Hold'em table

Kh9h is a strong suited button holding three-handed and benefits from initiative. I raise to 3bb to pressure the blinds while retaining maneuverability.

Q9s from the small blind against a button open is a reasonable 3-bet candidate, since calling out of position with the big blind still to act is weak. A 3-bet to 11bb takes the initiative and applies fold equity.

Facing a large 3-bet with KQo out of position against two aggressive players, the pot odds don't justify a call or re-raise; folding preserves chips for better spots.

K9 suited is too weak to continue profitably against a large small-blind 3-bet, even with position.

98s on the button in a 3-handed game is a clear opening hand, so I'm raising to 2.5bb to steal the blinds and play in position.

2-7 offsuit is the worst starting hand; facing a raise with weak equity, folding is correct even from the small blind.

7-3 offsuit is far too weak to defend against the button raise out of position.

Button raise with Ace-high suited-ish hand, standard steal attempt with good equity.

8-2 offsuit is far too weak to defend from the small blind against a button 3x raise with the big blind still behind.

A8o in the big blind against a button 3x open is a clear defend: we're getting 200 to win 650, and the hand plays well heads-up. Calling is preferred over 3-betting here.

Ace-high with a backdoor club draw on a wet paired board out of position against the preflop raiser; checking keeps the pot small and lets me realize equity or check-fold to aggression.

Board is paired and dry; a continuation bet here applies pressure since BB likely missed, and I have overcard equity with A-high.

The button's bet is small, about a third of the pot, so I only need roughly 26% equity to call. On a paired board where the button c-bets a wide range, ace-high has enough showdown value plus backdoor outs to continue.

I have ace-high with a gutshot to Broadway on a paired, wet board. Checking to the preflop raiser keeps the pot controlled and lets me see what they do before I decide whether to continue.

I only have ace-high with a gutshot to the nut straight; no reason to bet into a possible slow-played hand, so I check and keep the pot manageable.

Ace-high on a paired board has decent showdown value against a range that checked back the turn, and a bet would mostly get called by better hands and fold out worse. Check to realize equity.

I hold two pair (Queens and fives) with an Ace kicker on a river where opponent has checked passively through two streets, suggesting a bet can extract value from weaker holdings while limiting risk of a raise.

Getting about 3.25:1, so ace-high only needs to win roughly 24% of the time. Villain checked back the turn, so their range is capped and includes missed diamond draws and air, which makes ace-high with the Ac blocker a reasonable bluff-catcher against this small bet.

Q3 offsuit is a weak button opening hand in this three-handed setup, so folding avoids playing a dominated hand.

Pocket deuces are well ahead of a random big-blind hand heads-up, so I'll raise to 3x from the small blind for value and fold equity rather than limp.

5h7d offsuit is weak, facing a 3bb raise with poor odds and no position; folding is correct.

43o is at the bottom of the button opening range in 3-handed play with two players left to act, so folding is the standard choice.

Ace-ten suited heads-up vs BB after button folds is a strong hand; raise for value and to isolate.

Calling the small blind's modest heads-up raise with suited 86 closes the action and realizes good positional equity in a small pot.

I hold the nut flush draw with an overcard on a dry-ish board; betting builds the pot and applies pressure while retaining strong equity if called.

We have an open-ended straight draw and sufficient direct/implied odds versus the small continuation bet. Calling preserves flexibility on later streets.

I have ace-high with no pair or draw on a king-high board; opponent has called twice, so I'll check and reassess rather than bluff into likely strength.

I have an open-ended straight draw and no showdown value. A substantial turn bet can fold out missed broadways and weaker pairs while preserving strong implied odds if called.

I have ace-high with no pair and no meaningful draw on a King-high board; facing a turn raise, this isn't worth defending.

KQ offsuit is a strong hand from the button; raising to isolate and build the pot.

7-3 offsuit is far too weak to defend from the small blind against a button raise with the big blind still behind.

The button's 3x open is likely from a wide range. Calling 200 into a 650 pot needs about 31% equity, and 76o in the big blind has enough equity and playability to defend.

76o has missed this KJ2 two-tone board, which favors the button's raising range, so I'll check and plan to fold to a bet.

Top pair of kings with a decent kicker on a flop with a flush draw present, so betting for value and protection makes sense.

76 offhand has no pair, no flush draw and no realistic straight draw on K-J-2 with two hearts. Calling 400 into 1050 needs about 28% equity and I have far less, so fold.
