Hold'em table

56o is a weak hand and not worth playing out of position after the flop even from the button in a 3-handed game.

J8 offsuit is too weak to raise against the big blind, but completing for 50 to see a flop heads-up is cheap and reasonable.

37o is too weak to raise for value or as a bluff against the limper; checking realizes the free option in the big blind.

J8o missed the K95 flop entirely; with no draw and a checked pot, checking back is the safe line and avoids building a pot out of position.

I have seven-high with no pair or draw on K95, so there is no value in betting. Checking keeps the pot small and avoids spewing chips with air.

My J8o picked up a double gutshot (any 6 or T makes a straight) and the BB has shown only weakness by checking twice. A half-pot stab often takes the limped pot outright while my draw gives me equity when called.

I have only bottom pair with a weak kicker facing a turn bet, and the board favors many stronger hands. Folding avoids paying off with a marginal holding.

8-6 offsuit is too weak to play from the button against two blinds, even at cheap pot odds; folding preserves chips for better spots.

Button folded, so this is heads-up versus the big blind. K8o is playable enough to raise for initiative rather than flat out of position.

Pocket 88 is a decent hand but not strong enough to 3bet OOP against a min-raise; calling keeps the pot manageable while I look to hit a set or play post-flop with position info.

King-high with no pair and no real draw on a low connected flop has little showdown value and poor equity when called, so I check rather than bluff into the big blind.

I hold an overpair (88) on a low, somewhat wet board with a flush draw present, so betting for value and protection is best after the check.

King-high with no pair and no draw on a low board has too little equity to continue against a flop bet.

AKo is a premium hand on the button, so I open-raise to 3x for value and to take control of the pot rather than flat the big blind.

AK is a premium hand; 3-betting the button's open builds the pot and can isolate against a single opponent.

6s8s is far too weak to call an 800-chip 3-bet out of position, especially with the original raiser still to act behind me and risk of a 4-bet. Folding preserves chips for a better spot.

AK offsuit is strong enough to 4-bet the small blind's 3-bet for value and fold equity, and 2400 is a standard size that keeps the pot manageable.

Q7 offsuit is a weak hand out of position with no blind advantage; folding preserves chips.

A3s from the SB heads-up against the BB is worth a small steal raise; fold equity plus suited ace playability makes raising better than calling or folding.

K6o is too weak and disconnected to continue against a small-blind raise, even heads-up with position. Folding avoids dominated king spots and poor flops.

Ace-nine suited-less on the button in 3-handed play is a standard opening raise; I'll take the initiative and play for the blinds or a favorable flop.

T3s is too weak to continue out of position against a button open to 3bb; folding avoids dominated, low-equity spots.

A3o offers decent equity heads-up against a button open, and pot odds justify a call rather than folding or raising into an unknown range.

I have ace-high with no pair or strong draw on a dry board, so checking to control the pot and see more action is best.

I have top pair top kicker (A9 on a 2-6-9 flop) and the preflop aggressor's initiative after the big blind checks. Betting around 60% of pot extracts value from weaker nines, draws, and A-high while protecting against straight draws.

Ace-high with a weak kicker on a dry board facing a continuation bet is not worth continuing; better to fold and preserve chips.

Q9o is playable as a button open in three-handed poker with position, so I make a standard 2.5bb raise rather than limp or fold.

2-10 offsuit is a weak hand facing a raise; folding is correct from the small blind.

5-2 offsuit is one of the worst hands in hold'em, and facing a 2.5x raise from the button I have no equity or position edge worth calling 150 more. Folding preserves chips for better spots.
