Twelve real Texas Hold’em spots, easy to hard. You make the call; after each hand you see the best play and what your choice cost. At the end you land on the bell curve.
Twelve No-Limit Hold’em decisions from 6-max games — preflop shoves, draws, river bets and big calls — two for each of six skills. Harder hands count more.
Each of the 12 decisions is graded by how many chips it gives up compared with the best option, as a share of the pot: best, acceptable, inaccuracy, mistake or blunder. Harder hands count more. The weighted score is placed on a bell curve with an average of 100 and a spread of 15, like an IQ scale.
Every hand states its opponent: a range of hands, and which bets that range calls. The expected value of each option is computed from that range with a hand evaluator, in chip EV measured in big blinds. Open “How this hand is scored” after any hand to see the exact assumptions.
Not yet. The curve starts from a calibrated estimate — random clicking lands near 80, a perfect run near 140 — and will be re-fitted as real results come in. The Poker IQ is a fun benchmark, not a certificate.
