Hold'em table

K8 suited has reasonable button equity three-handed and benefits from taking initiative. A 3x open applies pressure while keeping risk controlled.

A6 offsuit is dominated often by the button’s 3x opening range, and calling leaves me out of position with the big blind still to act. Folding avoids a marginal, difficult spot.

Pocket threes have enough equity to call and set-mine, getting good pot odds of 200 to win 450.

With bottom pair out of position on a dry flop, I check to the preflop raiser to see his action before deciding whether to continue.

A small continuation bet leverages the preflop range advantage on this dry queen-high board and can fold out many missed hands.

Flop is Q94 rainbow and I have pocket threes, which is a very weak pair with only two outs to improve. Facing a bet from the aggressor who raised preflop, I have little showdown value and no real draw, so folding is the best play.

Q4 offsuit is too weak to open profitably from the button against two blinds, so I’ll avoid investing chips with a dominated queen and poor postflop playability.

KJ offsuit is strong heads-up after button folds; raising to 3bb builds the pot for value and puts pressure on the big blind.

A6 offsuit is strong enough to defend the big blind against a small-blind 3x open, especially heads-up.

I have two overcards and a backdoor flush draw, but no made hand. Out of position, checking is prudent to avoid bloating the pot and to see a free turn.

A small continuation bet can fold out unpaired overcards and weaker ace-high holdings after the preflop raiser checks. The paired board makes a modest sizing efficient while preserving our stack.

We have KJo with no pair and only backdoor draws on a paired board. Out of position, calling a bet with marginal equity is not profitable. Folding preserves stack for better spots.

Td Jd is a strong suited connector with good playability postflop. Raising from the button pressures the blinds and builds a pot with a hand that flops well.

A4 offsuit is too weak to continue from the small blind against a button 3x open with the big blind still behind.

Q4 offsuit is a weak holding to defend out of position against a 3x button raise. Folding avoids committing more chips with poor postflop playability.

A8 suited is a strong button opening hand in three-handed play. Raising builds the pot with initiative and can win the blinds immediately.

7♣4♠ is a very weak offsuit hand facing a 2.5bb raise, with the big blind still to act. Folding avoids investing more out of position.

J3o is a very weak hand out of position against a button raise; calling would lead to difficult postflop decisions with little equity.

KQo is a strong hand on the button in a three-handed game. Raise to build the pot and take initiative against the blinds.

2h4h is a very weak hand, especially out of position against a button raise. Folding avoids losing more chips with poor equity.

Defend the big blind against a button 3x open with suited A5, which has strong equity and postflop playability heads-up.

Check to the preflop raiser with ace-high on this paired board; we retain showdown value and can evaluate their continuation bet.

I have a strong open-ended straight draw and position on a paired flop that favors the preflop raiser. A small bet can win the pot now while keeping the draw affordable if called.

The small continuation bet gives favorable pot odds, and ace-high retains value against missed overcards and weaker broadway holdings. Calling preserves flexibility on later streets.

With ace-high and a gutshot to Broadway on this paired board, checking keeps the pot controlled and allows us to realize equity.

Bet 400 for value and protection: my two pair is ahead of many Jx and drawing hands, while a modest sizing avoids overcommitting against trips or a made straight.

Ace-high has only a gutshot to a king and is unlikely to be ahead versus continued betting on this paired, coordinated board. The turn price does not justify continuing.

62o is a very weak hand with little equity, and with both blinds still to act, it's not worth investing chips.

Heads-up against the big blind after the button folds, 9-8 offsuit is a reasonable stealing and initiative hand. I raise to 3bb to apply pressure while keeping the pot manageable out of position.

9♦3♠ is a very weak offsuit hand, and calling a 3x raise out of position is unlikely to be profitable.
