What a good idea, putting those three systems together like that. I always did like System40. Is your betting progression U1D2 M2? I noticed a couple of times you followed a losing 2 with another 2 unit bet.
I tried to follow your example on a couple of shoes I had, and it did very well. Thanks for the post-

Concerning the tote: which corresponds to the banker wins-the red circle or the blue x's?

I noticed that dublinbet and black orchid have been mentioned previously, but like some of you, I reside in the US. In another forum awhile back, someone had brought up the possibility of obtaining a foreign IP address while sill living here. I don't know enough about computers to tackle something like that, but ran across this yesterday: http://proxy.org/forum/1175967005.html - if it's possible, with dublinbet having such a good reputation, it might be something to think about if anyone can handle the tech issues of doing something like that. I hope I don't offend anybodies ethics by mentioning this!

Thanks for taking the time to do this, Mark-it'll sure help new members like me!

Kevster,
Did these people give any particular reasons to stay away?

Most of the comments were general ones, to just steer clear of BetPheonix. One member, who supposedly tried their live roulette table, said the spins weren't as random as they should be (compared to other online roulette tables). But after going through some of the posts on this forum, I feel more comfortable that I'm getting reliable information here.

MVSeahog, Mreteuya, and Brian-thanks for the quick replies to my previous questions!

Kevster,
Funny you should ask at this time! I just got finished with my nightly shoes (only two tonight) and hit +10 and +6 for a nice clean night.
Bet Phoenix accepts US players by charging your credit card with a cash advance for the initial deposit. They also want a copy of your photo ID and some other paperwork filled out. Evidently they are very big on CC security. They also NEED that ID sheet to actually pay you out so it's a must.
Of course I was not happy with sending this kind of information to them, but it was the only way I could get in.
My initial testing deposit was only for $300 and the "fees" from VISA amounted to something just under $20 or so. No wonder the credit card weasels love it when people use a credit card as a cash advance machine! The fees are outrageous!
But I digress. So far, Bet Phoenix is the only online, live dealt casino that I've found that will take US players.
When I signed up I did NOT take any of the bonuses. My account manager calls every now and then and wants to give me more bonuses. I don't want them. When I need to pull money out of there, I want it to come out with no strings attached.
But that's just me. Others appear to make a bunch off of the bonus programs.
Read the fine print and call and ask them if you have any quesitons. They appear to answer the phones and actually do call back, even from an email request!
So far, I've been very happy with them.
They do have a $5 minimum table that appears to be available pretty much at all hours. Also $10 and $50 minimum for when you get to that level.

Just curious, but in your experience, how timely of a payout do you receive from BetPheonix? I only ask since in a forum I was looking through a couple of months ago, a few of the members had posted to stay away from them.

Harrahs Reno has a tote board and I think they have the most baccarat tables also. Employees are quite nice too.
I always have a 100 unit bankroll with me...
Its part of the Maverick Formula for Success outlined in the full forum.
100 units is not really necessary, but the formula actually tells you how to calculate the bankroll you need.
Thanks for the correction, Mreteuya, it must be longer than I thought since being in Harrah's! Used to play only craps so went to low minimum tables like Circus. You have any idea where the other baccarat tables are in Reno? The last I looked, Eldorado got rid of theirs.

Kev,
They don't have tote boards where I play either. No problem as I just wait out the start of the shoe until I see an appropriate place to jump in. It's much easier when I play BetPhoenix as you can see the entire shoe as played, right up to the time you actually get into the room. A very nice feature, at least for me.

Is BetPheonix available to US residents? What's their minimums?
-
B-
Agree completely with MVS.
Several things about the Forum, and THE GAME, at least from my perspective.
Rule # 1) No matter what you read or what you see on this forum or anywhere else, CONSISTENT WINNING will require many, many hours of actual playing time, incredible patience, ( at times) unnerving discipline and (Very Important!) a bankroll commensurate with your expectations to experience the benefits of your "investment" ( time and money)
Rule # 2) There is no getting around Rule # 1
That said , I suggest you "google" the word Baccarat, read everything you can about systems/strategies/rules of the game, etc.etc.etc. Then just compare what you have just read to what you see here on this Forum and your decision to join will be a "NO-BRAINER", whether you decide to join or not.
Best of luck,
So how much of a bankroll do you guys suggest for Maverick? In Reno, the minimum is 15.00 and they don't have the totes-do you need the tote board for Maverick?

I'm very interested in joining the private forum and learning the way you play using the Maverick system. If someone has an excellent memory and is used to playing systems in a casino environment, how long would it take for me to learn this technique?
Thanks!!

Can anyone tell me where the Advanced System 40 scorecards are posted from the recent trip to the Hollywood casino? I got an email stating: "Our actual score cards are posted on my
public forum for all to see http://beatthecasino.com You can see exactly what we did. We played Advanced System 40 exactly to the rules and complete instruction posted on my private forum.
For those who master it, it is the only system you will ever need. You can't learn it by studying the score cards. But precise instruction on Advanced System 40 is included with our System 40
manual."
Would like to check them out-
thanks
