Would like to help. Can't download it. Can you make it easier to download on a computer?

Thanks. I saw many problems:

1. When I changed the rules settings, the BS chart didn't adjust. It remained the same as for the default setting.

2. There were many mistakes in the BS. You need to either go online to the Basic Strategy Engine at blackjackinfo.com or look at the BS charts in BJA3.
For example, with DAS, 4-4 should be split vs. 5-6.
A,6 should surely not be doubled vs. Ace!
16 should be surrendered vs. Ace.
If S17, A,8 shouldn't be doubled vs. 6, nor A,7 vs. 2.

I'm sure there are others. I stopped looking.

3. As for the interface, make the dealer's upcard the entire card! Don't hide it under the hole card, which, logically, goes BELOW the dealer's upcard, not on top of it. Also, make all the cards larger and easier to read quickly.

Fix all these things and then let me look at it again.
