Hello fellow strategists!

As we are approaching the final test, we have to make our way past the Platinum status.

Now that we know how to deal with stats, it's time to add some more spice to our game and become more aggressive - what better way to do this than using advanced plays like squeezes, floats and lighter 3-bet?

Did you grasp these concepts yet and can you make the right move?

If you have to make it through the previous content first, take a look at the other quizzes of this series:

You have achieved a total 21 of 28 possible points. This corresponds to 75 %!

I made it. So I must be platinum material? right? Actually I was just going on instinct, and it was a very tough quiz (i've been aching to read those articles). Some of my wrong answers were because of SSS - not quite the same. But a lot of it is intuitive.

Hell yeah! Time to go to nl200 and win money without showdown because I can't win at showdown :tongue:

My mistake was that I checked behind the turn with 12 outs instead of bet/folding it. I guess it's right that we have to bet for balance, but.. well. I don't think checking behind is a mistake big enough to lose 2 points on! :tongue: Well I'm satisfied anyway (and surprised actually)

i think folding 87s preflop in Q2 is extremely bad. it's just out of the question for me. does anyone agree?

Nah, I think calling there is kinda bad because you'll mostly hit a draw and have to play it oop, so when you do hit you won't get much value from it often anyway and you can't bluff people easily in a multiway pot either, so it's basically hit or miss and when you hit you don't get enough value to justify it often. Sweet squeeze spot though :)


22 without knowing what a squeeze or a float is!

26/28

Dropped 2 on Q4 by calling IP instead of firing a light 3bet out. Fair enough.
