I got a 137, though that was over a year ago. I'll take it again tomorrow to see if I am still at the top of my game.

It is a great test to see how far along you are in your poker learning.

Take it and post your score!

Anyone with less than 100 post your sn and site please

Wauw that was the best poker test i've ever tried. I found it extremely challenging and very entertaining.

My results:
Your PokerIQ is: 142
Your Complete Poker Intelligence Profile has been generated and can be accessed immediately for only $9.95.

P.S What did you answer to #3 WD?

[Degen]

Yes it is a good test, developed by a professional high stakes player. I used to stake people into the Sunday Million on PokerStars and the first thing I had them do was take that test.

Nobody ever got a 142, that is a really good score! I would be amazed if anybody beats that without cheating.

I just looked at the test and number three is rough. I think I would choose to call because of the pot-odds, getting more than 1.5:1.

[MoneyMatt1]

you have to fold 1010 there... your odds are terrible here

[Buldermar]

I came to the conclusion that you have to call. Think about this: There are only 6 2-card combination giving you a PP while 12 2-card combinations gives you AK or AQ. Therefore, the amount of times you are dealt AK or AQ outweights the amount of times you are dealt AA KK QQ and JJ. I know you are dominated when you are up against a bigger pocketpair, but TT vs AQ or AK is not a coinflip at all. TT got, at least, 55%. This adds up, making a call the correct decision IMO.

And thanks for the compliment WD. I just looked through the questions a second time and i'm thinking 150 is probably the highest possible score. What do you think?

if u think this way then u are not playing the player at all... and you will never fold 99 1010 JJ or QQ pf

there is no way you can call with 1010 there you dont have good pot odds and you can get away from the hand without losing too much

I would call there with QQ but fold anything worse 1010 isnt a premium hand and is a must fold here imo

[Buldermar]

#51 was interresting too. I ended up just calling, but now that I think about it, pushing all-in is the right move. He isn't going to call with a flush, but IF he has a FH like you, only AA beats you while both 88 and 98 loses plus he is more likely to have 88 than AA due to the fact that you are holding an A.
The BR doesn't matter at all. The right decision cannot be determined by the size of your BR. If you BR starts to affect your play, you will end up being a losing player due to being too afraid of value betting etc.

[Buldermar]

I have foldet KK preflop a bunch of times, so I am capable of making big laydowns preflop.

I just did the math and I admit my answer was wrong. I was unable to do this piece of math in my head during the test :P
JJ, QQ, KK, AA is a total of 24 2-card combinations that have you crushed to 20% or so. AQ and AK is also a total of 24 2-card combinations that you are at least 55% favor to win against. You have to pay 1300 to win 2000. You need odds 13 to 20 which equals about 39,39% (lets call it 40%). You are winning 37,5% on avarage. You need like 2,5% more winning chances to call.

My apology MoneyMatt1

[Degen]

I'll try to get the creator of the test to come give us the answer to the TT problem as well as what the highest possible score is.

And MoneyMatt I consider great than 1.5:1 pretty good odds to justify a call. If we were getting to 2:1 we should be calling with a huge range...we should not be tightening up to QQ+ for 1.6:1 or whatever this is. If he had a full stack and shoved, maybe its a fold...but he only had 30x

[Mlubin]

ehh i got 116

[Buldermar]

We should fold TT based on the given info. (He only makes the move with AK, AQ, AA KK QQ and JJ) At least that's my conclusion based on the math.

[Buldermar]

116 isn't very far from 150 either..

[Mlubin]

Its pretty far but then again the test isnt based on my bread and butter games so i guess i shouldn't be to displeased.

[Buldermar]

The test is very math-based.

[Degen]

116 seems to be about average of the scores I have seen. It is an above average poker knowledge. That tells me people who take the test in the first place (or who don't give up) already have above average poker knowledge.

Where you see resistance is around the 130 level. Not a lot of people score in the 130's+

[K1-DK]

well i made 99, but i make up for it in suck-outs

;)

[Koit16]

I made 107, pretty good for my level.

[RidderRap]

I made 121.... still a lot of room for improvement ;)

[Slinky]

I started this when i was ill on tuesday and switched it off but now it wont let me access site :(

[mustardeggs]

Your PokerIQ is: 114

[Danielle Angel]

I am not posting mine :( I did it with kids running around and half cut, I think I will shame myself. I am under 100 thats all I will say :(

[Slinky]

i got in now and am taking the test..i will shame myself soon enough lol

[Slinky]

mines 97 :o

[Slinky]

The casino question..what did you guys answer? Is 5k enough to cover a 5/10NL cash game in a casino?

I've never played live let alone 5/10$ live lol Interesting to know the answer :D

[Danielle Angel]

I think $3000 is sufficient to cover 300BB @ $10, I think thats about the rate. Keep in mind something that was not mentioned though .....is this the whole bankrole ? If this 5k is all the person has then no it is not enough to cover. If he needs to cover it and have sufficient bankrole he would need I think approx .... $30k .... thats a think and a think btw :p

My score was 90's also :o I dont feel so bad now :) Hope you were not fibbing to get mine on here mate lmao :D.... regardless i will sit it again when I dont have 10 distractions :p

[driverx]

hm got 94 exact, I suppose I need to learn the math more :(

[Blobbi-San]

Got 99 - but was mayby too fast to answer some of them. And concerning the math, I have to improve :-)

The question as i read it was is someone who has a bankroll of 5000 properly bankrolled to play 5-10, unless my reading comprehension just sucks. I dont think the question was meant as if someone sits with 5k at 5-10 is this enough money.

[WK83]

aiyah 107. but i got 125 with big pairs, and 96 in tourneys i dislike tourneys. ill re do the test in a few months after studying then let ya know

[Degen]

133, I got 4 points dumber since the first time I took that test :eek:

[Mlubin]

I did almost the exact opposite my score went up by 5 points

That's not how I understood the question. 5k is more than enough for 5/10 imo. It doesn't say it's the whole bankroll. I don't think this question is a matter of bankroll management.

[mustardeggs]

it sure was a question of bankroll managment, pretty sure about this in my opinion

[Buldermar]

I don't remember what I answered. The question just seems to be pretty obvious if it's a matter of BRM - compared to the difficulty of many of the other questions.

The question was worded something along the lines of

Is 5000 dollars enough money to bankroll a player for a 5-10 nl cash game.

[mustardeggs]

yes I agree but still its much more ridicolous to ask if 5K is enough to play in a 5/10 game then to ask if its a proper bankroll ;)

[Buldermar]

True that. Hold on lemme check which of the answers is the correct.

[Buldermar]

Oh nvm.. you can only take the test once with one email adress.

[Degen]

that was clearly a BRM question. it was an absolute no. 5k is not enough to play 5/10.

many 5/10 games live are capped at 1k. surely they weren't asking if 5 buy-ins was enough for one session, its obv more than enough.

however it is a terribly small bankroll for those stakes. answer was: NO

[Buldermar]

I'm going to make a new email and take the test again at some point when I find time to do so. I find the test very challenging :P

[Froedo]

You dont need to make a new email. Just logging with your existing and take it againg :)

[Bodhi]
