Hold'em table

Suited connector on the button in a 3-handed pot; a standard raise builds the pot with position and decent equity, and I can fold to heavy resistance.

K2 offsuit is too weak to defend from the small blind versus a button open with the big blind still behind.

A9 suited is a strong button opening hand three-handed, with good equity and playability. A standard raise applies pressure while preserving postflop flexibility.

2T offsuit is a weak hand that faces a 2.5x raise from the button. Folding the small blind against a position raise with marginal holdings preserves chips for better opportunities.

J9 offsuit facing a 2.5x raise from the button with SB already folded is not worth defending as BB; folding preserves chips for better spots.

Cheap price to see a flop heads-up with a live if weak hand; folding here loses value given the small remaining bet.

Check the big blind with 6-4 offsuit rather than inflate a heads-up pot with a weak holding.

I only have bottom pair with three diamonds on board, so I'll check and control the pot size against a possible flush draw.

I have a pair with an open-ended straight draw and can apply pressure to unpaired hands in this limped pot. A small continuation bet also charges random overcards and draws.

K8o on the button in a 3-handed game is a reasonable raising hand; a standard open size applies pressure on the blinds.

2d4d is far too weak to continue from the small blind against a button open, especially with the big blind still to act.

Holding pocket 3s, I'm facing a 250 chip raise from seat_1 to a 150 chip call. While 3s is a reasonable hand, the positional disadvantage (big blind) and the aggressive raise suggest I should fold and preserve chips rather than play a marginal hand out of position.

Kh7h is a playable suited king on the button; raising isolates and applies pressure to the blinds while retaining postflop position.

As7c is a strong hand (premium ace). Raising to 3bb helps build the pot, isolate weaker holdings, and assert dominance from the button position early in the match.

A6 suited has sufficient equity and playability to defend the big blind against a button 3x open heads-up.

Ace-high has some showdown value in this raised pot, but this board favors the preflop raiser and offers little reason to build a pot without a draw.

I have As7c on a JhKc3c flop—a high card ace but weak kicker. Seat 2 checked, indicating weakness. Checking is prudent to control pot size and see the turn before committing more chips with a marginal holding.

The button checked back the flop and may have many unpaired broadways or weak holdings. A modest turn probe credibly represents a king, jack, or nine while risking little relative to the pot.

I have As7c on a JhKc9h board. With an ace-high hand and weak kicker against an opponent who raised 400 on the turn, folding preserves my stack for stronger opportunities. The pot isn't large enough to justify calling with a marginal hand.
