Hamlet escaped Claudius's trap by cleverly altering the contents of the letters that were to be sent to England, which originally ordered Hamlet's execution.

How has Polonius' remark in Act 1 that hamlets words of love to ophelia were only springs to catch woodcocks become central to the action of the play?
"Springes" (not springs) are traps. Hamlet is all about people trying to trap other people. First we have Claudius and Polonius trying to trap Hamlet into making some admission about the cause of his apparent lunacy. The bait they use in these traps is Rosencrantz and Guildenstern, then Ophelia, and finally Gertrude. Meanwhile Hamlet sets a trap "The Mousetrap" to get a confession of guilt out of Claudius and it works. By the end of act three, Hamlet and Claudius no longer need to set traps for information. Claudius sends Hamlet to England to collect Danegeld, but it is really a trap to kill Hamlet. Hamlet is not caught, but Rosencrantz and Guildenstern are "hoist with their own petard" and die. Claudius and Laertes set new traps for Hamlet, but these end up killing Laertes and Gertrude and exposing Claudius, enabling Hamlet to kill him without opposition from whoever is left alive at that point.
