24o is too weak to call or raise even on the button in a three-handed pot, so folding saves the big blind.

A9 offsuit is strong enough to raise against the big blind after the button folds. Raising to 300 builds value and takes initiative heads-up.

Defending the big blind in position against a small blind open with suited connector-gapper J6s.

A small continuation bet can fold out unpaired hands and deny equity while risking little with ace-high. The board is low enough that I can also check back if called on later streets.

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

With pocket aces on the button, raise for value and to thin the field while keeping weaker hands in.

Folding 64s from the small blind facing a 3x button open with the big blind yet to act.

Pocket fours have enough equity and implied odds against a button open to continue. Calling keeps the pot small out of position rather than bloating it with a weak three-bet.

Pocket fours are an underpair to the queen on a dry flop, so I check to the preflop raiser and keep the pot small rather than betting into their range.

With pocket aces on a relatively dry flop, a small value bet can get calls from queens and weaker pairs while charging overcards.

Pocket fours have showdown value and the 225 bet into 875 offers pot odds that justify a call out of position rather than folding or bloating the pot.

I have only a weak pair of fours on a queen-high board against the preflop raiser who c-bet the flop, so checking controls the pot and lets me react to their turn action.

With an overpair on a draw-heavy board, I want value from Qx and worse pairs while charging club and straight draws. A moderate turn bet keeps weaker hands in while protecting my equity.

Pocket fours are a weak underpair to the queen with dirty set outs, and a 650 call needs more equity than this hand has against a continued turn barrel.

Opening from the button with an ace to apply pressure on the blinds.

T3o is too weak to continue against a button raise, especially out of position with the big blind still to act. Folding saves chips for better spots.

The min-raise gives me favorable pot odds in the big blind, so I’ll call rather than inflate the pot with a weak offsuit hand.

With 8-high and no meaningful draw on a flop that can connect with the raiser's range, I check rather than bluff into the preflop raiser.

We hold bottom pair with an Ace kicker and backdoor flush potential, making it an ideal candidate to check back for pot control and showdown value.

I have no made hand, but a four on the river would complete a wheel straight. With no bet to call, checking takes the free card.

Turned top two pair with Ad 2h after checking the flop; betting roughly two-thirds pot for value against Ax, Jx, or flush draws.

I have only a weak gutshot possibility and no pair, so calling the turn bet is not justified.

J5 offsuit is too weak to open from the button in a three-handed game; folding avoids a dominated, poorly playable hand.

Calling costs only 50 more to contest a 150-chip pot, and the big blind may check behind on many flops. Raising this weak hand would be unprofitable.

Checking our option with T9o to see a free flop in position against the small blind completion.

I have no pair or meaningful draw on this dry flop, so checking avoids investing chips with a weak hand. I can reassess if I improve or face a bet.}

I have ten-high with no direct draw on an Ace-King board in a limped pot, so taking a free card is the standard play.

I have no meaningful showdown value or draw, and the checked-through flop gives little reason to build the pot with a bluff on this paired board.

Seat 2 has shown weakness by limping preflop and checking both flop and turn; a half-pot stab can efficiently take down the pot with our ten-high air.

I have only a very unlikely runner-runner straight draw and no meaningful showdown value, so calling 100 into 300 is not justified.

On the button, 6♠4♣ is weak but can profitably apply pressure in a three-handed pot. A modest open gives the blinds a chance to fold without risking too much when called.

ATo is strong enough from the small blind against a button open to 3-bet for value and initiative out of position.

KTs is too weak to continue out of position against an open and a 3-bet, with the original raiser still to act. Folding avoids a dominated, multiway spot.

64 offsuit is too weak to continue against a sizable 3-bet, even with position and favorable pot odds.

J7o is too weak to profitably open from the button in 3-handed play.

74s has enough equity versus an unopened big blind to call 50 into 150, and raising out of position would bloat the pot with a weak hand.

Q8 suited is strong heads-up against the small blind’s limp, so I’ll raise for value and take initiative.

74 suited is too weak to continue out of position against a raise after my limp; calling or reraising is -EV.
