Hold'em table

I have 9h-As, a weak offsuit hand with no pair and poor connectivity. Facing a 100 big blind and a 50 small blind, the pot odds don't justify calling with this speculative hand, so folding preserves my stack.

Pocket tens are a strong heads-up blind-versus-blind holding. Raising for value and to deny the big blind realization is preferable to limping.

3-4 offsuit is a very weak hand facing a small blind raise to 300; calling 200 more has poor equity and playability.

JQs is a strong button opening hand in three-handed play. Raising builds value and applies pressure to the blinds.

A9o is ahead of a wide button opening range in 3-handed play and has good equity for 200 more, but is not strong enough OOP to bloat the pot with a 3-bet.

6d 3s is a weak hand and I am out of position facing a raise plus a call; folding avoids losing chips with no edge.

With ace-high, a wheel gutshot and an overcard on a low board, checking preserves equity cheaply out of position and lets me evaluate a turn bet from the preflop raiser.

I will make a modest continuation bet with two overcards after the flop check, targeting folds from unpaired hands while keeping the pot manageable.

Ace-high with a gutshot to the nut straight and overcard outs has enough equity against a wide button range for 250 into 850, and may currently be ahead of bluffs.

Ace-high with a gutshot to the wheel on a paired board is too weak to bet for value and a bluff risks facing trips or better; check to see a free river and reassess if opponent bets.

The paired turn is a credible barrel card after my flop c-bet and can fold out many unpaired floats. A modest half-pot sizing applies pressure while preserving chips if called.

With only a pair of board 4s, ace kicker and a gutshot to a wheel, I have roughly seven clean outs against an overpair or trips range. That equity is below the 24% needed to call 500 out of position with a tough river decision likely.

K9o is a strong button opening hand in 3-handed play with position postflop. Raising to 2.5bb pressures the blinds and builds value versus weaker ranges.

I have a weak offsuit Ace with a 9 kicker and no pair. The button raised to 250, and calling 200 more with this hand is not profitable. Folding preserves my stack.

K4 offsuit is too weak to defend profitably against the button raise from the big blind.

I hold Tc6d, a weak offsuit hand that lacks playability. The pot odds don't justify calling 100 to see a flop with such a marginal holding, so folding preserves my stack.

With the button folded, A2 offsuit is well ahead of the big blind's random holding heads-up. Raising to 3bb builds value and applies pressure while retaining positional disadvantage mitigation.

K3o has enough equity against a wide small-blind steal range, and I have position postflop getting 2-to-1 pot odds to defend the big blind.

I have top pair and retain the preflop initiative. A small continuation bet extracts value from worse aces and draws while protecting against free cards.

Heads-up with second pair and a backdoor club draw, a 200 call into 800 offers good pot odds against a small one-third pot bet that includes many draws and bluffs.

I have top pair with the club blocker and should charge weaker aces, kings, nines, and club draws while denying a free river.

Pair of kings is likely behind an ace, and the main draw is a low club flush on a three-club board needing about 25% equity for this call but offering only roughly 20% clean outs, with some flush outs potentially dead to a higher club.

Qs5s is a playable suited button hand with positional advantage, so I open-raise to pressure the blinds and build initiative.

J8 offsuit is too weak to defend from the small blind against a button raise, especially out of position with the big blind still to act.

9c7d is a weak hand that struggles against a 2.5bb open from the button, and the small blind has already folded. Folding preserves my 100bb stack for better spots.

9-5 offsuit is too weak to open even on the button three-handed, with poor equity and playability against the blinds.

I hold 4d2s, a very weak hand with little potential. The big blind has already invested 100 and I only need to call 50 more, but the pot odds and hand strength don't justify continuing.
