Hold'em table

Q6 offsuit is a weak hand out of position postflop against two opponents, and calling 100 to win 150 is not enough to justify playing it, so folding on the button is the safer choice.

Facing only the big blind after the button folds, J8o is ahead of a random hand and can be opened for value and initiative from the small blind.

Against a small-blind raise, 85o has enough equity to defend the big blind at this price, especially with position after the flop.

C-betting small on an Ace-high paired board where my preflop opening range has a substantial range advantage.

Eight-high has little showdown value on this paired ace-high flop, and no immediate draw. Even against a small bet, continuing is unlikely to be profitable.

7h 3s is far too weak to open raise or play even from the button in 3-handed play.

With 8-6 offsuit heads-up against the big blind, completing for 50 chips is preferable to folding or building a larger pot out of position.

Ace-x suited-less but A4o is a strong hand heads-up against a limping small blind; raising for value and to take initiative in position-disadvantaged spot is reasonable with a modest sizing.

8-6 offsuit plays poorly out of position against a raise, and calling another 200 chips is unlikely to be profitable.

A8 offsuit is a strong button opening hand three-handed. A 2.5 big-blind raise builds the pot while preserving position.

4s2s is a weak hand out of position against a button raise, with a big blind still left to act behind me. Calling 200 more is not worth it, so I fold.

J4o is too weak to defend out of position against a button raise.

J9 suited on the button in a 3-handed game is a solid open. A small raise to 2.5bb takes the initiative against the two blinds and puts pressure on them to fold.

Holding 43o out of position against a button open is an easy fold.

A7 offsuit has enough equity to defend the big blind against a button raise, and calling keeps the pot manageable out of position.

With ace-high on a dry flop, I’ll check to the preflop raiser and avoid building the pot without a made hand.

Top pair with a jack kicker... actually a pair of nines with a good kicker and a backdoor-ish draw on a wet board; betting about 2/3 pot for value and protection against overcards and straight draws after the big blind checked. ,

A7 offsuit has only an overcard and weak backdoor draws on this flop. Calling a sizable bet out of position is unlikely to be profitable.

Opening from the button with J9o, which plays well in position against the blinds in a 3-handed game.

Nine-seven suited has enough playability to defend against a small button raise at this price, though I’ll be out of position.

AKs is a premium hand in a three-way pot. Raising to 800 builds the pot and isolates against the button raiser and the small blind caller while I have a strong equity edge.

J9o opened from the button is an easy fold facing a 3-bet squeeze from the big blind.

Calling the 8bb squeeze with 97 suited leaves me out of position against a strong range. The dead money doesn't sufficiently offset the poor equity realization.

J2 suited is a marginal but playable button open three-handed. A small raise uses position while limiting the investment with a weak hand.

32 offsuit is the worst starting hand. Calling 150 more out of position against a button raise with a big blind still to act is a losing play, so I fold.

Q2o is far too weak to defend out of position against a button min-raise.
