Hold'em table

I have 6s Ac, a weak offsuit hand. The pot is 150 and I only need to call 100, but my equity is too low to justify a call with no initiative. Folding preserves my 10000 stack for better spots.

Heads-up with a suited ace, I'll just call the extra 50 to see a flop and keep the pot small out of position.

The button folded and the small blind limped, so I will raise to isolate and take initiative with position. K4s is strong enough to punish a limp, and I can fold to further aggression.

As2s is suited and has decent equity against a wide big blind raise in 3-handed play, so calling 200 more is reasonable to see a flop. Folding is too weak, and raising would overcommit with a marginal hand out of position.

Opponent checked after raising preflop, so I likely have the best hand with top pair. I bet about half pot for value and protection against overcards and draws.

I have a strong flush draw with Kh4h on an A-high board and am getting 3:1 pot odds to call. With position, calling realizes equity cheaply and keeps the pot manageable.

I have a strong combo draw (flush draw plus gutshot) and position. Betting for fold equity and to build the pot.

We have a suited connector in position and only need to call 100 to see a flop; this is a cheap and reasonable price.

KJo is playable but marginal from the small blind; calling the extra 50 gives good pot odds and avoids bloating the pot out of position against the limper and big blind.

I have a pocket pair of nines and the action is on me with no raise yet, so checking keeps the pot small and lets me see a flop cheaply.

I missed the flop on an Ace-high board and am first to act in a multiway pot; checking controls the pot and avoids bloating with king-high.

I have a pocket pair of nines with a weak flop (6h 8c Ah). Checking keeps the pot small and avoids building a big pot with a marginal hand. If checked to, I can decide later based on how the opponent acts.

I have a strong draw with flush and straight possibilities. Betting to build the pot and apply pressure.

I have only king-high on an ace-high flop and am facing a bet with a player still to act behind me; folding avoids chasing with poor equity and reverse implied odds.

I have a set of nines on a 6-8-A flop, which is a strong hand. Calling 150 to keep the pot manageable and avoid bloating the pot with a single opponent is the prudent play.

The pot is 600 with both players checked to me on the turn. My 99 is vulnerable to overcards and the board is coordinated, so I want to keep the pot small and avoid building a big bet with a marginal hand.

I have a pair of sevens with a flush draw and open-ended straight draw, so betting around 3/4 pot puts pressure on Ax hands and charges any draws.

I have a pair of nines with a backdoor flush draw. Calling keeps me in the hand without overcommitting on a scary board where the opponent showed significant strength with a turn raise.

The river is a paired board with a possible flush draw missed; checking preserves the option to control pot size and avoid building a big bluff catcher against seat_2's turn aggression.

On the button in a 3-handed game, raising with a suited hand applies pressure on the blinds and lets me take the initiative with position. T3s is weak but playable enough to open here rather than fold for only 1bb.

Calling 200 to see a flop with suited Broadway connectors in position is a standard play; I'll control pot size and realize equity.

9-3 offsuit is a very weak hand facing a raise and a call, and I have poor equity and reverse implied odds in a multiway pot. Folding saves the extra 150 chips.

I have a speculative JQ on a dry 6-2-9 flop with no obvious draws, and the opponent raised preflop then checked back, so I want to control the pot and see a cheap turn before committing more chips.

As the preflop raiser with position, I c-bet this dry flop to take down the pot. My hand has little showdown value but some backdoor flush and overcard potential if called.

My Js-Qs is weak on a 6-2-9 flop with a 300 raise; calling risks chips on a marginal hand against a likely strong range, so folding preserves stack.

8h Jd is a weak offsuit hand with no clear play against two opponents who have already posted blinds; folding preserves my stack for better spots.

Heads-up against the big blind with J9 offsuit, calling the small blind is cheap and keeps the pot small with a playable hand. No need to inflate the pot out of position.

With Q2o in the big blind and no call required, checking is best to see a flop cheaply rather than raising a weak offsuit hand.

I have no made hand and no draws on a coordinated board, so I check to see the turn for free.

My Q-high has little equity on a monotone king-high board and no diamond blockers. Checking in position keeps the pot small and lets me see a free turn rather than risk chips as a bluff into a range that often connects with this flop.

I have no made hand or draw on a four-flush board, so checking is the safest way to see a free river and avoid risking chips with a weak hand.

Opponent checked twice on a four-diamond board, likely lacks a diamond; a small bet of 100 into 200 can take the pot down, and we can fold to any raise.

I have no diamond, no pair, and no meaningful draw on a four-flush board, so calling the turn bet has very poor equity. Folding preserves chips for a better spot.

AJ suited is strong in a blind-vs-blind pot with the button folded, so I will raise for value and pressure the big blind rather than just complete.

I have Ts9d, a decent suited connector that can make straights and flushes. The pot odds are favorable at 400 in the pot with only 200 to call, and seat_3's raise to 300 doesn't look extremely strong. Calling keeps my stack intact while seeing a flop.

I have the nut flush draw plus two overcards on a paired board; betting 400 as a semi-bluff continuation to take down the pot or build it if I improve.

I have a weak Ten-Nine high on a paired 6-6-8 board, and seat_3's 400 raise on the flop represents significant strength. Folding avoids a difficult spot against a likely made hand or strong draw.

I have 6d Ac, a weak offsuit hand. Seat 3 folded, but seat 2 has already put in the big blind of 100. Calling 50 more to see a flop with this hand is not profitable. Folding saves chips.
