No, it's they are standard chords with a 7th added. Find yourself a chord dictionary on line, that'll show it to you. As far as shuffle and triplet, it's strum pattern with a different accent. Sorry, I'm not very good at articulating this. If you have full access, GT has some really solid lessons on blues (all levels) that'll help. If not, you can cruise the internet and come up with some good examples.

You know what else really helps? Listen to a lot of blues. You'll hear what I mean.
