Hold'em table

I have a strong hand (A-T) and position, so I'll raise to build the pot and put pressure on the blinds.

53o from the small blind facing a button 3x open, with the big blind still to act, is a clear fold. It plays out of position with poor equity.

K6 offsuit is too weak to defend against a button 3x raise heads-up from the big blind, especially without postflop positional advantage.

87s on the button in 3-handed play is a clear open; a standard 2.5bb raise lets me steal the blinds or play in position postflop.

2-3 offsuit is far too weak to defend against a button raise from the small blind, especially with the big blind still behind.

AQ is a premium hand heads-up; I'm 3-betting for value and to take initiative while out of position.

87s in position, 100bb deep, getting 2:1 against a BB 3-bet that is likely fairly wide; it has good implied odds and playability, so calling beats folding or 4-bet bluffing.

I have top pair with a good kicker on a dry board, so I'll bet for value to extract from worse hands and draws.

With 87 of diamonds on an A-K-6 two-club board, I have no pair and no draw beyond a weak backdoor straight. Calling 1200 into 2850 is unprofitable against the 3-bettor's large c-bet on a board that favors their range.

K2 offsuit is too weak to profitably enter against both blinds at this stack depth.

Calling is cheap with a small pocket pair and good pot odds; I can see a flop and try to hit a set or play a small pot out of position.

Q2o is weak out of position against a limper; I'll take the free flop rather than inflate the pot.

My pair of fours is weak on this coordinated board, so I check to keep the pot small and see the turn.

In a limped pot I have a gutshot to the Q (a 9 makes the straight) plus a queen overcard, and SB checked, so a small half-pot stab has decent fold equity and good equity when called.

AKo is a premium hand in SB vs BB, so I'm raising to 3bb for value and to play the pot in position of initiative.

A5 suited has solid equity heads-up against a small-blind opening range, and closing the action at a favorable price makes defending appropriate.

Top pair, top kicker on a dry K97 rainbow board, out of position against the big blind's flatting range. A small c-bet of about a third of the pot gets value from Kx, 9x, 7x and draws while protecting against overcards.

The small flop bet gives a favorable price to continue with ace-high, two overcards to many holdings, and backdoor spade potential against a likely wide heads-up range.

Top pair top kicker on the turn; bet about two-thirds pot for value against the many worse Kx hands and draws that call, while charging straight draws.

Ace-high has no made hand or meaningful direct draw on this board, and the turn barrel makes calling unprofitable.

K4o on the button 3-handed is a standard open; a small raise steals the blinds often.

A8 suited is a strong enough blind-versus-button hand to 3-bet for value and deny equity, while retaining playability if called.

KQ offsuit is too weak to continue against a raise and reraise, and I would be out of position with poor equity against a strong range. Folding saves chips for a better spot.

K4o is too weak to call a 3.4x 3-bet from the small blind, even in position; its equity against a 3-betting range doesn't justify putting in 600 more.

9-3 offsuit is too weak to enter with from the button against two blinds, lacking playability and equity.

KJs is a strong hand heads-up, so I raise to take initiative and put pressure on the big blind.

In a BB vs SB spot I'm getting 2:1 on a call, and SB's range is wide, so K6o is a clear defend with position; it is too weak to 3-bet for value.

C-betting this low flop with two overcards to apply pressure and take down the pot. A half-pot bet is enough to fold many unpaired hands in the opponent's range.

Top pair with a king kicker and a backdoor flush draw, getting 4:1 against a small c-bet. Calling keeps SB's bluffs in and controls the pot on a coordinated board.

I only have K-high with no real draw on a paired board, so checking keeps the pot small and lets me see a free river.

Top pair on a paired board after the preflop raiser checked the turn; a bet gets value from weaker pairs and ace-high and denies equity to overcards and straight draws.

My K-high has no pair or draw, and the turn raise from the opponent signals strength. Calling 700 with only overcard outs is -EV, so I fold.
