You need to take the test 25 times to get a reasonably accurate estimate. I scored ~75%.

8/10 then I got bored and my efficiency would easily drop because of lack of focus

Some days it feels like I've been standing forever, waiting for the bank teller to return so I can cash in all these Sklansky Bucks.

online poker players, especially those that multi-table, should be off the charts percentage wise at this game

25 times 92%
was 15/15 at one point.
--This is an excellent tool for demonstrating variance to our noobs.
I just did a test of 30 times pushing "Blue" and see that I'm only 33% on a coinflip. STUPID FCKING VARIANCE

The older I get, the more I start wondering; Just what in the hell is going on here?

I have no interest in discussing strategy with a protege'. Your job is to remain quiet and listen. I have a very systematic approach that I will share with the right candidate and I promise that I will turn you into a force of nature and show you elements of the game of poker that you never knew existed.
