All perfect! It's been fun working on this with you. Don

OK. Almost perfect. Last round. Promise. 1. No one knows that if you hover the mouse over the shoe, you get a shuffle. You'd have to find that by accident. So, you should indicate that somehow. 2. If you close the app, when you return, your bankroll resets. Can you make it so that it carries...

Three more things (they keep coming!): 1. You said you had put a reshuffle option on the main page, but I don't see it. 2. Is it possible to lay the double-down card horizontally, as is done in all casinos? 3. This is the most important, as it is an error: When splitting, you are dealing one...

Good job. But now I've found an error in how you interpret strategy, which may be widespread. I had 16 vs. T, with a good count, and I've chosen late surrender for the default settings. So, I surrendered, and it told me I was wrong (it's not nice to fool Mother Nature! :)) , because the count...

1) Gronbog is NOT your buddy; 2) He did the sims for the book, so what do you expect him to say, that it's awful?; and 3) You've been barred from this and other sites; please don't try to return. Don

One more thing. To simulate walking away from the table (reshuffling), there should be a "shuffle" button. Right now, if you go into settings and come back out, it reshuffles, so there is a way to force this artificially. But having a shuffle button would be more elegant. Don

Thanks. Nice job. No, if they're stacked instead of fully visible, they've been counted already, so no problem. I hate to keep coming up with more enhancements, but you realize that the player's cards aren't the way they are in a casino either, where they are "built" on an overlapping diagonal...

So: The hit cards for the dealer are on the wrong side again. I realize that you've created a discard tray, so now there's not as much room on that side for multiple hit cards, but you can't put them on the other side. It will aggravate players, whose eyes aren't trained to look there. And now...

As we do these refinements, when you answer, can you please include the link to the site, so I don't have to scroll all the way back in the thread? Thanks. Don

It's a better direction, but you have a lot of blank space that might be better utilized. It's weird to look to the right for the discard tray, and, with respect to the cards themselves, it's awfully small. I could live with smaller cards and the tray to the player's left, where it belongs...

OK, better. However, ... I had double on any two cards chosen for the rules, had a monster count, 8 vs. 4, and it wouldn't let me double! Why would that be? Also, instead of your sliding line for the penetration, can you not find a way to put a discard tray instead? It isn't very easy to...

OK, so two things: 1) You've fixed the way the dealer takes his hit cards, but when you run out of room, because he hits multiple times, you're tucking the successive cards UNDER the already existing ones, which you must not do. If you have to overlap, because of space considerations, make sure...

Dear All, This is the Foreword that I wrote for a wonderful new blackjack book, Advantage Blackjack: Blackout at the Casino, by Oliver Larsen, published by Huntington Press. The book is currently at the printer and will be available in about two weeks. You may order it here...

I have one more request, perhaps a little trickier. You properly reveal the dealer's hole card by exposing it to the dealer's left, and our right, on the screen. But all subsequent dealer hit cards should be revealed to the RIGHT of the dealer's original upcard and progressively to the player's...

Terrific story, well written! I have to admit: you are THE rare exception for El Cortez. No one can play there like that, especially for 18 years!! I know people who spread $5 to $10 on their single deck and were thrown out in 18 minutes! :) I'll tell you two similar personal stories: In the...
