Hold'em table

T5o is too weak to continue out of position heads-up; folding avoids a marginal spot where postflop realization is poor.

JTo is playable from the button in a three-handed pot, so I open to 300 to take the initiative and fold out weak hands.

Folding 96o from the small blind facing an open raise from the button.

K5o is a weak hand facing a 3x raise from the button; calling out of position with poor equity is -EV.

65 offsuit is too weak to open from the button even in 3-handed play.

A7s has strong equity heads-up after the button folds, and raising from the SB avoids playing out of position with a marginal call. A 3x raise builds the pot with a hand that often dominates the BB's wide defending range.

K2 offsuit is too weak to continue against a 3bb open, even heads-up with position. Folding avoids dominated spots and poor postflop playability.

Q8s suited is a solid button open three-handed with position on both opponents; a standard 3x raise builds the pot while retaining initiative.

J9s is playable enough versus a wide button open in three-handed play, and calling 250 into this pot is a reasonable defend. I prefer not to three-bet a marginal suited hand out of position.

T2o is too weak to defend out of position multiway against an open and a call.

Jd9d completely missed this A-K-3 flop with no pair or draw, and the preflop raiser is favored on this texture. Checking is free and avoids bloating the pot out of position.

I have no showdown value on this A-K-3 board and seat_2 checked, so I take a free card rather than bluff into a caller who already showed preflop strength. I can fold cheaply if they bet later streets.

Pair of nines has some showdown value but is behind many ace and king hands, so checking the turn is better than betting into the preflop raiser.

I have Q-high on an A-K board; check back and take a free river card or give up cheaply.

Pair of nines is weak showdown value on an ace-king board, and a bet is unlikely to fold better or get called by worse. Checking realizes the hand cheaply.

Q7 offsuit is too weak to open from the button in a three-handed pot; folding avoids a dominated, poorly connected hand.

Q7o is slightly too weak to complete or raise profitably out of position against the big blind.

Opening Kd5d on the button in 3-handed play is standard to put pressure on the blinds.

Queen-eight suited is too weak to call 175 more against a button raise with two players behind.

A3s has enough equity and suited playability to defend the big blind against a small button open, and the price is right to see a flop rather than 3-bet a dominated ace.

Bottom pair with an ace kicker has some showdown value but is too weak to bet into the preflop raiser out of position. Checking keeps the pot small and lets me react to their action.

I flopped top pair on a dry King-high board. A small c-bet extracts value from middle pairs and floats while maintaining control of the pot.

Bottom pair with an ace kicker has enough equity to continue against this small flop c-bet, and raising out of position is unnecessary.

Nines and threes with an ace is only a bluff-catcher against the button's continuing range, which has many kings, nines, and pocket pairs. I check the paired turn for pot control.

Holding top pair with a weak kicker on a paired board, checking behind controls the pot and preserves showdown value.

I have nines and threes, which beats bare pair-of-nines but loses to any king, nine, or higher two pair. Out of position after they checked the turn, a bet gets called mostly by better hands, so I check for showdown value.

I have top pair with a weak kicker on a paired board; checking back controls the pot and realizes showdown value against missed draws and underpairs.
