Blackjack 6-7-8 Software
Can somebody help me with choosing casino software?
Is Blackjack 6-7-8 Software good ? I need Basic strategies + variations depending on true count (Hi-lo), optimal betting, simulations, etc. Something that help me be ready for any casino and any rules.
For casino conditions is better Trackjack or Current BJ News ?
Thank you.

Good Software
Blackjack Statistical Analyzer.
In my opinion the best software out there. Easy to use, and extremely fast.
Industry standard and the most popular is Casino Verite CVCX, CVData, CVShuffle.

This is what you REALLY need -
You don't really need all that sim-power, this is what you REALLY need - drilling + risk navigation. zg

Philosophy
A few words on practice philosophy. Computer practice consists of drills and playing the game. I strongly believe that drills are an important part of any training regimen. In the latest update, Casino Verite contains 37 drills with dozens of options. However, there is a problem with drills. They become incredibly tedious after a short while. That is the reason that I change the look and feel of CVdrills now and again. It’s also why I added Internet drills to add a bit of competition and allow comparison with others. Another problem is that drills generally allow you to practice only one or two skills at one time.
Games have the advantages of less tedium and practicing multiple skills at once. But, the problem with the games is that they present you with the same easy hands over an over. The games may be more fun; but 98% of your practice time is wasted.
My solution to this is to turn the game itself into a drill. CV V4 includes five different deck biases. Instead of using a random shuffle, you can be presented with rapidly increasing or decreasing counts, many card hands, a larger percentage of difficult hands and hands that you have had difficulty with. The software looks at your errors and increases the times that you will see the same situation. You can also set it to randomly switch between biases for a real workout. The idea is to allow you to play a game but to make better use of your practice time by making it much more difficult than random play. The game itself becomes the most difficult drill.

For card counting practice you recommend those over Casino Verite? This is the first I've heard of these trainers. I had planned on buying Verite until I saw this post.

Typical snake oil worthless crap, with a $60 price tag.
Oh, by the way, tell your friend that it's 'chauffeur', not 'chaufferer', and 'theoretical', not 'theoritical'.
