Hold'em table

Pocket sixes on the button in a 3-handed game is a clear open; raising to 2.5bb builds the pot with a hand well ahead of the blinds' ranges while keeping position.

T8 suited has decent playability in a 3-way pot; calling 200 more to see a flop is cheap relative to stack.

98o is connected and gets good pot odds in the big blind, needing only about 20% equity against a button raise and small blind call.

Ten-high with a backdoor draw on a dry board; checking is fine with no value or fold equity worth betting for.

Top pair with an 8 kicker plus a heart flush draw on a wet board is strong; betting for value and protection against overcards and draws.

66 is an underpair to the 9 but beats flush draws, 5x/3x gutshots and bluffs in a BB donk range; getting 2.5:1 with position, calling is better than folding or bloating the pot with a raise.

Ten-high with no draw on a coordinated board facing a flop bet and a caller; folding is clearly best.

Top pair on a heart-draw board; betting about half pot for value and protection denies a free river to flush and overcard draws while keeping weaker pairs in.

66 is a bluff-catcher on 2-9-4-7 with a heart draw present; villain's two donk bets at half-pot are consistent with draws and medium hands, and we need only ~25% equity to call. We'll reassess on the river.

I have only a pair of 9s that likely loses at showdown after the river completes flush and straight draws, but my flop and turn betting line credibly represents a flush and I hold the 8h blocker, so a river bluff offers better equity than checking.

Opponent donk-bet three streets with escalating sizing and the river completes the flush; my pair of sixes is below both the 9 and J and only beats missed straight draws, so calling 2600 at ~30% pot odds is unprofitable.

Heads-up in the small blind with A7o, an ace-high hand well ahead of the big blind's range, raising to 3x builds value and denies a free flop.

T5 offsuit is a weak hand facing a 3x raise from the small blind out of position-neutral spot; calling 200 into 600 with poor playability isn't profitable, so fold.

Pocket jacks on the button is a premium hand in 3-handed play, so I raise for value and to take initiative.

T4 suited from the small blind facing a 3x button open with the big blind still to act is a clear fold; weak hand, out of position.

Q9o is a weak hand facing a 3bb raise out of position heads-up; folding avoids a marginal spot with only 200 to call but poor equity and position.

AQs on the button in a 3-handed game is a premium hand; standard open to 2.5bb to build the pot in position.

8c4s is a very weak hand facing a 2.5x raise out of position; folding is clearly best.

KTo is well ahead of a wide button open and gets good odds to defend the big blind, while a 3-bet would bloat the pot out of position with an offsuit hand.

With king-high and no pair or draw on an ace-high flop out of position, checking is best; bluffing into the preflop raiser whose range hits this ace is unlikely to succeed.

Top pair with a strong kicker on an A-9-6 board with a flush draw present; bet for value and protection after the big blind checks to me.

King-high with no pair and only runner-runner Broadway draw has very low equity against a preflop raiser betting an ace-high flop, well below the price to call.

4s6d is a weak offsuit hand facing a full BB; folding preflop is the profitable play.

8-2 offsuit is among the weakest hands even heads-up in the small blind; completing out of position has negative expected value against the big blind.

7-2 suited is near the bottom of the range even on the button three-handed, with poor equity and playability against the blinds. Folding avoids paying 100 chips to contest the pot out of a weak holding.

Button folded, heads-up SB vs BB with J2s; suited jack is a reasonable open-raise in blind-vs-blind to take initiative rather than limping.

K5 offsuit is dominated against a 3x raise heads-up; calling 200 more with a weak kicker has poor equity. Folding preserves chips.
