## Description

Blackjack Trainer 101 is a dedicated practice aid for learning basic blackjack strategy. It is not a casino game but a training tool to help players memorize optimal moves across common situations.

The extension offers four learning modes (random hands, soft hands, pairs, and a customizable mode with a paid upgrade), plus configurable house rules (number of decks, soft 17, doubling rules, surrender) and adjustable skill levels. It includes a strategy guide, a hint feature, and left/right-handed layouts for flexible play styles.
