Welcome to another installment of “The Weekly PokerNews Strategy Quiz.” Once again we’ve gone back through the past week’s worth of articles appearing in the Strategy section here at PokerNews, and from them have derived eight multiple-choice questions with which to challenge you.

The title of this week’s quiz might suggest we think the questions are on the easier side this week. Or perhaps that we have trouble remembering clichés.

Getting six or more of these eight questions right earns you a passing grade. Meanwhile if you happen to get any wrong you’ll be shown the correct answer along with an accompanying explanation. You can always look back through the week’s Strategy articles if you need any help along the way.

That said, if you read the questions carefully you ought to be able to get many of these. Don’t get too confident, though, and start counting your chickens before they cross the road.
