Hold'em table

With A9o on the button in a 3-handed game, raising applies pressure and takes initiative against the blinds. A standard 3x raise to 300 is enough to fold out weak hands while keeping my risk controlled.

Defend the big blind heads-up with JTs against a button min-raise; it has strong playability and good equity.

Check to the preflop raiser with a jack-high flush draw and likely retain the option to respond aggressively to a continuation bet.

Continuation bet with ace-high and a backdoor nut flush draw on a low flop; betting can fold out better unpaired hands and take down the pot.

Call with the jack-high heart flush draw at a favorable small continuation-bet price, retaining implied odds against the button.

I have a jack-high flush on this three-heart board and should bet for value against worse flushes, sets, and pair-plus-heart hands. A substantial sizing builds the pot while retaining calls from weaker holdings.

Queen-two offsuit is a weak hand in early position. Folding preserves chips and avoids playing a marginal hand against two opponents who have already committed to the pot.

Defending the small blind heads-up for 50 more with a suited king is appropriate given the price and positional disadvantage.

As5s is ahead of the small blind's limping range, so I raise for value and take the initiative while in position postflop.

K3 suited is too weak to continue from the small blind against a big blind isolation raise after the button folded.

7-4 offsuit is too weak to profitably open from the button under these stack depths.

KJo is strong enough to raise heads-up against the big blind after the button folded; a 2.5x raise applies pressure and can take the pot down preflop.

2-4 offsuit is one of the weakest hands in poker. Facing a raise to 250 from early position, folding is the correct play. With a 9900-chip stack, I can afford to wait for better opportunities.

With 4s3d offsuit on the button, this is a very weak hand that plays poorly even in position. Folding avoids investing chips with minimal equity and poor postflop potential.

T2o is a weak hand with poor equity against the big blind's range. Even as the small blind with only 50 more to call, the hand doesn't justify continuing, especially in a 3-handed game where position and hand strength matter significantly.

King-Queen offsuit is a strong hand in 3-handed play. Raising from the button to 400 chips (4x the big blind) builds the pot with a premium hand and applies pressure to both opponents, improving my position and win rate in a favorable spot.

K7 offsuit is too weak to continue from the small blind versus a 4x open with the big blind still to act.

QTo has enough equity against a button steal range to defend from the big blind, and calling closes the action with good pot odds.

I have only queen-high with no real draw on a paired board, so checking as the first active player keeps the pot controlled and avoids building a large pot out of position.

I have K-Q offsuit on a 5-5-4 flop with no pair or draw. Opponent checked to me, so I have a favorable position. Checking keeps the pot manageable and allows me to see the turn card at minimal risk before committing more chips with a marginal holding.

Opponent checked the flop, suggesting weakness; a turn bet can take down the pot or deny a free card.

With Queen-King offsuit on a paired board (5-4-5-7), my hand is weak and vulnerable. Seat 1 bet 500 on the turn after checking the flop, indicating a strong holding (likely a pair or draw that completed). Calling 500 to chase an unpaired overcard is poor value. Folding preserves chips for better opportunities.

A5 offsuit is a strong enough button hand to open in three-handed play. Raising applies pressure to the blinds while retaining positional advantage.

98o is a marginal offsuit connector out of position against a button open; calling risks a squeeze and poor postflop realization, so folding preserves chips.

8-5 offsuit is a weak hand that doesn't warrant calling a 2.5x raise from the button. Folding preserves chips and avoids a marginal situation out of position.
