Question 1

Button Pre-Flop Ranges

Answer 1

Pre-Flop Ranges:
1. Button:
- Opening Range: Wide range, including all pairs, suited connectors, suited aces, broadway hands, and strong offsuit hands.
- 3-Bet Range: 3-bet with premium hands (AA, KK, QQ, AK), strong suited aces, and some suited connectors for balance.

Question 2

Small Blind Opening Ranges

Answer 2

2. Small Blind:
   - Opening Range: Slightly tighter range than the button, including all pairs, suited connectors, suited aces, broadway hands, and strong offsuit hands.
   - Defending Range: Defend your blinds with hands that have good playability post-flop such as suited connectors, suited aces, small to medium pairs, and some suited one-gappers.

Question 3

Big Blind Opening Ranges

Answer 3

3. Big Blind:
   - Opening Range: Narrow range compared to the button and small blind. Focus on premium hands (AA, KK, QQ, AK), strong suited aces, and some suited connectors.
   - Defending Range: Similar to defending range in the small blind, defend with hands that have good post-flop potential.

Question 4

Post-Flop Ranges

Answer 4

Post-Flop Ranges:
- The ranges for post-flop play will depend on the specific board textures, stack sizes, and opponent tendencies. Generally, focus on playing strong made hands aggressively, semi-bluffing with draws, and adjusting your range based on the situation.
