Tournament. Blinds are 300-600 with a 75 ante. 9 handed.

SB is a well-known tourney pro and has 60,000 chips. A weak tight player UTG with 100,000 chips limps, and the SB completes. Big blind with 12,000 chips checks.

Flop: 8 icon_suit_spade.gif 6 icon_suit_spade.gif 3 icon_suit_club.gif


Blinds check to UTG, who bets 3,000. SB calls and the BB min check-raises to 6,000. UTG re-raises to 12,000. After long consideration, the SB calls and the big blind calls all-in.

Turn: K icon_suit_heart.gif


SB checks. UTG checks.

River: 3 icon_suit_spade.gif


SB bets 10,000 into the 40,000-chip pot. UTG quickly calls. What did all three players hold?

SB had AA, UTG had a flush draw, and BB held a set.
SB had a draw, BB had two pair on the flop, and UTG had AA.
SB had a set, BB had 99+, and UTG had a flush draw.
SB had two pair on the flop, BB had a draw, UTG had A8.

Got this from www.donkeytest.com which i still can't get higher than 109 on.

My brain felt dead trying to work this out so i clicked a random answer.

Are these the 4 options?

And we don't actually get the board cards?
Sheiky
Edited to include cards.

And yeh they're the 4 options.

Once you look close at SB, the answer should be clear.
waylander11

Also...take that thing with a grain of salt...the questions basically read like this:

You are in the BB with XX and blatantly misplay your hand preflop, on the flop and turn...

What should you do on the river?


The two times I took it I got a 116 and a 124.. and I got the 124 first so I guess I'm getting dumber??
throwemaway
I didnt read any responses

I think option 2: UTG has AA because weak tight idiots limp AA

Basically I did process of elimination with SB's holdings because hes suppposed to be good

He isn't limping AA from the SB IMO cuz that would be straight up retarded
He isn't c/c'ing a set or two pair on a draw heavy board

So.....Hes got a draw...Makes sense for BB to have two pair too

LOL at hand 51 being the rounder hand.

I scored 104, but that does not say if it is good or bad.

Many of the questions have been modified slightly since back then, but they are all pretty much the same in content, structure and answer.
Sheiky
Simo you scored more than Taylor Caby!!

I feel retarded for getting below 110.
E-Cart6
Scored 110.
Yahkin
Well, I hit 110 on the nose. I think the cash game questions hurt me. I don't do cash...I've tried and I suck at it.
E-Cart6
I prolly lost a lot points when sometimes i just didn't think u should lay things down.

For example the AQ hand on a AQT board. Sure it all hinted towards KJ, but him being so inexperienced he could've definately had a worse ace or QT/AT. I wouldn't lay that down especially with such a decent ammount in the pot already. I'd call and possibly be disgusted if i see KJ, but i'd call even though the correct answer was probably fold.

I scored 103, I was impressed with that.

109, and I did it in 15 minutes cause I have to go to work so I'm quite pleased with that.
