- BlackJack! is a fun to use aid to learning Blackjack. It is designed to
- be a totally accurate simulation of casino play. BlackJack! is capable,
- with your effort, to take you to any level of play, it IS NOT a sure-win
- scheme or quickie system for beating the casinos. To become a

- playing system, BlackJack! can easily be adapted to support it. You can
- enter your own basic strategy tables, wagering system, true count
- tables(registered version) and counting system.
