I think this test may be pretty decent - So far, the scores posted in this thread don't surprise me... and please don't anyone take offence to that... Remember, 100 is average.
Also, I just noticed this LOL-testamonament on their site: |

OK, here is what the paid results look like. I'm not exactly sure what the numbers in the graph represent.. I think the "This score is better than xx.xx% of all persons taking this test" ones are much more important.
BTW - as you can see in the graph, I got penalized for my (lack of) speed. Even without distractions, I doubt I would have been above 50% of the other test takers though... For some reason, it's way easier for me to "see" poker than it is for me to "read" poker. I found myself having to reread quite a bit as I was going through the test. The only that that really surprises me in my results is my terrible Tournament score. I don't think there were enough tournament questions, to be honest, and I'm very surprised that I finished that poorly in that category. Meh. I can't say my suckiness with big pairs (better than exactly 50% of the other test takers) surprises me, honestly. Conversly, check this out: Anyway, here is the full text of my report, in case anyone else is considering purchasing theirs: |

Now that I have seen , I definitely would have liked to score in the 120s (and maybe I would have, if not for the distractions/interruptions that killed my time). I still think this test is pretty accurate though.
They have had 43,546 people (and counting) take the test so far, so the 100 mean score thing should most definitely be accurate. |

I think I push all-in too much.

I'll burst the bubble. score of 95.
Took me just about an hour as soon as I started I had to get my ass kicked at Candyland (I even cheated and my 3.5 year old still won) and feed my 1.5 year old. For pride sake I would like to take it again, but I guess that score would be biased so I will have to live with my low score. Alas, I suck. |

92, though in my defense I had to really rush the last third or so due to an upcoming meeting. But my low score does serve as an endorsement of the test. As predicted with that score, I am not beating 1/2 NL live cash games.
The analysis you get seemed pretty good, and I'll retry the test again when I have more time to see what impact that has.

![]() I can't tell you how many times I was a double red or better from the Candy Kingdom and then BAM! I draw Mr. Mint. My daughter's maniacal laugh makes it feel even worse!

Me and TP in the lead at 116 so far (till SJay or JD respond most likely -- eh who knows maybe not)
Out of curiousity (DONT READ IF YOU DIDNT TAKE THE TEST YET) What did everyone put for the 118k stack T5o in the BB to the 10k CO push? I folded, but Im thinking I maybe was supposed to call with any two there

I clicked call. Didn't even think much more about it.

I don't think we should talk about any more questions from the test (not for a few days anyway), as it would be impossible for people who haven't take it it to not apply when they read here.... but since the cat is out of the bag on this one already, I also clicked fold and I also believe that is incorrect. In my mind, this was VERY close and I almost went the other way with it. Fortunately for me, I'm not in this situation often.
