So I scored really shitty on the test 91(worse than last time I took it 18 months ago which was 99).
Anyone care to explain some of the answers more in depth?
Here are the answers I picked:

1a
2b
3b
4a
5a
6c
7a
8a
9e
10c

30a
31a
32a
33a
34b
35b
36b
37b
38c
39b
40c
41b

43b
44b
45c
46d
47e
48c
49b
50b
51b
52d
PS- This test was really long and like 30% of the answers I was really unsure between 2 choices because I don't play these limits or cash games. For example, the first question. I knew 72o is the worst hand in a ring game and heads up low cards are worse (32o). But I chose A just because I probably wouldn't play either hand and basically flipped a coin to choose because they are equally shitty.
Other questions are just insanely hard situations that I would never be in and have no clue how to play. I'm more of a Tight Aggressive player. For much of these I chose the most conservative answer (fold).

I remember taking this back when I was playing NL5 and scored something like 118 /brag.
The answer to the worst hand is 32o because I think it specified heads up where the high card 7 could actually be significant, and mathematically it just is the worst hand vs all combinations of hands.
A lot of these questions are just based off calculating solid ranges with the description of the players provided. If you just answer like a nit you'll probably end up scoring higher. |

I think the test is very reliable. I scored a 122 or 123 when I was at NL25. People I know that suck at poker can't break 100 (on their first try). Like edz said if you answer like a nit you'll score much higher....and go figure I am a nit. |

If i remember correctly, Daut scored the max test. Could it be possible to have his insights ?
If not then i've nothing to do but pay this test and not be sure about gaining confidence at all either... Putin de merde. |

Daut's score is on the front page of the site and it's not a perfect score (real close though).
From what I remember of the questions, if you've played with PokerStove a lot and can create good ranges of the villain based on the descriptions, then the test is really easy. |

Your Tournament Play score of 143 is exceptionally higher than your average score. This score is better than 99.79% of all persons taking this test.
Lol pretty lucky. |

IIRC daut know all the answers but lp went onto a discussion about the allin bubble hand (in the 40ish question) and there was some controversia (spelling?) so that's why he didn't do the perfect score.
But that'd be useless to have the answers in lp since it's related to the site. But you can search the old topics that are discussing a lot about the hands.
Sorry for not being helpfull at all but i'm myself in the same situation as you. I guess when i'll be playing nl10 i'll definitely get the answers in order to improve. Afterall that's only 1 bi right ?  |
