Hold'em table

K3s is a standard wide button open in three-handed play; a small raise takes the initiative and can win the blinds without committing much.

J5 offsuit is a weak hand facing a raise from the button; folding is correct to avoid investing more chips with poor equity.

Seat 1 raised to 250 with Jc6c, a weak hand that lacks the strength to continue against a raise. Folding preserves my 9900 stack for better opportunities.

J2 offsuit is a weak hand from the button facing a raise-sized call in a 3-handed pot; not worth investing chips.

4d 3d is a weak suited connector that needs a big price to continue. Facing a raise to 100 with only 50 to call, the pot odds and hand strength don't justify a call, so folding is the disciplined play.

I have 6s7d on the button with no initiative; the blinds are live and my hand is too weak to call 100 or raise profitably, so folding minimizes losses.

Pocket nines are well ahead of a random big-blind range heads-up after the button folded, so I raise to 300 to build the pot and take the initiative.

Q7 offsuit is weak facing a raise from SB, not worth continuing as BB with a marginal hand.

KJo is ahead of a wide button opening range three-handed, so I raise to 2.5bb to take the initiative and fold out weaker hands.

ATo is a strong hand to 3-bet against a min-ish open, aiming to isolate and build the pot in position of range advantage.

With Qd5h on the button facing a 850 raise, the hand is too weak to call 750 and too marginal to bluff-raise, so folding preserves chips.

KJo has enough equity in position against one 3-bettor to continue for 600, while a 4-bet would bloat the pot with a hand that is often dominated.

Top pair top kicker on a wet board; betting for value and to deny flush/straight draws.

I have the nut open-ender on T9Q, so a raise to 3000 adds fold equity to strong equity when called. Calling only is too passive against a likely continued barrel.

Middle pair with only a backdoor flush draw is too weak to continue against a big flop raise that represents a strong range like an overpair or set.

T2 offsuit is a weak hand out of position relative to two live players; folding preflop is standard.

I have a weak offsuit hand (Tc-4d) and only need to call 50 to see a flop, but the pot odds and lack of initiative don't justify continuing with such a speculative hand. Folding preserves my stack.

I have 2c Kd, a weak offsuit hand with no pair and poor post-flop playability. Facing a 100bb pot with no prior investment, folding preserves my stack for better spots.

Button folded, so this is heads-up versus the big blind with suited ace-six. A small raise takes the initiative and builds the pot with a playable hand rather than just completing.

K6 offsuit facing a 3x raise from the small blind heads-up is too weak to continue profitably; folding is cheaper than calling out of position.
