Hold'em table

2-4 offsuit is one of the weakest starting hands. Out of position postflop against two players, it is not worth calling 100 chips, so I fold.

Q5o is too weak to complete or open-raise out of position from the small blind against the big blind.

Holding 6-2 offsuit on the button is a clear fold even in a 3-handed game.

With 85 offsuit heads-up, completing the small blind keeps the pot manageable while allowing me to play in position after the flop.

A2 suited is a good hand heads-up against a limping small blind, so I raise to 300 for value and to take the initiative, with the ace blocker and the ability to fold to a big re-raise.

8-5 offsuit plays poorly out of position against a big-blind raise, so I won't invest another 200 chips.

Pocket queens are a premium hand on the button. Raising to 300 builds the pot for value while keeping weaker hands in.

AKo is a premium hand in 3-handed play. Facing a button open to 300 from the small blind, a 3-bet to 1000 builds the pot and gives me position-disadvantage protection while getting value from worse hands.

Holding 6-2 offsuit facing an open raise and a three-bet is an easy fold.

Queens are strong enough to four-bet for value against a small-blind three-bet in a three-handed game. Raising to 2400 uses a standard in-position size.

AK offsuit is a strong hand heads-up against a button open and 4-bet range. Facing a 4-bet to 2400 after my 3-bet, shoving is a reasonable option with 100bb stacks. It gets value from worse Ax and pairs and folds out hands that are weaker or that can't continue.

With pocket queens, calling 7,600 into a 12,500-chip pot needs about 38% equity. Against a small blind shove that can include AK and some weaker pairs, calling is profitable.

7h4h is a weak offsuit-ish hand from the button facing the big blind in a 3-handed game; it is marginal, but folding avoids playing a weak hand out of position against two opponents who still have to act.

52o is far too weak to complete or raise blind vs blind out of position.

K2o is too weak to open steal on the button even 3-handed. Folding is standard.

Completing costs 50 chips and gives me a cheap chance to see a flop against one opponent. I’ll proceed cautiously with this weak hand out of position.

QTs is a strong hand heads-up against a limping small blind, so raising for value and initiative is better than checking. A 3x raise builds the pot while I have position on no one but keep a reasonable size.

Nine-five offsuit is too weak to call a raise out of position.

Q3 offsuit is too weak to open profitably from the button against two players at 100 big blinds.

2h8s is a weak offsuit hand, and out of position against the big blind it isn't worth 50 more chips, so I fold.
