Professional players know this as well. Including regular practice drills in your training regimen will help you keep your error-rate to a bare-minimum. This requires accurate shuffle/wash simulation that teaches actual casino blackjack and not computer logic, either purposely or subconsciously.

Q: [What makes Boris Software different
from all the others?]
A: While the software Editions differ greatly in features, ALL
Editions contain Boris' famous "Blackjack Engine". This "Engine"
represents the MOST ACCURATE and most HIGHLY DETAILED Blackjack
software simulation available to the gaming industry today. As you
will soon discover, Release 4.44 takes the Boris Standard and moves
it up a notch, keeping Boris light-years ahead of the competition.
Since 1991, with Boris' Blackjack-Engine, you are guaranteed
accurately simulated shuffle and "wash" (card-preparation)
procedures. Most Blackjack computer software simply generates
"random" cards for the shuffle. Last I recall, that is NOT what is
being done in ANY casino. Random cards would be the equivalent of
playing "52-Pickup" 3 times for each shoe. Not only is this
ludicrous, more important, it is NOT ACCURATE.
Most Blackjack players are not programmers; most programmers are NOT
Blackjack players. With Boris, you get both: expert Software
Development and the collaboration with many Blackjack experts and
professional-level players during the last 15 years. Thanks to this
professional influence, you will find Boris screen layouts
(Blackjack Table, Statistics and Casino Management) reflecting the
REAL WORLD of Blackjack. Everything you see on the screen is there
for a reason; the underlying reason being casino simulation
accuracy.
While Boris may not be as "pretty" as the competition, what good is
"glitter" if the "engine" running the software is a Model T, or the
software in general is archaic, inaccurate or obsolete? Contrary to
popular belief, there is more to beating Blackjack than JUST
Card-counting and Basic Strategy. Boris for Blackjack provides you
with a number of features enabling the study of other winning
Blackjack methods, such as Clump-Tracking, Clump-counting,
Shuffle-Tracking, Target, B.I.A.S; as well as the ability to
evaluate a bundle of different betting methods.
With Boris for Blackjack, possibly for the first time in Blackjack
history, we have a practice tool that can bring us closer to meeting
our practice goals in a shorter amount of time. While practicing
with Boris, don't be surprised to find that you LOSE much of the
time (in comparison to play against other Blackjack programs). This
is because Boris software simulations mimic Real-World-Conditions so
closely. What you see with Boris is most likely the "way" it will
look in that casino at that point in time (since the table opened).
