Leave a Review A Blackjack Card Counter
  • Does exactly what it says

    It counts cards for you but it really is useless. It doesn't teach you how to use the card counting system. You can't use in a casino or you can be charged with a felony.

    I would reccomend card counter by tmsoft: it gives you practice and actually teaches you how to count cards.
  • Good App, but too hard to use without being noticed- there are better devices out there

    Its hard to know what button you are hitting with the touch screen and not being able to look at it. A company called Emerge Innovations sells a device that is much smaller and has actual buttons that is much easier to use.
  • Card counting is not illegal in Nevada casinos BUT . . .

    Users of iPhones beware -- state gaming agents are watching you. California gaming authorities tipped off their Nevada counterparts to a blackjack card-counting program that can be used on either the Apple iPhone or the Apple iPod Touch portable music player. "The program calculates the true count and does it significantly more accurately," according to a Gaming Control Board memorandum sent to casino operators last week warning of the electronic device. Card counting is not illegal in Nevada casinos. However, using a device to aid in the counting of cards is considered a felony under Nevada laws governing cheating, control board member Randy Sayre said. Gamblers using the iPhone card-counting program can be detained by casino operators and arrested by state gaming agents. "We wanted to put the industry on notice to be aware this device is out there," He added that there haven't been any reports of the device being used in Nevada. Sayre and the agency consider the iPhone program an electronic method for cheating. Operators of a Northern California Indian casino discovered customers using the program and alerted the California Bureau of Gambling Control.The program is installed through the iTunes Web site. It makes counting cards easier, Sayre said. The program uses four different strategies for card counting. It also operates in the "stealth mode," in which the phone's screen is shut off. The program can be run effortlessly without detection as long as the user knows where the keys are. Sayre said it is up to individual casino operators to decide policies concerning the use of cellular phones and other electronic devices at gaming tables. Last year, state gaming regulators eliminated the ban on cellular phones inside race and sports books. After iPhones came on the market in 2007, Harrah's Entertainment halted their use at the World Series of Poker. Cellular phones are banned at the tournament, although iPods and other MP3 players are allowed. "We're looking at this internally and this is an issue that needed to be in the public domain,"

  • Excellent App!!

    Well worth the money.
  • Counting is not illegal

    The statement that counting is not illegal is correct, but using a device to keep count is. I work in casino surveillance. This is a great program it gives the option to use several different counting systems. However the first review is correct if you get caught using any counting device in a casino you will be arrested. If you are caught counting in your head you can be asked not to play blackjack any more. Good luck.

  • Good start

    How about a critical index alert based on the count. Maybe in stealth mode a vibration alert for optimal bet increase times. Well worth 2.99 thank you.
  • counting down a deck

    i would like to be able to count down a deck one card at a time with the ability to control the speed on the app and try to keep the count then because counting down a deck with actual cards and using this app is stupid
  • Good app. But....

    Good app,but don't get caught using it in a Las Vegas casino, as you will be arrested and porsecuted by the Gaming Control board for using a device...
  • Actually it IS illegal

    The act of card counting itself is legal. It becomes illegal when you use a device to help (like an iPhone/iPod). If you get caught using this in a casino, you'll be in deep trouble.
  • Not Illegal

    Wow, you couldn't be more wrong. Card counting is NOT illegal. Read the actual law, their isn't one. Casino's will kick you out if they see this but it is perfectly legal. This program does what it says. Great App
