Short answer: Yes, there are many advanced sections and videos in the Lab.

Long answer: When the Lab was released in 2016, the focus was on helping beginner and intermediate poker players. However, the course has been getting progressively more advanced as new content is added every month.

If you're an advanced player, you will likely find the earliest section of the Lab to be too fundamental, but all you have to do is skip that section to find the super valuable content you're looking for.

Every week a new Play & Explain video is added to the course. New learning modules (which are essentially lessons) are released on a monthly basis.

The fundamental section of the Lab contains around 12 hours of content, which can easily be consumed in less than a month.

In total, the Lab contains 250+ hours of content, most of which is "optional" depending on the game type you play (e.g. you don't need to watch the Live Poker section if you play online).

As a member, you can cancel anytime and are in complete control of your Lab membership at all times. While we hope you stay forever, we hate contracts and would never impose them on our members.

You can cancel your account 24/7/365 days a year online through your “My Account” portal inside of UpswingPoker.com. Or you can email support at any time when you decide you’re ready to cancel your membership.

Before you do anything else, you need to join the Upswing members-only community and ask ONE burning poker question. Then, dive into the No Limit Simplified section and start learning a fundamentally sound strategy that wins.

If you're already an advanced player, skip to the game type sections to pick up cutting-edge tactics to add to your game.
