I obv am not writing my bachelor thesis on the impact of financial crisis on fannie mae... I did the donkey test cause I found it and was bored.

It tilted me so much when I saw the answers :

Like this question :

You're in the BB. Blinds are $1/$2 and everyone at the table has $50,000 in front of them. It is folded to the button, who raises to $7 but accidentally turns over his cards in the process.

You see that he holds:

He knows that you saw his hole cards. He did not see your hand. What range of hands should you call with? Which hands should you re-raise with?

Fold all hands.
Call with any two cards, and re-raise with KK, QQ, and JJ.
Call with any pair or suited connector.
Call with any two cards, do not re-raise with anything.
Call with any two cards, and re-raise only with KK.
Call with any two cards, and re-raise only with AA.

The last answer is supposed to be correct which I find totally retarded. I'd just flat (alto it's not mentioned what SB did, obv. he would have called but I assume he folded cause he's not in the scenario .wtf???)

I'd just flat, probably C/R flop, put the guy AI at some point with AA and let him sweat and fold in the end being xxxxx BB deep.

Also this:

5/10 NL cash game. $1,000 stacks. 6 handed. You raise from UTG with:

The big blind calls. He is a loose-aggressive player but has been check-folding to your flop bets during the last few rotations. Flop is:

Is this a good flop for you? What should you do?

Good flop, bet
Bad flop, check
Good flop, check
Bad flop, bet

HMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM.......... Well... it's not the best flop in the world, it isn't bad too. But it's rather bad than good. Now the thing is that the player is "loose-aggressive player" and for some particular reason he's c/folded to my flop bets (so is he LAG or not ?)

My logic is that he is gonna finally c/r... beacuse he's LAG, and beacuse the flop is good to do so. Nevertheless, betting is the correct move. AGAIN ?!?

So am I loose or tight ??? I guess I own everybody cause I just formed a style LAT - Loose aggressive tight ! The whole package !!! YAY

well it was posted on LP in some thread

I got 115. I received like 70 for computation speed cause I was taking 4 hours to do it so it might have had some impact

The highest score I got was on bluffing for 131, and really low for med/small pocket pairs like 80 ( I guess limping 77 in 6max NL@ 5/10 is better than raising )

well then, im extremely curious who could explain me why is that the correct answer. If we raise he'll just jam with the best hand and we got a tie.

What are the "right" answers? I'd probably choose

Call with any 2 cards, do not re-raise with anything
and
Bad flop, bet

but I'm a pretty bad poker player.
