Hold'em table

75o is too weak to open from the button even in 3-max play.

Ace-king suited is a strong heads-up hand against the big blind. Raising builds the pot and applies pressure despite being out of position.

7-3 offsuit is the worst starting hand; calling 250 more to defend against a 3.5bb small blind raise out of position is a losing play, so I fold.

T8 suited is a profitable button open three-handed, with position and good postflop playability.

A3o from the small blind facing a button open with the big blind still to act is a marginal, dominated hand that plays poorly out of position, so I fold rather than pay 200 more.

Holding 64 offsuit out of position against a button open is a clear fold.

J7 offsuit is a weak hand; on the button in a 3-handed pot it is marginal, but folding avoids playing a dominated hand out of position postflop against two opponents.

Completing the small blind with 87o getting 3:1 pot odds to see a flop blind vs blind.

With 5-3 offsuit, I’ll take a free flop rather than build the pot against the small blind’s limp.

I have top pair with a weak kicker in a limped blind-versus-blind pot; checking allows me to control pot size and induce bluffs.

The small blind checked after limping, and my gutshot straight draw gives me some equity when called. A small bet can win the pot immediately without risking much.

I flopped top pair on a low, somewhat coordinated board; calling the half-pot bet is standard to keep the pot manageable.

I hold second pair with a weak kicker after an overcard Queen hit the turn. Checking to control the pot is standard out of position.

I have eight straight outs, and the queen is a plausible scare card after my flop bet. A turn bet can win immediately while retaining equity when called.

Holding second pair with a weak kicker out of position facing a 75% pot barrel after an overcard Queen hit the turn makes this a disciplined fold.

97 offsuit is too weak to profitably open-raise from the button in a standard 3-handed structure.

Seven-deuce offsuit plays poorly out of position, and the small blind discount is not enough to justify continuing.

KQ suited is a strong button opening hand three-handed. Raising to 250 builds value while retaining positional advantage.

Pocket threes in the small blind facing a button min-ish raise to 250 with 3-handed play; calling 200 more gets good pot odds (about 2.75:1 with a big blind still to act) and set-mining value, and it avoids bloating the pot out of position.

Q6o is too weak to defend multiway out of position even with decent pot odds.

Pocket threes on a wet 6d9dTd flop is a weak showdown-value hand with little equity against a button continuation bet range; checking to control the pot and see how the button acts is best.

With no diamond on a monotone flop, KQ has limited immediate equity. Checking in position keeps the pot manageable while preserving the chance to improve.

Pocket threes hold only a weak showdown-value pair on a four-diamond board where I have no diamond. Villain checked back the flop, so a bet would mostly get called or raised by better hands, and checking keeps the pot small.

After two checks, a turn bet can fold out pairs without a diamond. King-high has limited showdown value here, so I prefer a modest bluff.

I hold 33 on a 6d 9d Td 2d board with a flush possible, and the button bets 400 into 1000 on the turn after checking the flop. My pair has almost no showdown value and few outs, and calling 400 to win 1400 needs about 22% equity, which I likely don't have against a range that includes flushes and made hands.

K8s on the button in 3-handed play is a solid open-raise. Position and suitedness give good equity against two blinds, so I raise to 2.5bb.

75o is too weak to continue with from the small blind facing an open raise.

J6 offsuit is marginal, but the price is reasonable against a button open, and the small blind has folded.

J6 has no pair or immediate draw on this flop. Checking avoids putting more chips in with a weak hand.

Heads-up on Q-T-5 rainbow-ish (5s, Qc, Th) with K-8 spades: a backdoor flush draw and a gutshot (K-Q-T needs J/A... actually K with Q,T gives J for straight). In position after the big blind checked, a small continuation bet of about half pot is good for equity denial and fold equity.}

J-high has no pair or immediate draw on this flop. Calling the bet is unlikely to be profitable.
