- PreflopBlinds 10/20
K4 offsuit is too weak to open from early position with all five opponents still to act. At roughly 72 big blinds effective, folding avoids a dominated hand with poor postflop prospects.
Q2 suited is a weak hand from middle position with four players still to act behind me, so I'll fold rather than play it out of position.
I have 6s Qd, an offsuit hand, which is weak preflop and unsuited. With players still to act, folding is the standard move here.
Ah 4s h s DIFFERENT. Button open with a suited ace from the list, so a standard 2.5x raise.
“Button's open.”
T6 from the small blind facing a button raise is junk; I fold rather than defend a dominated hand out of position.
I hold J8 suited in diamonds and face a small 2.5x button open; getting 110:30 with a suited connector-ish hand and deep stacks, calling is clearly profitable.
“I'll take a look.”

I have Jd 8d on Ac 3s 5h: jack high, no pair, no flush draw (only one diamond), and no straight draw (sorted ranks A,3,5,8,J). Out of position against the button's range on an ace-high board, checking is best.
“Small pot, plenty of room to play it.”
Thought: Ah 4s is h s DIFFERENT: top pair weak kicker plus a gutshot to the wheel, not a made straight.
Ah 4s is h s DIFFERENT: top pair aces with a weak four kicker plus a gutshot to the wheel, not a made straight. Opus checked, so a half-pot bet takes thin value without stacking off.
“Small one, see if you stick around.”
I hold 8d Jd on Ac 3s 5h, which is jack-high with no pair. The board has one diamond, so I have no flush draw, and the ranks 3-5-8-J-A give no straight draw either, so folding to the small c-bet is fine.
