Hold'em table

In position on the button with 65s, I call to see a cheap flop and use my positional advantage postflop.

AJo is significantly ahead of a button limping range 3-handed, so raising to isolate for value is optimal.

K3 offsuit is too weak to continue against the small blind's raise, especially with the button still to act. Avoid paying 300 chips out of position with a hand likely dominated.

We have suited connectors in position with deep stacks, getting 2:1 odds. Calling to see a flop and leverage our positional advantage.

I hold top pair with top kicker on a wet board and c-bet for value and protection.

With middle pair and a flush draw, I have decent equity and can put pressure on Seat 2's likely wide preflop raising range. Raising also builds the pot for when I hit.

I hold top pair with top kicker on a wet board; getting over 3-to-1 pot odds, calling is the most standard play to keep their bluffs and semi-bluffs in.

We hold top pair top kicker in a raised and raised pot. Checking allows us to pot control out of position and evaluate villain's aggression.

We spiked top two pair on the river after calling a flop raise. Sizing around half pot allows worse Aces and Jacks to call while maximizing value.

We hold only a pair of fives with no flush or straight potential. The opponent's river lead after the ace suggests a value hand, and the pot odds don't justify a call with such a weak showdown hand.

On the button in 3-handed play, J9o is well within a standard opening range to steal the blinds or play in position.

J3 offsuit is too weak to defend out of position against a button raise, even at this price.

TJo has decent playability and I'm getting 4.5:1 pot odds; folding or raising seem worse than seeing a cheap flop out of position.

We have top pair with a gutshot straight draw, but out of position against the preflop raiser. Checking allows us to see their action and control the pot size.

Flopped an open-ended straight draw with position and preflop initiative; betting 200 as a standard c-bet to apply pressure and build the pot.

Have middle pair with ten and a double gutter straight draw (any 9 or K gives a straight), getting good pot odds to call 200 into 650, so flatting is the best play with showdown value and decent equity.

I have two pair but the board paired Queens, and my opponent could easily have a Queen. Checking to control the pot and see a cheap river.

We have an open-ended straight draw in position on a paired board; checking back controls the pot and takes a free card.

Two pair with Queens and Tens is decent, but a Queen beats us and Villain may have one. Checking down avoids inflating the pot and gets to showdown cheaply.

I paired my nine on the river to make two pair (Queens and Nines). Checking behind captures showdown value against missed draws without risking a check-raise.

K6 offsuit is a reasonable button open in a three-handed game; raising applies pressure to the blinds and takes initiative.

A8o is a decent hand to 3-bet from the small blind against a button open in 3-handed play. Raising to 750 applies pressure, isolates the button, and avoids playing out of position multiway.

Facing a button open and a small blind 3-bet, A9o is clearly dominated and should be folded from the big blind.

K♦6♠ is a weak offsuit hand facing a sizable three-bet from the small blind. It has poor equity and playability, so calling or continuing aggressively is not worthwhile.

I have 4s6d off-suit, a very weak hand. As the button, I could try to steal, but it's too risky with no investment. Folding preserves my stack.

Holding 32o out of position is the worst possible hand and an easy fold from the small blind.

KJo is well within the standard button opening range in 3-handed play; raising to 2.5bb for value and position.

T7 offsuit is too weak to continue out of position against a button raise, especially with the big blind still to act.

83o is too weak to defend out of position against a button raise; folding preserves chips with minimal equity.

J5 offsuit is marginal, but on the button in a three-handed game it is playable as an open. Raise to 2.5 big blinds to take initiative and apply pressure to the blinds.

Tc9c is a playable suited connector getting 2:1 pot odds with implied odds against a wide button opening range; calling keeps the pot manageable while allowing the big blind to come along, improving our odds.

Getting 4 to 1 pot odds closing the action in the big blind with a suited Queen, making this an easy defend multiway.

I have no pair and only backdoor draws on this dry flop; I'll check and see how the others act.

Top pair with a weak kicker in a 3-way pot out of position against the preflop raiser is a clear check to control pot size.

I have a weak pair with little need to build the pot; checking preserves showdown value and avoids a raise from either opponent.

I have nothing on this board, only a gutshot straight draw, and I'm out of position against two opponents. Checking controls the pot and sees how they react on the turn.

Second pair with a weak kicker in a multiway pot; checking to control the pot size and see action behind.

I have a weak pair of fives with no strong draw, so I’ll take the free card and avoid inflating the pot.

I have ten-high and missed the board completely; a bluff is the only way to win the pot. Betting 400 represents a king or queen and might fold out weak hands after two checks.

We rivered two pair (Queens and Sevens) after the flop and turn checked around. Calling is comfortable to beat bluffs and single-pair Kings while keeping risk managed with a player left to act.

A small pair is unlikely to beat a river lead and a call in a three-way pot, and I have no meaningful improvement or blocker to justify calling.
