In the 1980's I programmed my T.I. calculator to do drill and practice for BJ basic strategy based on a chart I found in a book.


and T.I.'s have not changed one bit since

I made flash cards and am a big advocate of that method. Trainers are fine but the soft hands and splits don't happen often enough to test those situations properly. Maybe I should make a setting in the trainer to only do those hands.

I think that is a great idea, Wizard! You might also want to include double and surrender hands.

I promised, so here goes. Read at your own risk (disclaimer ;-)
The array of boxes shown in WOO for Basic Strategies hurt my head. I had to find a way to remember. I learned a 'basic' many years before WOO, same concepts and 'almost' identical decisions.
I wrote down something in English, in paragraphs if you will.
3 paragraphs to be exact. Went something like: (Knowing that pairs and soft hands have their own paragraphs, and this example is for H17, no surrender etc)
Two cards up to 8 total, hit vs any Dealer upcard.
Two cards of 9 total, double vs 3 thru 6, hit 2 and 7 thru Ace.
Two cards of 10 total.....
Etc....
You can finish that paragraph, do the whole thing in your own words so you can remember it. It is a short paragraph.
Then tackle pairs:
2s or 3s, split vs 2-7 ( I actually said 2s, 3s split to seven, it needs to roll off the tongue ), hit 8 thru Ace.
4s hit 'cept 5 & 6 doubles.
5s.......
6s........
Etc. you need it in your own words.......
Then tackle soft hands:
A,2 A,3 double vs dealers 5 or 6, otherwise hit
A,4 A,5 double vs dealers 4, 5, 6...........
A6...
Treat 3 or more cards at a live table as a total just like 2 cards (OK I stand 3 card 16 ;-)
Just the most Basic of Basic....
Three short paragraphs, in words. There is symmetry in the order often, which makes it easier.
Not a bunch of boxes, just 3 paragraphs. You can recite them driving down the road, or with your head on your pillow as you go to sleep, or as you are walking into the casino. Once you know them, you can repeat them.
Paragraph about 2 card totals.
Paragraph about pairs.
Paragraph about soft hands.
None are long paragraphs.
If you sit down and deal yourself a couple hundred thousand hands from a six deck shoe, you will never have to repeat them again. You couldn't play it wrong if you wanted to, it's automatic - no thinking.
I actually never wrote any of that down, I just taught myself in paragraphs. I then repeated them to myself.
That worked well for me, but then my mind works in mysterious ways, when it works at all ;-!
Then you can focus on 'other' things.

It is not a matter of memorizing the correct play.
You must be able to play without thinking and trying to memorizing anything. For instance if soft 18vs 9 comes up you must automatically know what is the correct play without thinking and trying to memorizing anything.
Just like a pilot in an aero plane if an emergency situation arises he must be able to execute the correct move without thinking anything. For that they have to undergo flight simulator training so every often.
It should be the same for your BJ play.
Here is where I get my flight simulator training for BJ.

Grey area for me. I'm going to leave it up because:
The version first found is free.
Reputable site known to many members.
Might be of use to some.
However;
Free version doesn't work on all devices, including my phone, so I can't fully check the link atm.
Free version is a teaser for an expensive pro version below it.
WoV is not endorsing or recommending either the free or paid version of this program, with me leaving the link available. It may yet be removed.
If the House lost every hand, they wouldn't deal the game.

I've never played at a Blackjack Table because I absolutely hate playing any game where I do not know the optimal strategy while sleeping.
I'm not a very visual learner, and there's no way I can memorize a color coded chart of boxes.
I quickly threw together a 1 page strategy sheet that, to me, is far easier to memorize. Check it out here: https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B6TkUueCoFB0ZGdVdmRSckRDZXM
How did you get basic strategy down 200%? I am thinking about flashcards as well...

I have a photographic memory so for me just straight memorization. If you like colors, use color charts that appeal to you visually.

I learned basic strategy through memorizing the charts in a booklet entitled Smart Casino Play by Edwin Silberatang. This was in the early 80s. I didn't know why the strategies were the way they were, but I memorized them anyway. I had always wanted to play blackjack well.
The booklet was only $2 back then. The scotch tape was added later.

I've never played at a BJ table either, but I promised my wife I would try a few rounds with her. This would be the first trip we've had together in over 10 years (been taking care of her mom who recently joined the Lord).

So take my comments with this in mind: I've no PLAYING experience.
So for the last couple of weeks I've been practicing the Wizard of Odds BJ Game & Trainer - up to a couple of hundred hands a day. I shuddered thinking of the 200+ cells to memorize in Basic Strategy, but came across the Wizard's Simple Strategy with only 21 cells to memorize.
Then in the Wizard's website, Jeff Pepper made a strategy listing the exceptions, and also made a colorized card.

This has only 18 cells to memorize - but don't forget, as other posters have stated, you can bring your card with you to the table. I have the Jeff Pepper card down pat, I would say. I make maybe 1 (careless) mistake every 80 hands or so (1.25% error, in case you are math-oriented). That is my signal to stop practicing, and might be a good indicator when I get to a table to stop or take a break after 80 deals - or if my buy-in is close to 0.

I don't have PLAYING experience to share with you (yet), but I'm happy to share my LEARNING experiences with you and how I was able to memorize the 18 cells in Jeff Pepper's strategy card.

If you don't want to memorize a strategy card or bring one with you, at least read through this forum, and capitalize on the experiences the others are happy to share with you!

One of the easiest way to try it all out is to use one deck (for simplicity) and deal (say) three or four hands as if you're the dealer. Then act on the players in turn. Eventually the regular decisions come up often enough you get to recognise them quickly.

There's an error on that chart (at blackjackscience.com) which should be fairly obvious - it says that you should surrender 16 vs. 9 in a shoe game only with H17. Since S/H17 has no effect on upcards of 7-10 that must be a mistake.
