Hold'em table

K5o is too weak to profitably open from the button even in 3-handed play.

The button has folded, leaving a heads-up pot and only 50 chips to complete. The price is good enough to see a flop with this hand.

QJo is strong heads-up against a limper; raising builds the pot and isolates the SB while I have position on them postflop.

With offsuit 6-2, calling the raise from the small blind is unprofitable; fold and preserve the remaining stack.

K3 offsuit is a reasonable button open in a three-handed game, and raising takes advantage of position while applying pressure to the blinds.

T5o is far too weak to call a 2.5x button raise out of position against two opponents; folding loses the least.

AJo is well ahead of a typical button opening range in 3-handed play; raising to 9.5bb extracts value and takes the initiative out of position.

K3 offsuit is too weak to continue against the big blind’s large three-bet, even with position. Fold and preserve the remaining stack.

Ace-King offsuit is a premium hand and I have position on both blinds, so a standard 3x open builds the pot while keeping control postflop.

Holding J2o in the small blind against a button open is an easy standard fold.

2♥6♣ is a very weak offsuit hand, and calling the button’s raise from the big blind is not worthwhile despite the pot odds.

43 offsuit is far too weak to open from the button, so folding is clearly the standard play.

54 suited is playable heads-up against the big blind, and the pot odds make completing the small blind preferable to folding.

AQs is a premium hand and I have position postflop against a limping small blind, so I raise for value and to build the pot.

54 suited is too weak to continue out of position against a sizable raise; calling would require too much equity, and a bluff-raise is unattractive here.

J5 offsuit is weak, but on the button in a three-handed pot it can profitably apply pressure to the blinds with a small open raise.

King-seven offsuit is far too weak to defend against a 2.5x raise from the button, especially out of position as the small blind. Folding preserves chips for better spots.

Getting 2.67-to-1 pot odds against a button open in 3-max, A6o has plenty of equity to defend from the big blind.

As the preflop caller out of position on a board favoring the button's range with only Ace-high, checking is standard.

With a weak-kicker second pair on a king-high board, checking back controls the pot and preserves showdown value.

I hold Ace-high with showdown value after the flop checked through, making a check the most prudent play to see the river.

My pair of jacks has some showdown value, but the paired kings make a thin value bet risky against a range that can check stronger hands. I’ll take the free river.

I have Ace-high showdown value on a paired board after action checked through flop and turn. Checking allows me to see a showdown cheaply against missed air.

My pair of jacks with a weak kicker is a modest showdown hand on this paired board. A bet is unlikely to get called by worse often enough, so I’ll take the free showdown.

74o is far too weak to play even from the button in a 3-handed game; folding preserves chips for better spots.

Holding J9o in the small blind after the button folds, opening with a standard 3bb raise is standard and profitable blind-versus-blind.

2♥6♣ is a very weak offsuit hand, and calling 200 more out of position against the raise is not worthwhile.
