Hold'em table

Calling 100 with Ace-high and backdoor flush potential is reasonable; I'll see a flop and play positionally from the button.

A9 offsuit is a reasonable value hand from the SB; raising to isolate and build the pot while limiter has shown weakness.

Calling 250 with Ace-high on the button is reasonable to see a flop heads-up against a min-raise, keeping the pot manageable.

Paired low board favors the preflop raiser; a half-pot c-bet with ace-high and backdoor equity applies pressure to a likely missed hand.

The board is paired with 5s and I hold an Ace kicker; calling keeps me in the hand cheaply while avoiding overcommitting with a marginal hand against a continuation bet.

I have only ace-high with no pair or realistic draw, and my opponent has called two streets already, so I'll check and avoid further bluffing into a likely made hand.

Board is paired with 5s and a Ten, giving me a Ten-high with Ace kicker. I have no made hand and limited backdoor potential, so checking is the safest play to control pot size and avoid bluffing into a likely stronger holding.

I only have ace-high with no pair and no draw; betting risks chips for no value, so I check and hope to win a cheap showdown.

Board is paired with 5s and I hold only Ace-high with no pair; checking is the safest play to avoid bluffing into a stronger hand.

Weak offsuit hand (3d Th) with poor connectivity; not worth calling from the button facing action, better to fold and wait for a stronger spot.

Button folded, so this is heads-up versus the big blind. A7 suited is strong enough to raise for value and fold equity rather than just complete.

Calling 200 with 4s8s is reasonable given the short-handed pot odds and the chance to see a flop, but I'm not confident enough to raise with just two suited connectors out of position.

As the preflop raiser out of position, a small one-third-pot c-bet on this dry 6-9-5 flop pressures the many big-card hands in the big blind's calling range that missed, while risking little with ace-high and only a backdoor spade draw.

I have a gutshot straight draw and a backdoor flush draw, giving me decent equity to see the turn. Calling keeps the pot manageable and avoids overcommitting with a speculative hand.

Ace-high with only a gutshot has little showdown value, but checking is free and avoids bloating the pot against a caller who already continued on the flop.

Board is disconnected and I have only a backdoor flush draw with 4s8s; checking keeps the pot small and avoids building a big bet with marginal equity.

Ace-high missed the board completely, but it still has some showdown value and seat 1 has called the flop and signaled they want to check it down. Checking is better than bluffing into a likely showdown hand or folding for free.

My 4s-8s missed the board entirely, and the opponent checked turn, so I have no reason to build a big river pot with a weak hand. Checking keeps the pot small and avoids bluffing into a likely stronger range.

Pocket queens on the button is a premium hand, so I open to 3x the big blind to build the pot and take control preflop.

4s2s is too weak to call a 250 chip raise from the button with only 450 in the pot; the pot odds don't justify chasing a flush or backdoor draws out of position.

48o is weak, facing a 3bb raise with a call needed; not worth defending big blind with such a poor hand.

9s5c is weak offsuit and I'm out of position on the button facing a 100bb open; folding avoids a costly bluff with no equity or initiative.

96o is a weak hand and not worth continuing even from the button in a 3-handed pot facing action from both blinds.

63o is too weak to complete out of position against the big blind, so folding the extra 50 is the lower-variance play.

Pocket sixes are ahead of most button opening ranges three-handed, so I raise to 300 to build the pot and take the initiative rather than flat the big blind.

With 2d 9h I have almost no play against a 300 raise from the button; folding avoids losing more chips on a weak hand.

J5 offsuit facing a 3x raise on the button with a fold already in front; not worth calling out of position with weak equity.
