Hold'em table

Pocket tens are a strong button opening hand three-handed. I raise for value and to take initiative.

A3o (ace-three offsuit) is a marginal hand in the small blind facing a raise. Against a 3x raise from the button, folding is the strongest play as this hand lacks both strength and good playability postflop. The pot odds don't justify calling with such a weak holding.

Getting 2.25:1 with a decent offsuit connector against a wide button open, so I call and evaluate the flop.

With a weak flush draw and no made hand, I check out of position to control the pot and see a free turn card. Betting into a preflop raiser on a monotone board risks a raise and my draw is not to the nuts.

A small continuation bet extracts value from weaker pairs and draws while leveraging the Td blocker on this monotone board. It also keeps the pot manageable against stronger flushes.

QJo is a premium hand in 3-handed play, especially on the button. I'm raising to build the pot and take control of the hand against the small and big blinds.

T3s is too weak to continue out of position against a 6bb button raise, especially with the big blind still to act.

7-6 offsuit is too weak to defend profitably against a large 6bb button open while out of position.

Q6o is a marginal but playable button hand in a 3-handed game; raising applies pressure on the blinds and leverages position.

J6 offsuit is too weak to defend from the small blind against a button raise, especially with the big blind still behind.

A6o is a marginal hand out of position against a button raise. Folding preserves chips and avoids a difficult postflop situation where I'll be out of position against an aggressive opener.

Button open with A-high and an 8 suited is a profitable steal in a three-handed game; raising applies pressure while retaining playability.

J4o is a weak hand, and facing a 2.5x raise from the button in early action, folding is the standard play to preserve chips. The hand lacks the strength to justify further investment.

T2o is a very weak hand with poor playability. We're out of position in a 3-handed game facing a big blind who could easily have a strong range. Folding minimizes losses against superior hands.

The button folded and KJs is well ahead of a random big-blind range, so I raise for value and initiative.

9-6 offsuit has sufficient equity to defend the big blind against a small-blind 3x open, especially with position postflop.

I have top pair with a good kicker on a coordinated board; betting for value and protection against draws.

I have an open-ended straight draw in position and can realize additional equity on later streets against this small continuation bet.

We have a made nine-high straight and should value bet against trips, overpairs, and pair-plus-draw holdings after the turn check. A half-pot sizing extracts value while limiting exposure to stronger straights or full houses.

I have two pair (Jacks and Tens) with a king kicker, and the opponent's turn bet looks like a probe or draw. Raising for value and protection against straight and flush draws.

We have an open-ended straight draw and are receiving a playable price with substantial implied odds against the turn check-raise.

Our hand is only the paired-board hand with a nine kicker after facing a strong turn check-raise. Checking takes the showdown value rather than risking a bluff into a likely strong range.

T5s has decent suited potential and this is a 3-handed button spot; opening to 300 applies pressure and avoids playing a marginal hand passively.

3h2c offsuit is too weak to defend from the small blind against a 3bb button open, especially with the big blind still behind.

7-9 offsuit is a weak hand with poor playability. Against a 3x raise from the button, folding is optimal as this hand lacks the equity and potential to profitably call out of position.
