CORE 2.0 Is Here! Got Any Feedback?

Hello Everyone:
I'll keep this brief since we're all racing around checking things at the moment, but we are excited to announce that CORE 2.0 is being rolled out today.
A full description of new content, features, and philosophy will be posted either here or as an article. I'll update this thread when it's dropped.
We would really like to know what you think of the changes to help us fine-tune the product going forward. Specifically, we've reorganized L3, added an L4 and redesigned your CORE dashboard. We will also be adding a direct feedback sidebar to improve communication between subscribers and content creators.
And for those of you who wanted to see solutions to the L1/2 quiz questions. They're all there.
So what do you think? Please let us know here, or feel free to DM me.
Thanks ~ Kat

The default is, if you rejoin your previous progress is recorded, although it might not be 100% perfect given the extent to the changes to some lessons. If you'd like your progress completely purged, I assume that's possible - I'd have to poke around. Feel free to DM me, we can work out how to proceed.
If you're confident you absorbed the material, I don't think any lessons have been so altered that I'd recommend looking at them again. I think the big change you may find useful is that all the exams now have model solutions, plus I dropped in a few exercises/missions related to the questions.
Yup, the raise-first-in ranges are available and full ranges facing any action will be out shortly.
Sounds doable, noted.
I wasn't actually aware there was a difference between desktop and mobile in that functionality. I'll look into it, thx.
I was able to change the speed on a video today, so I don't know if you fixed it or if it was only a problem with some of the videos.
Neither do I. I'll let the tech people know.

Oh that's more than likely. I think one of the themes in going from L1/2 (in which everything was broken into pieces) to L3, is that it emphasizes that multiple poker concepts are, by necessity, incorporated into most real hands. As a result, some of those concepts appear multiple times in L3.
There were a handful of minor video edits in L1 and L2, but the bigger changes involved the addition of the new videos such as the MTT course, a rewriting of many of the lessons to clarify what subscribers found confusing in the first iteration, and the written solutions to all the quiz questions.
If I've overlooked it, could you kindly point me in the right direction. Otherwise, might be a good addition into core
Honestly I'd recommend sitting down with a pad and paper and trying it yourself. I have a specific reason for this suggestion. What I've found with these heuristics that people use for bet sizing and estimating implied odds and similar, is that only 1 in 5 people understand any given method.
So start with the SPR. For each SPR there are various ways of sizing 3 streets of bets that leave the river a natural jam. Although, even that statement is a bit fuzzy. Is full pot on the end "natural"? Should it be half pot.
There is an algebraic expression for doing this, which you can likely derive, but understand too that there are other factors for choosing a particular bet size beyond simply figuring out the 3-street all-in line.
That said, the pot geometry discussion in this video will help:
Well done. Only done Level 1 so far but so far it's been perfect
Great to hear, thanks.
Currently there is the lvl3 Tournament hands and the lvl4 Tournaments.
I would 1000% swap those around in the order. Currently the lvl4 explains everything in tournaments like opponent reading, stackdepths, handselection and pressure.
The lvl3 tournament hands throws you in the deep and goes into solvers (that come out of nowhere), GTO spots (for different stacksizes) and more 'advanced' examples.
The lvl3 tournament just really threw me off the CORE for a bit, thinking I must have missed a few courses somewhere. It was suddenly a huge jump up, working with solvers that I have never heard about before.
Then I got to lvl4 tournament, and it was the actual basics of all things tournament related that I was hoping to get in lvl3. I would very much like to see these swapped around. As one explains the foundation and the other expands on that for advanced (lvl4?) players.
I've recently moved up while mostly just using the main points from the course for 1/2, play tight, don't pay off big bets, and 3 bet more. And want the other stuff like pot odds, ranges and equities to just become second nature so I can focus more effort on opponents ranges. Global poker has a very short time allowed and I need to be able to come up with these things instantly instead of using my time bank.
Anyway just think it would be very helpful to have a checklist, start basic and then move to more advanced topics. I am going to try and come up with my own and post it to see if anything could be added.
This is just a rough draft probably missing a number of topics and the order could use a little adjusting, but I think this is a good start.
