Hold'em table

Three-handed on the button, 9-7 offsuit is too strong to fold and plays best as an open-raise in position rather than limping.

Queens are a premium pair and the button's 2.5x open is a good spot to 3-bet for value and fold equity before the big blind acts.

7c Qc is a weak offsuit hand facing a raise and a big 3-bet to 900; not worth continuing in a multiway pot.

7-9 offsuit is too weak to continue against a 900 three-bet; calling 650 would require about 34% equity with poor playability despite position.

Q3 offsuit is too weak to limp or open from the button; folding avoids a dominated, poorly connected hand out of position postflop.

With button folded it's heads-up against BB; A6 suited is strong enough to raise for value and fold equity.

Q8o in the big blind heads-up against a small-blind 3x raise has enough equity and postflop position to defend for 200 more, but is not strong enough to reraise.

As preflop raiser on a dry, disconnected flop (8-2-J rainbow), a half-pot continuation bet pressures a likely missed BB while my Ace-high retains some equity if called.

With second pair and a queen kicker facing a half-pot flop bet heads-up, I have enough equity against the preflop raiser's bluffs and weaker pairs to call and evaluate the turn.

I have only ace-high with no draw on a dry board; checking is best, and I'll likely give up to further aggression.

In position with second pair and a queen kicker after the turn check, a small bet gets value from weaker pairs and draws while denying free equity to overcards and spade draws.

I have only ace-high with no pair, no draw (A6 offsuit on 8-2-J-7 rainbow-ish board), and facing a bet after check, folding is correct rather than bluff-catching with zero equity.

K2 offsuit on the button facing a raise-limp scenario isn't worth playing out of position post-flop after calling; fold for value preservation.

QTo is strong heads-up versus the big blind after the button folded; raising applies pressure and builds value instead of limping out of position.

Button folded, so this is blind versus blind. J9o has enough equity and pot odds against a small-blind raise to 3bb to continue rather than fold.

Top pair queens with a ten kicker on a dry K-Q-4 board is likely ahead of the big blind's calling range, so a half-pot bet gets value from weaker pairs and draws while defining his hand.

J9 offsuit is only a gutshot on Q-K-4 with no pair or flush draw, and 350 to call into 950 is too expensive against a preflop raiser who is continuing. Folding avoids paying off a likely stronger range.

Q2 offsuit is a very weak hand even on the button in 3-handed play; calling or raising risks more chips with poor equity and playability.

Button folded, so this is heads-up versus the big blind with ace-king. A raise to 300 builds the pot and takes the initiative rather than just completing.

AQo is strong enough to 3-bet from the big blind against a single-raiser, building the pot while applying pressure.

AK is ahead of a typical BB 3-bet range and plays well as a 4-bet. 2400 builds the pot while keeping fold equity and leaving room to continue if called.

Villain's 4-bet sizing suggests a range of QQ+/AK where my AQ offsuit lacks sufficient equity relative to the pot odds needed, so folding is the disciplined play.

Pocket sevens are ahead of a random button open range, so I raise to 3bb to build the pot and take the initiative before the blinds.

J2 offsuit facing a 3bb raise is not worth defending from the small blind.

K4 offsuit is a weak king with poor playability out of position against a button 3x open; despite pot odds, equity realization is too low to defend profitably.

Button open with a wide 3-handed range; K6o is playable as a steal given no prior raise and position advantage postflop.

K4 suited has enough equity against a wide 3-handed button raise, and calling 200 into a growing pot offers a good price despite being out of position.

5-3 offsuit has almost no equity against a button raise and a small-blind call, so calling 150 is a clear fold.

With Kh4h I have a heart flush draw and king high on a dry-ish flop; checking to the preflop raiser lets me realize equity and potentially check-raise rather than leading into his range.

I have no pair or draw, but as preflop aggressor I can c-bet a dry board against a single checker to represent strength and take it down now.

King-high with only a backdoor flush draw lacks the equity to call 350 into 950 against the preflop raiser's flop bet.
