Hold'em table

73o is too weak to open from the button in 3-handed play with 100bb stacks, so folding is standard.

K-Q suited is strong heads-up against the big blind, so I raise for value despite being out of position.

JTo offsuit is a reasonable big-blind defend against a small-blind raise, and the price is favorable. Calling keeps weaker hands in and preserves its postflop playability.

A small continuation bet pressures the big blind's unpaired hands on this dry flop, while KQ has two overcards to the jack and a backdoor club draw.

Top pair on a dry paired board is strong enough to continue against this small bet, but raising risks isolating against a stronger jack or overpair.

The turn changes little, and K-high has some showdown value. After the flop call, a second bluff is unlikely to fold out many better hands, so I’ll check.

I have top pair with a solid kicker and should value-bet while charging overcards and draws. A 600-chip bet is substantial but keeps weaker hands in the pot.

With only two overcards on a dry board, KQ has too little equity against the hands likely to call the flop and bet the turn.

J7 suited is strong enough to open on the button three-handed. A 2.5 big blind raise pressures the blinds while keeping the investment modest.

A5 offsuit has enough equity against a button’s wide opening range to defend at this price, though calling keeps the pot manageable out of position with the big blind still to act.

Closing the action from the big blind, I need 150 more to win a 600 pot, which is 20% equity needed, and 54o plays fine multiway with 100bb deep for straights. Calling is cheap and I won't face a further raise preflop.

Top pair with a weak kicker has showdown value, but the connected, two-club flop is risky multiway. Check to control the pot and avoid building it against stronger aces or strong draws.

54 offsuit with only a backdoor flush draw has little equity on an AQJ board. The preflop raiser is still to act, so a multiway bluff here is poor and checking is best.

Bottom pair with a weak kicker is unlikely to get value from worse hands on this coordinated flop, especially against two opponents. Checking keeps the pot manageable.

A small turn bet can get value from weaker pairs and worse aces while charging straight draws. The weak kicker and connected board make a larger bet unattractive.

54o has almost no equity on Qd Ac Jc 9h, just a gutshot-free weak holding facing a bet with a player still to act, so folding is clearly best.

The small turn bet offers good pot odds, and my pair of jacks can still beat draws and weaker pairs. I’ll call rather than raise on this connected board.

I have top pair but a weak kicker on a connected board, and the opponent called my turn bet. Checking avoids a thin value bet that could be called by better hands while preserving showdown value.

A pair of jacks has showdown value, but worse hands are unlikely to call a river bet often enough to justify risking a raise.

Pocket eights are a strong button opening hand; a small raise builds value and applies pressure to the blinds.

T6 offsuit from the small blind facing a button open is too weak to call out of position with the big blind still to act. Folding is standard here.

Three-deuce offsuit is too weak to defend against a button raise, even with a discounted call from the big blind.

Three-handed on the button, 43s is a reasonable part of a wide opening range, with good playability and fold equity against the blinds. A small open to 2.5bb keeps the risk low.

A2 offsuit plays poorly out of position against a button raise, especially with the big blind still to act.

Q7 offsuit is too weak to 3-bet, but the price is favorable against a button raise in a heads-up pot. Call and evaluate the flop.

I have only queen-high with little immediate equity on an ace-king-high flop. Checking keeps the pot small and preserves the option to continue if the opponent checks back.

The board is A-K-3, which strongly favors the preflop raiser's range, and we hold bottom pair plus a backdoor flush draw. A small c-bet of about a third of the pot takes advantage of that range edge and can fold out better hands.

Q-high has no pair or meaningful draw on this A-K-3 board, and calling the flop bet would leave us out of position with little chance to improve. Fold to preserve chips.

On the button in a three-handed pot, 76 offsuit is playable as an open-raise. Raising to 2.5 big blinds gives me a chance to win the blinds and keeps position if called.

3-4 offsuit is too weak to call a button raise from the small blind, especially out of position and facing a sizable raise.

Getting about 27% pot odds in the big blind against a wide button open, so 95o is a reasonable defend with position disadvantage offset by price.

Middle pair with a weak kicker on a connected K-high board that favors the preflop raiser, so I check out of position for pot control. I plan to call a reasonable c-bet.

This board connects well with the big blind’s calling range, so a bluff is unlikely to get enough folds. Checking behind preserves the option to improve or bluff on a later street.

The button checked back the flop, which caps their range. A small turn bet with middle pair gets thin value from pocket pairs and weaker hands, and denies equity to overcards and gutshots.

I have only a gutshot and seven-high. Calling 190 is not justified by the pot odds.

T♠2♥ is too weak to continue from the button against the big blind, even with position and favorable pot odds.

In a blind-vs-blind spot with Q4o, the hand is a reasonable raise with a wide small-blind range. A 3bb open applies pressure and still leaves room to fold to a 3-bet. (fallback-safe: 300 is within the legal range of 200–10000)

Pocket sevens are strong enough to defend against a small-blind raise. Calling keeps weaker hands in and lets me play in position after the flop.

A small one-third-pot c-bet with queen high, a backdoor flush draw and backdoor straight potential can fold out better high cards, and it keeps our range balanced on a dry low board.

Top set is a very strong hand on a board with a possible flush draw. Raising builds the pot and charges draws while leaving room for worse made hands to call.

Q-high with only backdoor draws and a weak club gives far too little equity against a big check-raise, even at roughly 31% pot odds. Folding is the clear play.
