Hold'em table

Calling 50 with 3d5d in position is reasonable; I want to see a flop cheaply and play the hand postflop rather than fold or raise with this weak suited hand.

With 5c3c in the big blind and no call required, checking is best; raising into a completed small blind with a weak hand risks unnecessary chips.

Checking with 3d5d on a 3s9dTh flop keeps the pot small and avoids building a big bet with a weak pair. I'll let the button's check stand and see how the big blind responds before committing more chips.

With bottom pair and no kicker, checking in position controls the pot and avoids getting raised off a marginal made hand.

Board is paired with Kd and contains a Ten, but my 3d5d has no obvious equity; checking keeps the pot small and avoids building a big bluff catcher against a possible King or Ten.

I have bottom pair with a weak kicker and the opponent has shown no aggression; checking controls the pot and gets to showdown cheaply.

I have a weak 3-high hand with backdoor flush draws, and the board contains a king and two diamonds that likely helped seat 3. Checking is the safest play to avoid building a bigger pot with a marginal holding.

My bottom pair has showdown value against a passive opponent who has checked every street; checking avoids risking chips when only better hands are likely to call a bet.

I hold 2h 6h, a very weak hand with no preflop value. The pot odds do not justify calling 100 into 150, so folding minimizes expected loss.

T9o has enough equity to call the small blind completion against a random big blind, and keeping the pot small out of position is preferable.

I have J3s in the big blind and can see a cheap flop with position relative to the limper, preserving my stack while taking a favorable pot odds spot.

I flopped top pair with a decent kicker and want to bet for value and protection against draws. Checking would let the big blind see a free turn.

J-high with only backdoor potential is too weak to continue against a flop bet, and calling would rely on hitting unlikely outs. Folding preserves chips for better spots.

Q8o is too weak to open from the button in a 3-handed game; folding avoids playing a dominated hand and risking chips with poor equity.

53o is too weak to continue out of position against the big blind, so I fold and save the extra 50 chips.

Calling the small blind's 50 with Ah8c keeps us in a multi-way pot at a low cost while preserving stack for better spots; folding is unnecessary and raising is too thin with just two overcards.

Q4o is too weak to raise a limper for value; checking keeps the pot small and we have position postflop.

I have a backdoor flush draw and gutshot with a weak pair, so I want to keep the pot small and control the action on this dry flop.

Small stab with a gutshot and overcard; the small blind showed weakness by checking, so this can take the pot or improve on later streets.

Calling keeps me in the hand with a backdoor flush draw and avoids building a big pot out of position on a paired-looking board.

Board is paired with a King and I have only Ace-high; checking keeps the pot small and avoids building a big bluff catcher against seat_3's turn stab.

My Q-high has little showdown value and no strong draw; checking controls the pot and lets me see a free river.

Board is paired Kings with a flush draw on board; my Ah8c is weak and likely behind. Checking lets me see a cheap showdown and avoid building a bigger pot with a marginal hand.

Q-high has some showdown value against missed draws, and betting risks getting called by better pairs or Kx. Checking controls the pot and realizes equity.

I have QTs on the button, a decent hand to see a flop. The pot odds are favorable and I want to keep the field tight.

Completing the small blind with 2s4s for only 50 more into a 250 pot; the hand is too weak to raise, but the pot odds justify a speculative call.

J6o is a weak hand and I have no need to build the pot out of position; checking keeps the pot small and lets me see the flop for free.

I have only bottom pair on a monotone heart flop and am first to act in a multiway pot. Checking keeps the pot small and avoids putting chips in against possible flushes.

Top pair on a wet board; betting to protect against heart draws and gather information while charging opponents.

I have a backdoor flush draw and a Ten kicker with a Qh. The pot odds justify calling the 200 to keep the hand alive without overcommitting to a speculative draw.

Closing the action for 200 into a 700 pot gives good odds, and my bottom pair has some showdown value against a single flop bet and call. Raising would risk too much with a weak hand on a monotone board.

I have only bottom pair on a three-heart board and both opponents called a flop bet; checking keeps the pot small and avoids getting raised.

The board has three hearts and two opponents called my flop bet, so a made flush is very likely. My top pair with a weak kicker is better kept cheap by checking and seeing the river.

The board is paired with a flush draw and I hold a Ten-high with backdoor flush potential. Checking keeps the pot small and avoids building a big pot with a marginal hand.

I have a weak two pair on a paired board with possible flushes and trips, and no one has shown strength since the turn. Checking preserves my showdown value and avoids bloating the pot against better hands.

Board is paired with a jack on the river and I only have queen-high with no flush draw; checking avoids building a big pot with a marginal hand.

K7o is a playable button hand in a 3-handed game, and raising applies pressure on the blinds to fold or call with weaker ranges.

Q3o is too weak to continue against a 3x button raise, especially out of position against a likely wider but still strong range. Folding saves the additional 250 chips with poor equity and reverse implied odds.

3c2c is a weak hand that cannot withstand a 300 raise from the button; folding preserves my 100bb stack for better spots.
