Hold'em table

42s is too weak to open profitably even from the button in 3-handed play.

9s2d is a very weak offsuit hand and I would be out of position against the big blind; folding avoids investing more chips with poor equity.

With J8s on the button in a 3-handed game, raising applies pressure on the blinds and can take the pot down immediately or build a pot with position. A standard 3x open to 300 is appropriate given the 100 big blind.

89 offsuit is too weak to call a 3bb button open out of position in the small blind, and it lacks blockers for a profitable 3-bet bluff.

Defending 97s from the big blind against a standard button open; getting attractive pot odds to see a flop.

I hit bottom pair on an ace-high board out of position against the preflop raiser, making a standard check the best play.

I raised preflop and flopped middle pair with a backdoor straight draw; betting for value and protection against overcards/draws is standard on this ace-high board.

Bottom pair with a weak kicker and no backdoors out of position facing a 60% pot c-bet on an ace-high board is a clear fold.

On the button three-handed, 6-7 offsuit is connected enough to open rather than fold. Raising pressures the blinds and lets me play in position with initiative.

Holding 83o out of position facing a button open is an easy standard fold.

T2o is a weak offsuit hand out of position facing a button raise; folding is the standard play to avoid bleeding chips.

Open-raising from the button with a strong pocket pair for value and position.

K7s has decent playability and I'm getting 2:1 to call, closing the action for 200 more into a 400 pot.

Closing the action in the big blind, calling 150 into 600 gives good pot odds with queen-high that has enough equity to defend, while raising or folding would be worse.

K-high with no pair on a paired low board; checking keeps the pot small and avoids bluffing into two players who already called a preflop raise.

With queen-high on a paired low flop and the preflop raiser still to act behind me, betting is likely to be called or raised; checking keeps the pot small and gives a free chance to improve.

I have an overpair on a dry, paired flop. A small one-third pot continuation bet extracts value from underpairs and floating broadway cards while protecting my equity.

I have only king-high with no pair on a paired board, and seat_1 has shown strength by raising preflop and again on the flop. Calling 250 with a weak draw and poor equity is not profitable, so I fold.

Q-high with no draw on a paired low board facing a flop bet out of position; calling 250 lacks sufficient equity against the preflop raiser's range.

Q9o is a marginal but playable button hand in 3-handed play; raising applies pressure on the blinds and uses position to take initiative.

Ace-ten suited is strong three-handed against a wide button open; three-betting out of position builds value, isolates the raiser, and takes initiative despite being out of position.

Holding Q2o facing an open and a 3-bet is an automatic fold.

Q9o is too weak to continue against a small-blind 3-bet, especially with the big blind already folded and no postflop equity realization edge.

Ace-Queen suited on the button is a premium hand in 3-handed play; raising builds the pot in position and pressures the blinds.

Folding 53o from the small blind against a button open raise as it is far too weak to defend.

T4o is too weak to continue against a button raise, even with decent pot odds; folding preserves chips for better spots.
