Hold'em table

Ten-nine offsuit is marginal, but on the button 3-handed I can take the initiative with a small raise and play postflop in position; folding is too tight at these blinds.

KQs is a premium holding 3-handed. 3-betting from the small blind builds the pot and exerts pressure on the button opener.

J♥3♠ is too weak to continue against a button open and a substantial re-raise; the call price is not worth it.

Ten-five offsuit is far too weak to call a 3-bet for 700 more; folding and preserving the 300 already invested is clearly best.

75o is too weak to open from the button, even in 3-handed play.

7♣6♣ is a playable suited connector heads-up, and completing the small blind keeps the pot small while I’ll be out of position postflop.

K4s is a decent suited king; I'll raise the limper from the big blind to build a pot with position on them and take initiative, folding out junk while keeping the raise modest.

Calling gets a reasonable price with a suited, connected hand that can make strong draws, though reraising out of position would be unnecessarily risky.

I have some showdown value with two pair, but the paired board favors the preflop raiser’s range and a bet is unlikely to get called by many worse hands. I’ll keep the pot small and see the turn.

I raised preflop and the caller checked the paired flop, so a continuation bet of 300 into 600 is standard pressure; my K-high plus spade backdoor can improve, and I can fold to resistance cheaply.

Bottom pair with a weak kicker has little equity against a value-heavy bet, and the price is not attractive enough to continue hoping for improvement.

On the button three-handed, Q3 offsuit is playable as an open; the minimum raise pressures the blinds while keeping the risk modest.

Seven-two offsuit is the worst starting hand, and I'm out of position facing a raise with two players still in. Folding loses only the 50-chip blind, which is far cheaper than playing a dominated hand.

J6o has weak playability and negative expected value out of position against a button raise.

J5 offsuit is a weak hand even from the button in 3-handed play; folding preserves chips for better spots.

QJs is a premium hand in a blind-vs-blind battle, making a standard 3bb open raise the optimal play.

T9 offsuit is a reasonable big-blind defend heads-up, and the 200-chip call offers favorable pot odds.

I flopped top two pair on a coordinated board, so I am betting for value and protection against straight draws.

I have an open-ended straight draw with eight outs, and the price is reasonable against the flop bet. Calling keeps weaker hands and bluffs in the pot without inflating it.

I have top two pair (Queens and Jacks) and should continue betting for value and protection against gutshots, straight draws, and newly opened flush draws.

I have only an eight-out straight draw and the call price is too high for its immediate odds. The paired board also makes the draw less reliable and limits implied value when it hits.

Holding 86 offsuit on the button is too weak to open raise profitably even in a 3-handed game, so folding is the standard play.

KTo is strong heads-up against the big blind, so I’ll raise for value and initiative rather than just complete.

Nine-three offsuit is far too weak to call a 3x raise out of position; folding preserves chips for better spots.

Ace-king offsuit is a very strong three-handed button hand; raise for value and to take the initiative.

6h7c offsuit is too weak to call a 3x button raise out of position, and 3-betting this hand multiway risks bloating the pot with a marginal holding.

Facing a 3x open from the button, Q9o does not realize enough equity out of position to profitably defend.
