I also think this test can be skewed because it doesnt not require a thought process behind answers.

A very bad player can choose fold simply because he's scared money , while a very good player can choose fold because of the range of hands that act this way and a read on opponents play and the strength of hands etc etc. They might both pick the same answer but for very different reasons. Similarly a very bad player can call because he is a station while a very good player can call because of the range of hands he puts his opponent one based on his actions throughout the hands and the % that he beats etc.

Because of this , this may skew your score in one direction (either up or down). Im also curious as to who wrote this test and if there is a "correct" answer for each situation (i.e if its played out 1 million times whats the right play) and if so how they know this...

While I think this test is a solid one, I think one has to keep this into consideration

This is not by any means meant as a shot at anyones score (my own included) high or low by the way
