I'm actually intrigued by the redline course and am considering doing that first. It's pretty short, but it has a section on overbetting (something the red line winners I know do a LOT of) and a deep dive into the BxB line which I have really high hopes for. There's another section on check raising as well. I'll probably save it for the end, but I'm not gonna lie that section has me much more intrigued than the main Exploits course.
I also bought the course. I don't like the pre-flop charts much at all. They do weird things like choosing 6 BBs as the 3-betting size against a 2.5x and 7 BBs against a 3x. Facing an in position raise from the SB, it goes 9.5 BBs against 2.5x which seems slightly weird. From the BB, it does go 10 BBs which is more in line with what I am used to seeing from top players. It is entirely possible that these sizings are actually good for reasons that are beyond me. Maybe it will be explained more in the pre-flop section of the course. But I worry that Uri had nothing to do with these sizings, and that these charts were just randomly thrown into the package by someone else. It will still be nice for cleaning up my BB defense against 2x and 3x though. I see these sizings a ton in my Zone games.
I have already finished the Red line course. It was quite a bit different than I expected. I thought it was going to be a lot of "lulz regs usually do so-and-so and here is how you wreck their mistakes". Instead, it is a lot of PIO work with some node-locking and a lot of conceptual prose. It has a lot more to do with why we overbet, and why we choose certain sizes in the bet-check-bet game. But after watching it, I do feel like I have a much better understanding of when and how to attack people with overbets. It's good, but I am not sure if it is $250-300 good which I think was its original price. I will need to rewatch it and get a few weeks of practice in before I can say for sure.
This morningt, I plan to work on the check-raise course.
As of right now, it is way too early for me to say whether the course is worth 1k. I haven't even started the main course... just doing the "Red Line Rocketship" course so far.
