CardCoach trains you to play every card game at mathematically optimal strategy. Each hand you play is evaluated against perfect basic strategy — every deviation is flagged with the correct action and the EV you lost. Your weaknesses are tracked across sessions, and a drill system surfaces the exact scenarios you get wrong most often.
The home screen shows every available game. Each has its own rule engine, strategy table, and coaching logic. Blackjack supports six rule variants covering Vegas Strip, Downtown Vegas, European, Atlantic City, and more. Spanish 21, Video Poker, Baccarat, Three Card Poker, Casino War, Let It Ride, Pai Gow Poker, and Texas Hold'em are all included.
Every action you take is evaluated against the mathematically optimal play for the exact rule variant and hand scenario. If you deviate, the coach shows you the correct action and the expected value loss in hundredths of a unit. Six modes control how much help you get: Free, Coach, Drill, Count, Speed, and Exam — from fully assisted down to no hints at all.
The stats page breaks down your accuracy by decision category: hard totals, soft totals, pairs, and surrender decisions. Each category shows accuracy percentage, total decisions, and average EV loss per 100 hands. The drill engine uses this weakness profile to generate scenarios you get wrong most often — targeted practice instead of random repetition.
Every game maintains an independent bankroll. Your current balance, lifetime deposited amount, and peak balance are tracked across all sessions. At the start of each session you set a starting bankroll; net results from each hand are automatically applied. You can reset any game's bankroll at any time from the stats page.
Each game has its own rule engine, optimal strategy tables, and coach implementation. Nine games — one unified platform.
