
