Hold'em table

6-3 offsuit is too weak to open profitably, even from the button, with no antes and a big blind still to act.

J5o is too weak to complete or raise from the small blind against the big blind, so folding avoids playing a dominated offsuit hand out of position.

Ten-three offsuit is too weak to call or raise from the button against a full big blind, so folding preserves the stack.

With a medium pair in a heads-up pot, raising is standard to apply pressure and build the pot. Being out of position, taking initiative is beneficial.

Q6 offsuit is too weak to continue against a sizable blind-versus-blind raise, even with the favorable pot odds.

K9s on the button is a strong enough hand to raise and try to take down the blinds or play a pot in position.

Q4 suited is too weak to defend from the small blind against a 3× button open, especially with the big blind still to act and poor positional prospects.

KTo has enough equity and playability versus a button 3x open to defend the big blind; a 3-bet out of position is too thin, so calling is the better price.

King-ten missed this ace-queen flop with no draw, so I check out of position and let the preflop raiser act.

I have a strong flush draw plus a gutshot with Ks on a two-spade board, but with only one opponent and no made hand, checking keeps the pot controlled and disguises my draw. I can call or raise on later streets if I improve.

King-high with no pair or draw on an ace-queen board; checking is free and a turn bluff into the preflop raiser is poorly placed.

Semi-bluffing with a flush draw and position; opponent has shown weakness by checking twice, so a bet can take it down or set up a river barrel.

King-high with only a gutshot is well behind a delayed turn bet, and the price does not justify chasing four outs.

On the button, a small open can win the blinds immediately, and 7♥2♥ retains some suited equity when called. I’m keeping the raise modest to limit losses when the blinds defend.

85 offsuit is too weak to call a button open out of position, and it has poor playability if I raise. Folding preserves chips.

J3o is a weak offsuit hand facing a button raise; calling 150 more out of position has poor equity and playability, so folding is best.

A5s is a playable button open in three-handed; a 2.5bb raise takes the initiative rather than flat-calling the big blind.

With 4d7h out of position against a button raise, this hand is too weak to call or reraise profitably, so I fold and preserve chips.

2♠3♥ is a very weak offsuit hand, and calling out of position against the button’s raise is unlikely to realize enough equity.

I have pocket kings on the button and want to raise for value while reducing the blinds' implied odds.

A8 offsuit is strong enough to pressure a wide button opening range, and a 3-bet reduces the chance of the big blind entering while avoiding a difficult out-of-position call.

A6o is too weak to continue against a button open and a small-blind 3-bet to 11bb; folding avoids putting more chips in with a dominated ace.

I have pocket kings on the button and face a small-blind 3-bet; 4-betting for value builds the pot and denies equity to weaker hands.

A♦8♥ is too weak to continue against a large 4-bet to 30bb, especially out of position. Calling would commit a substantial portion of my stack with poor equity and playability.
