Blackjack by Card Coach ‪١٧+‬

Our goals were simple:

· Teach blackjack and the rules of basic strategy
· Provide a no-nonsense, free blackjack game
· Give feedback and insight through gameplay statistics

Blackjack by Card Coach is broken up into clear sections to help you focus your learning and enjoy the game:

· Intro & Guide – Including everything from basic game rules to advanced tips and tricks, to what to look out for in a live casino blackjack table.

· Strategy Rules – Begin to learn (or refresh your memory!) about basic strategy – the series of computationally generated rules optimized to help lower the house odds against you in blackjack – with easy to remember, bullet point style one-liners.

:: GAME MODES ::


· Learn – An interactive game with cleanly laid out player and dealer hands, which directs you through prompts to the correct action for each turn of your hand, along with a reminder of the relevant basic strategy rule to help you memorize.

· Test – Responds to each action taken in a hand to confirm whether or not you selected correctly per basic strategy, providing a reminder of the relevant rule after the action.

· Play – A simple play mode providing a never-ending bank roll and basic variable betting options. No learning or testing here, just some good, fun card play!

· Assistant – A new mode to help you play out chosen scenarios. Tap to edit any upcard and the Basic Strategy recommendation is updated live. Then play your hand through to see potential outcomes. Finally, use the Repeat button to deal the same player hand and dealer upcard again, varying the hole card and further dealt cards to see other potential outcomes.

We also provide -

· Statistics – Extensive key game and test result data to show you how things are really going. This page will provide you with many game insights including how many correct answers you made in Test mode, how much money you won in Play mode, and how following (or ignoring) basic strategy may have impacted your results. Assistant mode result data is included separately here.

· Settings – Alongside basic configuration, this page allows those of you already experienced in blackjack to alter the app wide table settings in order to learn, test and play against the dealer in your preferred real world situations. The app supports many different configurations, including numbers of decks, whether or not the dealer must stand on Soft 17, use of a Continuous Shuffling Machine and much more.

Card Coach was conceived to help us study and practice our favorite card games. We wanted to learn and play online or offline, without the distractions of flashy apps, ads, or the constant need to pay more for tokens, tickets or chips. The first app to be created in this series is Blackjack by Card Coach, a brand new way to learn and play.
