Blackjack Trainer · iOS
A Trainer for the Table You Actually Play.
Every trainer I tried drilled a generic chart. The tables I play at aren't generic. Pick your table's rules and every drill, correction and simulation follows them. It's a trainer, not a game.
No real money anywhere in it. The chips are practice chips.
Your Table
3:2 or 6:5, Free Bet, soft 17, push on 22, late surrender, six decks. Each table shows its house edge, so you know what you're up against.
Drill
Basic covers the whole chart. Weak Spots deals what you keep missing. Custom Hands is whatever you pick. Warmup is 25 hands before you head in.
The Chart
Basic strategy for your table on one screen. Tap a cell and it tells you why. The chart and the drills share one engine, so they always agree.
Corrections
Get a hand wrong and the app says why, and roughly what that call costs per hand in practice chips. It teaches; it doesn't judge.
Count
Hi-Lo on a six-deck shoe that runs down as you play. Running count at four speeds, true count, deck estimation by eye. Pro adds a full table and bet sizing from the count.
Deviations
Where basic strategy stops being right once the count moves. Index numbers worked out for your rules, sorted by what each is worth.
Track
A log for real sessions: where, which table, buy-in, cash-out, hours, notes. It works out your hourly rate and stays on your phone.
The Simulator
Plays session after session of your table on your phone, no server. Five betting styles, four session lengths: the typical night, the good one, the bad one, and what your mistakes cost.
Stays on Your Phone
No account, no sign-in, no server. Everything stays on your device.
Free to Train. Pro Adds Depth.
Drills, the chart, three of the five count drills, deviations and the session log are free. The free simulator runs once an hour. Pro adds full-table counting, bet sizing from the count, unlimited simulator runs at about twice the depth, and your whole training history instead of the last 7 days.
