Blackjack Shark

I wish I had had this app when I first visited Vegas in the 90s. Back then you could buy a Basic Strategy wallet card from a gas station and do pretty well as the 21 tables. But this is on a whole new level. It has flash-card like capabilities and lets you tune the rules to match the variant you’ll play at the casino. What’s extra cool is the odds calculation. It does it in real time apparently using a Monte Carlo simulation. This shows your or the house’s edge and verifies adages like “never take insurance” (almost never) and other advice (spilt aces, never split 10s, etc.). Next time I go to the casino I’ll be sure to bone-up with this app beforehand.

Playing Blackjack in the casinos is one my favorite games. So often I see people making the wrong call based on probabilities, giving the house even more advantage than they should get. This app rights that to a degree and precision I have never seen before. Instantly turning you into the best blackjack player the Bellagio has ever seen. This app is not even the price of a buy-in and could easily save you money buy helping you learn, understand, and make the right call based on science and math.

Perfect tool to practice every iteration that you might encounter at a casino. Makes practicing far more fun than reading a standard cheat sheet and has a tool to understand more complex scenarios. Important investment to look smarter than your friends next time you visit Vegas.

I spent 15 minutes practicing basic strategy 100%, I wish the app had more drills. HiLo count is maxed out at 10 on hand analyzer but it’s very common to have counts up to 20 towards the end of the shoe and it would be great if this can be adjusted. Also, the session simulator could use a bet spread as people rarely flat bet

This is the best app I found that is actually serious about training you to lay blackjack in real life circumstances. You can check the math on all possible situations in detail and go into why a given play is optimal. Highly recommended!
