Lab 2.0And the Max Exploit Academy videos are some of the most thought provoking videos I've seen in a long time.
These alone are worth the price of Lab 2.0.

Won $4.7 Million in WSOP Main Event (2nd)Without the concepts I learned from Upswing Poker, I doubt I would have made a deep run in the World Series of Poker Main Event. Upswing is great for players at any skill level. It is very easy to build your knowledge working your way up from the free hand charts to the advanced training course all in one place.
I think Upswing Poker is an absolute must if you are trying to improve. I think every product is extremely well-priced and worth it.

Lab 2.0 MemberHi! I'm a winning poker player (I play 2-5 live and microstakes on GGPoker, winning at both, but I want to improve my win rate).
I'm going through the Launchpad section of Lab 2.0, and this is honestly the best poker course I've seen so far.
Oh, and talking to Uri directly in the private Discord has been super valuable. He answered a specific question about my games, which alone made the investment worth it.

Lab 2.0 MemberI start with Uri because [it's definitely] the main reason I got Lab 2.0. When I watch videos of him even when he talks about things I already know the way he do it it sparks the light in me and I am very motivated to become better player and I enjoy poker. I really like to read everything he writes about on discord. The other coaches are very very good too.

Poker PlayerWhen we decided to rebuild Lab 2.0, there was one guy who came to mind as the coach who should lead it. That was Uri Peleg. He's taken this on as his passion project, and he's rebuilt everything under his vision with hand-selected coaches. I’ve been really happy with the Lab 2.0 feedback so far.
The hard work from Uri Peleg and the rest of the team really paid off.

Lab 2.0 MemberI have been an Upswing member for 2 months and I must say that the content is really valuable. The coaches are great and I also really like that the course is structured. It is definitely worth the money imo.

Mid Stakes Live PlayerDarren's explanation of player types and how to exploit such players at different parts (early, bubble, final table) of a tournament was digestible and genuinely fun to learn.
As a mid-stakes live player, sometimes I struggle bridging the gap between the theoretical and real world of poker, especially in tournaments. After studying Darren and Nick's approach, I feel much more confident at the tables.

Upswing Poker VPI've worked with a lot of talented poker coaches over the years in my time with Upswing Poker, but I was still absolutely blown away by Darren Elias.
His teaching style has something for everyone. Advanced players will constantly pick out nuggets of wisdom from his content that they can quickly add to their own game. Beginners will find his way of speaking easy to understand as he uses plain English to make his points.
I think any tournament poker player would be foolish to skip this course. You will enjoy watching it. You will get incredible value from it.

Tournament PlayerThis course is my favorite poker course I've ever taken to date. I've never been excited to study before, but Darren and Nick's style of teaching makes it so easy to learn and understand broad concepts that I can immediately take and implement into my game.
If you want to crush poker tournaments, and want a course that you're actually excited to study, this is the course for you
Casual Poker Player
This course is awesome! At first I was worried that the strategy would have you playing too "face up", but he breaks it down Barney style and by following his concepts you are nearly playing like the solver without having to actually open one and study it. Very interesting and I think it will make amateur/new players improve their skills a lot quicker than actually using solvers. I’m not gonna lie, I hate solvers, but these videos make it seem a lot less daunting.

This is the perfect course for me. I play 2/5 and 5/10 and am a winning player, but I don't have the time or desire to spend hundreds of hours studying Solvers.
This course condenses so many Solver concepts in a digestible and approachable way.
English Teacher & Poker Grinder
GTO took a lot of the excitement out of poker. Uri’s Poker Blueprint makes it fun again. His approach gives players freedom to be creative but includes just enough theory to keep them from getting out of line. Perfect for anyone who wants to play strong poker without having to master a solver first.
Poker Grinder
Would definitely recommend this kind of a course to a bunch of my friends who aren't that experienced and haven't really studied a lot. With such a simple and easy to follow presentation, this approach is easy to understand and remember. Also, Uri’s excellent audio quality makes every piece of content so much more enjoyable.
