Ok
I am going to mark everything very critically and go back to award more points for multi part questions.

This will take me almost an hour for those who have submitted already.

I have transferred your answers to a word doc, and will send you these back with the correct answers on them.

At 3.00pm I will post the correct answers and start a debate.


Noone has any comments on my post about tells and limbic brain functions?

I thought it was very informative or is it too indepth?

[Ondie J]

Well... you lost me at 'The reasoning...'

From there I just smiled and waved.

[bennymacca]

has anyone beaten my score yet?

does that mean chipset for me at 3pm if noone beats me?


nothing is too in-depth garth (i like complicated explanations for everything ) - it was a good explanation,

The limbic brain otherwise known as the "mammalian brain" is the primitive part of our brain that we share with animals

this stuff sounds a little bit like a "left brain right brain" type of simplification, but we'll run with it.

So in those second or microseconds between seeing your rockets catch another A on the door you subconciously give off a joyous reaction to your environment.

true - the hard part is to watch everyone on the table at the same time, and if you do notice something, to trust it.

the big problem is, if you flop a set and notice a tell about your opponent (like "happy feet"), does it mean "i have flopped 2 pair" or "i have flopped the straight"

I have to admit I am doing the DonkeyTest.com at the moment and it is doing my head in.

I tried doing the test by you Garth and I am to scared to submit my results so that I don't look like a total tosspot.. lol

But WOW... how much does doing all these types of tests really show just how much we beginners really don't know.

This really is awesome.

Great idea Garth!

I just finished the test on D0nkeyTest.com and scored 88.
I suspect that is bad... lol

Has anyone else done this test yet?

[Garth Kay]

I did quickly do it, did it in twenty minutes.

My overall IQ is 106, not the best, means I am a low stakes pro.

But for tournament play my IQ was 120 so it definitely means I love my tournaments more than cash games.

I will probably do it again properly tonigh.

And I would like to add that staff are allowed to enter this competition as well.

You should have put a foot note to this one Garth.
