lol 96. wtf is reverse implied odds haha

hackmeplz · May 8, 2013

This was a decent test for its time, but now it's super-outdated. Bet sizings and amounts of limps are just so different then from today's games.

I am 97.Is that too bad?

Example of reverse implied odds: 6 max cash game 10nl. A TAG opens UTG for 3x, his stats are 16/13. You are on the BTN with KJo, you call. This is a bad call with bad reverse implied odds. If you hit a Jack or a King it's likely you are no good as UTG will have hands like AJ, AK, QK, AA, KK etc. Therefore your implied odds are reversed as you are likely to lose money to the dominating hands.

I tried good, but compared to being lucky, it was no contest!

bushy_lufc · May 22, 2013

i got 124 but i dont really play cash games and some of the examples are quite ridiculous!

kmbpoker · May 22, 2013

it is a test for online players i guess because i didnt see any questions that aske something like if you are the bb and have a raise and reraise preflop and you have ace king and are considering a raise or call and stage a big raise and quickly look up to check expressions and see the 1st raisers eyes bulging out of its sockets do you fold call or raise.

glenn6971 · May 22, 2013

I got a 105. No wonder I suck at poker LMAO.

Quiksilver · May 23, 2013

Ugggg 83. Time to read some books.

psychotie · May 23, 2013

beerobrian · May 23, 2013

Not only that, a score alone says NOTHING! You have to pay 9.95 to get the full monte. From who? Who are these people? Could be from someone who has never even played poker, frankly.

I'll go with my gut on this one and spend the 9.95 on 2 iphone poker training Apps. Money much better spent in my view.

WeenieSVK · Jun 20, 2013

I got 105. But yeah, only to get some number sucks.. I would like to see where I was wrong (better to say where creators of this test think that I was wrong)

But they wont see me paying for that 10 dollars

mhentrich · May 28, 2015

What?

What? I have an IQ of 170 and I scored 100 at this and have won multiple small stakes tourneys. It's just extrapolating from easy logic to hard logic, I can take the big games. Went broke in college from trying to go big.

Karozi615 · May 29, 2015

I got a 115 but I would strongly contest some of the questions. I felt like they were asking me to apply an outdated logic to my answer.

One question in particular, which involved two loose aggressive players battling in a CO vs BB scenario, when the BB 3bets from 40$ to 120$ in a 5/10 game with 100BB effective stacks

The flop is T 6 2

What would be the best hand to check/shove in this spot?

1. 88
2. AK
3. QJ

The answer is obviously either AK or QJ, end of story. But yet I felt that they wanted me to answer 88, even though that would be horrific.

Any rational 5/10 player in 2015 takes a check/call line with 88 or check/raises for value. A check/raise for more than pot is just suicidal because of the reverse implieds. If I was going to loose my mind and go crazy I might as well have two big cards that serve as blockers and give me about 14% resuck equity against an underpair.

Karozi615 · May 29, 2015

Or are the test creators super pros who expected me to shove with 88 in order to level my opponent into calling off with a nonpair hand? That isn't standard play at all though. This is why there are no tangible poker tests that can actually measure a players ability.

Which is part of the reason why this game is so much fun.

dj11 · May 29, 2015

I always do horrible on these things, then go win some more money,,,,,

edit;

I see this is an old thread, and I still have the lowest score, thus am still winning.......

Carl Trooper · May 29, 2015

2 year old thread, nice

pokeflee · May 29, 2015
