If it is anything else, please go to http://www.gamblersanonymous.org.If you play the basic strategy, without counting cards, you will lose over the long haul. You can see this by putting the web start version of this program in automatic mode (T command), and it will play about ten thousand hands a second, using the basic strategy. That "less than a percent" edge that the casino gets adds up real quick at over 10,000 hands/second! But if you simulate counting cards (see config in web start version), you can see that can swing things in your favor. There are no guarantees that the Panopset Blackjack simulation is error free, but the engine is open source (and exactly the same in the swing and android) so anyone can check it.If you disagree with any basic strategy move in the chart above, please note in a comment, with references.
