Estimation Questions – 400+ Questions to Estimate, Bet & Bluff

QuizPoker uses estimation questions as the game foundation: Nobody knows the exact answer – and that's what makes it exciting. Estimate, bet, bluff!

What Are Estimation Questions?

Estimation questions are questions where the answer is a number – but nobody knows the exact answer. The goal: get as close as possible to the correct answer.

Unlike classic quiz questions, there's no 'right or wrong'. Every answer counts – and whoever is closest wins.

In QuizPoker, estimation questions are combined with poker mechanics: you estimate, bet chips and bluff – like at a real poker table.

Example Estimation Questions

Here are some typical estimation questions from the app. Each question comes with two hints revealed during betting rounds.

  • When did humanity cross the 1 billion population mark?

    • Hint 1: In the same year, the "Code civil", the French civil code, was introduced – it had a major influence on legal texts worldwide.
    • Hint 2: Brad Pitt is almost exactly that tall in millimeters.

    Answer: 1804

  • In which year was the first email sent?

    • Hint 1: In this year, cigarette advertising on television was banned in the United States.
    • Hint 2: The Soviet Union launched Salyut 1, the first space station.

    Answer: 1971

  • What percentage of alcohol does "Snake Venom", the world's strongest beer, have?

    • Hint 1: The world's strongest gin has a higher alcohol content at 82.5%.
    • Hint 2: Snake Venom would have enough alcohol to qualify as vodka.

    Answer: 67.5%
