Hold'em table

K8 offsuit is a reasonable button open in a three-handed game. Raising applies pressure and takes initiative while keeping the sizing modest.

T5s is too weak to defend from the small blind facing an open raise with the big blind yet to act.

A5o is dominated and plays poorly out of position against a button open, so folding the marginal spot is best.

Ace-seven suited is well ahead of random hands on the button in 3-handed play; raising to 2.5bb is standard to build the pot in position.

82 suited is too weak to continue out of position against a button raise, especially with the big blind still to act. Folding avoids putting more chips in with a dominated hand.

3♦5♥ is a very weak, poorly playable hand out of position against a button raise. The call is not worthwhile despite the pot odds.

Q5 offsuit is too weak to open from the button even three-handed; it is dominated often and plays poorly postflop, so folding is the highest-EV line.

A2 suited is a strong heads-up hand after the button folds. Raising puts pressure on the big blind while building the pot with good postflop potential.

75o is too weak to defend against a 3bb small blind open raise.

T2 offsuit is too weak to open profitably from the button, and calling invites the blinds to see a flop with poor equity.

74s is too weak to complete or raise from the small blind out of position against the big blind.

Opening with KQo on the button to 2.5x BB is standard for value and positional advantage in 3-handed play.

K8 offsuit is too weak to continue out of position against a button raise; folding avoids a dominated, low-equity spot.

Q2 suited has enough equity to defend the big blind at these pot odds, but it is too weak to re-raise. I'll call and proceed cautiously out of position.

I have a weak bottom pair on an ace-high flop and can control the pot by checking rather than leading into the preflop raiser.

On a dry Ace-high board where I retain a significant range advantage as the preflop raiser, a small continuation bet of roughly one-third pot puts pressure on the big blind's checking range.

The small flop bet offers favorable pot odds, and bottom pair with a queen kicker has some showdown value plus improvement outs. I’ll call and reassess on the turn.

With only a weak pair of deuces and no meaningful draw, betting is unlikely to get value or fold out better hands. I’ll check and keep the pot small.

We have King-high with minimal equity after being called on the flop. Checking back behind controls the pot and gives us the option to evaluate river action.

I have a weak pair of twos, which may still beat missed draws. The river completes both a possible wheel straight and a spade flush, so bluffing into a checked pot is too risky.

I have King-high with no showdown value, but opponent called flop and the board has a potential straight; bluffing without relevant blockers risks throwing away chips against sticky pairs.

K6s is playable as a button open in three-handed poker, so I raise to 2.5bb to take the initiative rather than flat or fold.

A4 offsuit is weak and often dominated by the button’s opening range; calling out of position also risks the big blind squeezing behind.

Holding 32 offsuit out of position against a button raise is an easy fold despite getting pot odds.
