Hit Or Split Features
Hi all,
I recently developed
http://www.hitorsplit.com, and (obviously) it is still a work in progress. Thanks for all the comments/suggestions/feedback.
1) Under Full mode, the shoe is actually shuffled and cards are dealt from the shoe to 70% penetration - at which point, the Deal Button says: "Shuffled...Deal?" So counting can be used for advantage play under Full mode, but the game itself currently does not keep track of the count. (I used to have a setting to track the red7 count and even alter the bet at the appropriate count by a certain multiple recommended by Arnold Snyder in Blackbelt in Blackjack, but I removed it.)
2) The Options Button is only a toggle button for displaying or not displaying the options and strategy charts.
3) Ken was correct. You can add the site to your favorites from the Menu Bar or by clicking on the white space on the site, but not by clicking on the Java Applet.
4) As you can see, the resolution, graphics, and presentation leave something to be desired, and I hope to improve that soon.
5) Here are some of the features I would like to add in order of importance. Let me know what you think of them or if you have other suggestions.
- add hall of fame (record high scores)
- improve graphics and presentation
- provide user general feedback about mistakes (eg., the site would say: "Split 99, except against a 7, T, or A" if the user makes a mistake on 99)
- add offer for insurance
- add sound effects
- add ability to play multiple hands
- add timed sessions
- add chip graphics
