The Gear Room
Every trainer on this site is free and works with nothing but your browser. This is the part that happens away from the screen: the deck you shuffle at home, the chips you use to size a bet before you try it live, the felt you roll out for a game night. Everything below is organized by which trainer it supports.

Plastic-coated cards in the same 8-deck count used in most blackjack and baccarat shoes. Practicing with the real deck size keeps your reps closer to what the table actually deals.
A blank cutting card marks where the dealer stops before reshuffling, the same way a casino shoe gets cut. Useful for card counting practice so your deck penetration behaves like a real shoe.
Holds played cards face up the way a dealer's discard rack does. Mainly useful for counting practice, since watching the discards pile up mirrors tracking a live shoe.
A pocket reference of the same basic strategy the Blackjack trainer grades you against. Handy for the pit, since you won't always have your phone out at the table.
A printed felt layout with the actual blackjack betting spot and insurance line. Good once you've got the decisions down and want to practice betting and splits on a real surface instead of a screen.
The full craps betting grid, printed to scale. Pairing this with the how-to trainer helps the bet names and locations stick before you're standing at a live table.
A printed roulette betting grid so you can practice placing inside and outside bets by hand, not just clicking them.
A printed baccarat layout with the Player, Banker, and Tie betting spots. Useful for running the third-card rules from the trainer on a real surface.
Do I need real cards or chips to get better at these games?
No. Every trainer on this site is free and grades your decisions with nothing to buy. This page is for people who want to take practice further, at home or before a trip.
Will any of this gear change my odds?
No. Nothing physical changes the math of a game. What changes your results is playing the strategy the trainers teach, and that's free regardless of what you're holding.
Why isn't there gear listed for every trainer?
Video Poker has no meaningful physical product to recommend, and Big Six is pure chance with no decision to practice, so neither gets gear here. Keno is trickier: Amazon sells a card-and-chip game called "Poker Keno," but that's a different game entirely, not the number-picking game this site's Keno trainer teaches, so we're not recommending it just to fill the slot.
Does buying through these links cost me anything extra?
No. The price is the same either way. Casino Trainer earns a small commission from qualifying Amazon purchases, disclosed above.
