Hold'em table

7-3 offsuit is too weak to profitably open from the button in this structure.

KQs is a strong hand heads-up against the big blind, so I raise to take initiative and build the pot while applying pressure.

Getting 3:1 against a min-raise from the SB, JTo is well ahead of a wide blind-vs-blind range and plays fine in position, so continuing is easy. Mixing in a 3-bet to 700 applies pressure, and I keep position if called.

KQs is strong enough to continue against the 3-bet, and calling keeps the pot manageable while seeing a flop. Folding would waste the 200 already invested, and 4-betting risks getting shoved on by a stronger range.

KQ high has no made hand on this paired board, so I check to keep the pot small and see how the preflop 3-bettor reacts.

Top pair on a paired, dry board as the preflop aggressor, in position; a small c-bet gets value from worse jacks and draws and denies equity to overcards.

Facing a 500-chip bet on a paired board with only KQ high and no draw, the pot odds are poor and my hand has little showdown value. Folding preserves chips for better spots.

A5o is a strong hand in blind-vs-blind play, so raising to 3bb from the small blind takes initiative and makes it likely we win the pot.

5-4 offsuit is a marginal, poorly realized defending hand out of position versus the small blind's 3x raise. Folding avoids investing further with weak equity.

Pocket eights on the button in a 3-handed game are a clear open-raise; 2.5bb puts pressure on both blinds.

T6 offsuit is too weak to continue from the small blind versus a button open, especially with the big blind still behind.

Holding 3-2 offsuit out of position facing a raise, this hand has poor equity and is not worth continuing.

Open-raising the button with a suited connected hand leverages position and gives us a playable equity realization advantage against the blinds.

Button opened wide; A2o has an ace blocker and can apply pressure with a 3-bet. Calling out of position is poor, so I'll take the aggressive line.

Q7o facing an open and a 3-bet from the small blind is a clear fold; the button can still act behind, and I'd be out of position and dominated.

4♦3♦ is far too weak to continue against a substantial 3-bet, especially out of position postflop.

On the button with a speculative offsuit connector, calling one big blind is cheap and lets me see a flop in position while keeping the pot small.

Completing the small blind for 50 into a 250 pot gives great odds with a suited-ish connector type hand multiway; out of position, but it's cheap enough to see a flop.

9-high offsuit is too weak to raise multiway from the big blind, but checking realizes our equity for free.

Holding 3-4 offsuit with no pair and no real draw on a K-T-9 board that hits both opponents' ranges, I'm out of position in a three-way pot. Checking and giving up unless the turn improves me is best.

Betting our pair of nines for value and protection against overcards and straight draws after the flop checks through.

My hand is only a gutshot straight draw with 7-6 on a K-T-9 board, and calling 200 is not worth it against a flop raise with little implied odds. Folding preserves my stack.

34 offsuit has no pair and no real draw on K-T-9. Calling 200 into 500 needs about 29% equity and I'm far below that, so I fold.

T2 offsuit is too weak to open from the button in 3-handed play against two blinds with 100bb stacks. Folding is standard here.

Q4 offsuit is a weak heads-up blind hand and does not justify completing out of position under this structure.
