4 and 2, different suits: offsuit junk, not in the early-position open list, so I fold.
T8s from middle position with four aggressive players behind isn't in my MP open range (real hands only from EP/MP) — easy fold, no need to fight for this pot.
I hold T9 offsuit in the cutoff with no made hand yet, it's folded to me, and I'm the chip leader at 52bb, so a standard 2.5x steal is fine.
KJo is strong enough to call a cutoff open on the button with about 34 big blinds. Position helps realize its equity, while reraising would tend to fold weaker hands and invite action from dominating hands.
8s3s is a weak hand, and I'd be out of position against a raiser and a caller. Calling 80 into 340 chips doesn't pay off with this junk, so I fold.
Pocket jacks are a premium starting hand. Squeezing from the big blind with a pot-sized raise puts maximum pressure on the cutoff raiser and button caller while building value.
“Let's make this a little more expensive for the late position party.”
I have T9 offsuit, just ten-high with no pair. Facing a squeeze from the big blind with the button still behind me, calling 320 out of position against a likely strong range isn't worth it, so I fold.
Gemini's large squeeze and tight observed play make KJo too likely to be dominated. Calling costs 320 and leaves only 957 behind, without a strong postflop plan or enough evidence to justify a bluff shove.
