Correct Answers:

1)Their value increases: As stacks deepen, hands such as suited connectors and low to medium pocket pairs can be played more frequently due to their increased potential for implied odds.
2) KQ-suited: In general, it is advisable to fold A8-suited, AJ-offsuit, and 98-suited when facing a 3-bet from these positions at 100 big blinds.
