"This is outstanding software. It is the best, most realistic casino Blackjack practice software I have seen. Any player, regardless of skill, will improve his game using Casino Vrit Blackjack. I highly recommend it."
"The depth of practical analysis possible with CVCX is really impressive, and as if that weren't enough CVCX also comes with thousands of selectable pre-run sims that explore all the combinations of rules, number of decks, systems, betting ramps and target goals commonly seen. There's virtually no practical aspect of the game that CVCX cannot simulate. In my opinion, it's the most powerful software ever developed to enable players to select those games, playing systems and betting strategies that virtually assure the maximum possible winning advantage."

"As a manager of the MIT Blackjack Team I've trained many players, and I have to say that Casino Verite has no peer when it comes to BJ practice software. If you're serious about taking your knowledge and understanding of blackjack to the next level, I strongly recommend the Casino Verite suite."

"We always wrote our own simulators from scratch on the MIT Blackjack Team in the 90's, because we found all the existing software at that time to be severely lacking in functionality and power. That's why when I evaluated CV and all its components, I was extremely surprised at what it could do. Not only did it fully match, and in some areas sur, the power and flexibility of our custom simulators, but it made the whole process of evaluating and comparing different games and strategies intuitive, simple, and a downright pleasure to use. We now recommend CV to all students taking our Blackjack Science Seminars." (Seminars no longer available)
