leave the hand up in the background when you show the stats at the end, please. especially in quick mode, the cards disappear too quickly to absorb what happened! otherwise, great job. love the strategy coach!
i noticed this is not a game for winning, however technique is the more important. The little number at the quit, which indicates the coach agree with you play is more important. WE ALWAY LOOK AT THE MONEY, AND NOT THE TECHNIQUE, THE USA WAY!!
Love your site. This is the best practice game I have played. I don’t understand why people are complaining about the accuracy of play. My games currently range from 57% to 37%. Dealers longest run 8, my longest run 10. Seems well within the bounds of reality. Would be nice to be able to play multiple hands and to be able to add a counter in the options section. My bankroll gets wiped out or doubled up in the ratio I would expect playing simple basic strategy. Thank you for this trainer.
I’m here in Vegas and BJ stinks now! I brought $5000 with me but if I don’t get 3-2 on BJ, I don’t play. I’ve been here for1/2 day and I am ready to go home. Greed has destroyed LV. I’m never coming back. I checked out about 12 casinos; it’s the same everywhere.
I suspect that you are a good bankroll manager and that is why you win. With standard deviation, there is a GREAT chance you will get of 5, 6, 7 units in a shoe or two. Quit and come back later. Bankroll mgmt is how most people “beat” the casino. It’s like selling high. If you have a 200 bankroll per session with basic unit of 5, 9 out of 10 times I will be up by this number of units at least once a session. That’s when you leave.
doesnt matter how many cards youve drawn lol….this game is a game of math and odds. you always hit a 16 against a 7-A unless youre card counting and thats a different story that i wont get into lol. your logic with the whole “this many cards drawn to 16” thing is hilarious.
Dealer had a 5 showing. Then turns over a 9. Then takes a 7. If the player hadn’t taken the 2, the dealer would have got the 2 and with a total of 16 have to hit again. The 7 would have busted the dealer in that case.
If they pay you back your double downs and splits when they draw a blackjack, you use standard basic strategy and deviations, as in doubling 11 against 10, splitting AA against A, splitting 8s against 10 and A, and doubling 11 against A at a true 1+ and doubling 10 against a 10 and A at a true 4+
Because the expected value of the money you have at the end is higher if you don’t. Now if you were playing competently i.e. counting cards and upgrading “basic strategy” to “advanced strategy”, there are times when you would do this. Namely if the truecount is more than 2, double an 8 against a 6, and if truecount exceeds 4, double an 8 against a 5. And if truecount passes 6 double 8 against a 4. But basic strategy says to do none of these things because basic strategy is the set of decisions you should make when count is 0 which is what it is on average if you are not counting cards.

Nah this is also what happens in the casino and is good practice
The average player is completely clueless about the rules, odds, and strategy. This has already taken over the strip.

Would it be possible to set the trainer so that we can play 2 hands aganst the dealer? I do this at casinos, and it makes it more fun!
Love the site! Been using it to prepare for Vegas trips for years.
It would be so much fun if we could play 2 hands at a time.

Thanks for the reply. What is the blackjack software you use to figure out things like that. Thanks

you split 9s against a 2-9 except for 7…..its basic strategy. the quiz is just fine. you just need some work
i got 20/20. this website is 100% correct

Because you’re supposed to hit.
Hi. Actually … this would work. It’s just your belief system that is holding you back not the numbers.
If they pay you back your double downs and splits when they draw a blackjack, you use standard basic strategy and deviations, as in doubling 11 against 10, splitting AA against A, splitting 8s against 10 and A, and doubling 11 against A at a true 1+ and doubling 10 against a 10 and A at a true 4+
After splitting, you would treat the two separate cards as a new hand.
