Hello fellow strategists!

The third and final part of our Fixed Limit series will try and put your Platinum article knowledge to the test.

How do you play out of position and without initiative? On the flop? On the turn? Against different opponent types?

If you think you know how to navigate these tricky spots and how to correctly assess your equity, prove yourself in this week's quiz:

The previous parts of the series can be found here:

Good quiz apart from the second to last question, what is the "game theoretical optimal" (mathematics of poker)

Yeah....what?

It's quite known actually...but I didn't create the questions .


Wow hard quiz. I had to use equilator. I'm not good enough to guess the equity by the ranges yet. ;)

Question 4:

Either his final range is weird or wrong. Why does he bet QTs but not QTo and why QJo and not QJs? I think all 4 have to be checked behind.

Question 6:

Well see yourself "Du hast ein Openraise mit T9 von der MP3-Position gemacht. Der CO hat dich mit folgender Range ge-3-bettet: 66+, A8s+, KJs+, QJs, ATo+, KQo".

"You gave...." better "You have...." :)

Question 7:

"IMPORTANT: Check behind shouldn't be your default line in this spot - it should merely be part of your repertoire and you should only use it from time to time."

Nice so we give the default answer 0 point. Come on at least one point for going with the standard line but not seeing the "exploit". ;)

Question 10:

Interesting result but I don't like it. We often miss a valuebet against weaker aces. Why should be bet a weaker ace himself? He will split with any ace anyway and I don't think that he is able to fold AQ or AK nor play it that passive. Which other waker made hand could we call with?

Thanks for the quiz. I tmade me think a bit about these important and nice strategy articles again. :)
