Curriculum map
A transition-first path for mixed-game players.
Rotation games are difficult because the right instinct in one variant becomes a leak in the next. The path below teaches one reset phrase, one quiz, and one follow-up resource for each game family.
- Phase 1
Weeks 1-2: Reset discipline. Build the habit of naming the current game, pot objective, betting structure, and first decision before every hand.
- Phase 2
Weeks 3-5: Family-specific decisions. Train the strategic reset for split-pot, stud, draw, and high-only fixed-limit rounds.
- Phase 3
Weeks 6-7: Transition pressure. Practice the first two hands after each game switch, where players most often carry over the wrong instinct.
- Phase 4
Week 8 and ongoing: Review loop. Use progression rates, quiz misses, and hand-review feedback to choose the next rotation block.
Game modules
Learn each game by its transition question.
Each module gives players the first reset to make when the rotation changes, then points to a resource that reinforces the exact game-specific habit.
Omaha Hi-Lo
Use exactly two hole cards, name nut high and nut low, then price whether you can scoop, split, or get quartered.
Follow-up resources
Razz
Forget high-hand strength, read door cards first, and count how live your smooth low cards are.
Follow-up resources
Seven Card Stud
Track exposed ranks and suits before valuing pairs, overcards, straight draws, or flush draws.
Follow-up resources
Stud Eight
Combine live low cards with high-side pressure, then avoid one-way chases when boards brick or pair.
Follow-up resources
2-7 Triple Draw
Track draw counts, pat timing, position, and hand smoothness before trusting a made low.

Per-game quizzes
Check whether the reset is transferring.
These short quizzes target the mistakes players make when they carry one game's strategy into the next round.
Limit Hold'em
You just left a no-limit mindset and enter Limit Hold'em with top pair on a dry river. What should you check first?
Choose an answer to reveal the rotation note.
Rotation success starts by resetting to fixed-limit pricing. Thin value and pot odds matter more than stack leverage.Omaha Hi-Lo
After a Hold'em round, you see A-2 in Omaha Hi-Lo with no high backup. What is the safest rotation adjustment?
Choose an answer to reveal the rotation note.
A-2 is not a complete plan. The module requires scoop routes, counterfeit protection, and quarter-pot awareness.Razz
A player who just value bet top pair in Hold'em now raises a low door card in Razz. What information matters most?
Choose an answer to reveal the rotation note.
Razz reverses the target. Smoothness, live low cards, and exposed boards should drive the transition decision.Seven Card Stud
On fifth street in Stud, your pair has two visible outs dead. What should happen to your rotation plan?
Choose an answer to reveal the rotation note.
Stud decisions depend on visible-card accounting. Dead outs should change fifth-street calls and value plans.Stud Eight
Your low board bricks on fifth while a high board bets. What transition leak should you avoid?
Choose an answer to reveal the rotation note.
Stud Eight changes quickly as upcards appear. A strong start can become a one-way chase after visible bricks.2-7 Triple Draw
A tight player draws one, draws one, then pats and raises. What should frame your call with a rough eight?
Choose an answer to reveal the rotation note.
Draw rounds compress ranges through draw counts. Rough made lows lose value against credible pat-and-raise lines.Progression tracker
Mark modules complete only after the quiz and resource review.
The tracker keeps progression measurable, so user feedback can show where the curriculum is easy to follow and where the reset needs more support.

Follow-up resources
Use the right tool after each quiz.
A missed answer should produce a focused next action, not a vague reminder to study mixed games more.
Transition planner
Use the mixed-game transition tool after each module to write the first adjustment required by the next variant.

Players value the structure between games.
Testimonials emphasize the curriculum's main promise: easier transitions, clearer hand-review notes, and measurable progression through complex mixed-game strategy.
The biggest change was knowing exactly what to say to myself before the next game started. My notes stopped blending every variant together.
The quizzes exposed that I understood each game alone, but not the first hand after a switch. That became my warmup routine.
I finally had a way to measure progress besides results. The module checklists made hand review much easier to explain.
Acceptance signals
Measure progression and ease of understanding.
These signals map directly to the curriculum goals: successful user progression and positive feedback on understanding complex rotation strategy.
Track how many learners complete all six game modules and identify where the first repeated drop-off occurs.
Review which per-game quiz prompts learners miss, then add extra resources to the matching module.
Ask whether the reset language made complex strategy easier to understand after each phase.
Confirm that notes mention game-specific resets, not generic mixed-game confidence.
