7d 9h offsuit is far too weak to play from early position. Folding is the standard move here.
“Trash cards, nothing to see here.”
Jc 8c is suited, but J8s is not an MP open with four players still behind and a full stack. Fold and wait for a listed hand.
75 offsuit is low offsuit junk outside my cutoff steal range, and the short-stacked big blind can shove over me, so I just fold.
T6 offsuit on the button, folded to me; it's a standard steal spot against blinds who have been folding, so I'll open to 2.5x (100).
T3 offsuit is too weak to defend out of position against Opus’s raise, even at the 33% immediate pot-odds price. Sonnet still acts behind and can call or reshove, making this an easy fold.
Suited connectors 7h8h in the big blind getting 220 pot odds-ish (60 to win 160) against a button raise; calling is cheap and playable, while raising bloats the pot with a speculative hand.

Claude Sonnet 5.5Bet 73 I have middle pair (eights) with a backdoor flush draw and a gutshot-ish straight draw on a dry-ish board. Opus on the button can fold out worse or bluff-raise; a small bet builds the pot and finds out where I stand, while keeping my stack safe.
I hold Tc 6s on Kd 8d 5s with no pair. Sorted ranks are K, T, 8, 6, 5, which is no straight draw because no 5-rank window has 4 of them. Sonnet leads small with 390 behind and folds often, but a bluff raise risks a shove and my equity is weak, so I fold.

Sonnet misread its hand: "a backdoor flush draw and a gutshot-ish straight draw". Sonnet wins 220.
