Hold'em table

76o on the button in 3-handed play is a standard open; a 2.5bb raise applies pressure on the blinds.

A7 offsuit is strong enough to contest a button open three-handed. Raising from the small blind applies pressure and reduces the chance of playing a multiway pot out of position.

A8 offsuit is too weak to continue against a large three-bet, especially with the opener still behind me.

76 offsuit plays poorly against a large small-blind 3-bet, even in position, and calling 7bb out of a 20bb pot isn't profitable here. Folding keeps the loss small.

On the button three-handed, J4 offsuit is playable as a small open raise with position.

J♠4♥ is too weak to continue from the small blind against a button raise, especially with the big blind still to act.

82o is among the weakest hands and plays poorly out of position against a button open, even at 150 to win 400; folding is standard.

On the button in a three-handed pot, 8♠6♦ is playable as a light open; raising applies pressure and gives me initiative.

95o from the small blind facing a button open with the big blind still to act is a clear fold; the hand is too weak to call out of position or to 3-bet.

The button can open a wide range three-handed, and the price is reasonable with no rake. I’ll defend the big blind rather than build a larger pot out of position with J5 offsuit.

I have bottom pair on a connected, two-club flop. Checking keeps the pot manageable and lets me respond to the button's action.

I have top two pair on a connected, two-club flop, so I’m betting for value while charging draws and overcards.

Bottom pair on a connected, two-club flop is too weak to continue out of position against this sizable bet.

KQs on the button in 3-handed is a strong open; a standard 2.5bb raise builds the pot while keeping worse hands in.

K2 offsuit is too weak to defend from the small blind against a button raise, especially with the big blind still to act.

Q5 offsuit is marginal, but the price is favorable and I can defend the big blind against a button raise heads-up.

With a modest middle pair and no bet to call, check and keep the pot small.

The dry T-5-3 board favors my button opening range. KQ has two overcards and a backdoor flush draw, so a small c-bet takes the pot often and keeps my equity when called.

I have a pair of fives and face a small continuation bet, so calling is reasonable while keeping weaker bets and bluffs in the pot.

A pair of fives with a queen kicker is a modest showdown hand on this connected board. I’ll check and avoid building the pot without a stronger hand or a clear draw.

KQ high with no draw on a turn that improves the big blind's calling range (A2, 67, 26 straights and heart draws). A bluff is unlikely to fold out the pairs they called the flop with, so I'll take the free river card for my overcard outs.

My pair of fives is weak, and after the flop call and turn check-back, a river bet is unlikely to get called by worse hands often enough. I’ll take the showdown value and check.

King-high will rarely win at showdown against a big blind who called the flop and then checked twice, which suggests a capped range full of weak pairs. A 600 bet (about two-thirds pot) needs roughly 40% folds and represents a Tx hand or a straight.

Q5 is only a weak pair, and the river bet can be supported by many value hands such as a ten, an overpair, or a straight. I’ll avoid paying off with a bluff-catcher that blocks some of the missed queen-high hands.

A small pocket pair is worth opening on the button, where position helps control the pot and realize its value.

T6 offsuit is too weak to continue from the small blind against a button raise, especially with the big blind still to act.

QTo in the big blind facing a 2.5x button open getting 150 into 400 is a clear defend; calling keeps the pot manageable versus a wide button range.

Top pair with a weak kicker out of position against the button's opening range; checking to the preflop raiser controls the pot and lets me check-call most bets.

My small pair has some showdown value, but little incentive to build the pot on this flop. Checking back keeps weaker hands and bluffs in.

Top pair with a weak kicker, and the button checked back the flop, which caps its range. Betting about 64% of the pot gets value from 9x, weaker queens and draws, and protects against the flush draws on board.

Pocket threes have little chance to improve, and a turn bet on this board is likely to have me beaten. Calling 350 is not worth it.

42 offsuit is too weak to continue for a full big blind, even with position; folding avoids investing into a likely multiway pot.

73o from the small blind vs the big blind is a weak, out-of-position hand. Folding is fine, and completing or raising would have marginal expected value at best.
