Over the years, especially in smaller casinos, Or those with just a few tables, I have encountered this obstacle... I know it doesn’t work every shoe, every hand, or whatever...but if you find yourself at a casino where they just won’t give you many free hands, AND you are playing by yourself , ( NICELY, and PATIENTLY) explain to the dealer and the floor manager that you understand their policies, so that in order to adhere To their ‘ rules’, you are going to be taking what is plainly visible on the tote board, and put it through an extensive series of testing before betting any given hand. Since they are giving you free pen+paper to write things down on, explain you will keep three scorecards..(.using any methodology you understand....with each scorecard a different way of looking at the game...and bet accordingly ) - Like #1 is Naturals, #2 is Disparities, #3 is SAP , or perhaps V87 (use your imagination!) I guarantee you 100% they will ask you what you are doing, and if you ( NICELY, and PATIENTLY) explain you are just “ recording” all the information on their tote board, albeit in a different fashion, carefully keeping track of the game so as to accommodate and abide by their own set of rules, you won’t be banned...you won’t be kicked out, or anything like that. But what you will gain is the benefit of taking all the time you need to make table-minimum bets , the likely result of which you will more than likely WIN, or even just stay in a narrow range between your stop win and stop loss parameter since you are not rushed between bets...thereby making the best decision(s) you can. It won’t take long. Before you know it, a few more players will likely show up, and they will be the ones who will keep the game moving at a more normal pace...from which point you can either speed up your ‘ analysis ‘, and keep pace with them...or, just FTWP (Follow the winning player) I know it’s a pain to put on a show like this, but it is actually entertaining as it won’t be long before you will have an ‘ audience ‘ of casino personnel who will be intrigued by your patience and willingness to explain the various things necessary to actually win more bets than you lose....most of whom will be intrigued by your thoughtful approach(es) to the game, or will have no friggin’ idea what you are talking about. ( NOT ONLY THAT, BUT YOU CAN ‘ chat them up’ about their families, etc, etc...and that will definitely get them rooting for you to win...) You can always prepare in advance at home ....Take a shoe from SBI, from which you already know the sequence of outcomes....Record it 3 different ways, and sharpen your P/ B ( Plenty of Bullshit) “ talking points” about how to chose winning hands... - Take those 3 cards with you to the casino, and keep referring back and forth to them as you play an actual game...as if you are using historical data to make current decisions ... Next visit to the casino you will be amazed at the reception you get... nobody will care how long you take between hands, but they will be intrigued / amazed by your approach...😇 And most important, you will likely come out a winner...by just slowing down, and taking all the time you need to figure out what the shoe is giving you.......and if still not winning? - Ask for a NEW SHOE...they will more than likely accommodate you because you are trying so darn hard to win!! ( and beat them at their own game...because a different shoe can easily throw the advantage in your favor...) Sneaky Bast __d!

The best is yet to come...

Hey TRB... doing fine so far with the Pandemic scenario....first couple of weeks without the casino had to seek out some heavy meds, but a couple of new neighbors moved into the ‘ hood and all is well ( Jack Daniels , Jim Beam some guy who calls himself ‘Captain Morgan’ ) Be Safe out there !

Thinking everyone knows I live here in Las Vegas...used to live in FL before moving here... before that, 17 years in Chicago...and before that, 10 yrs. in California, and 28 in Ohio... ( there were no casinos in Ohio back then, just card clubs in California @ the time, and while in Chicago...had to travel up to Pauwakee Indian casino in Milwaukee, or down to the boats out toward St. Louis, or Hammond, Indiana had a few casinos...then finally the Rivers Casino opened up in Chicago, right before I moved to Florida in 2007 ....closest 250 miles to Biloxi)

SoulJazz- OK — S.U.G.G.E.S.T.I.O.N...here you go... HOW2WIN-BETTING101 (a) Starting with betting hands 1-10, establish a “GOAL” for yourself 1st 10 hands ( Flat-betting , win 1 more than you lose, only making 1 bet those sit 10 hands, MAX!) When you get to +1 or -1 , even it is your very 1st bet, COMPLETELY (!) STOP BETTING UNTIL HAND 11( excluding ties) ———————————————————————————————————- (b) Hands 11-20 the same, still down to 1 bet max, and if you get to +1 or- 1 within this range , COMPLETELY STOP BETTING UNTIL HAND 21 ( excluding ties) ——————————————————————————————————— (c) Repeat for hands 21-30, 31-40, 41-50, etc etc until shoe is over THERE YOU HAVE IT !! FLAT BET, Wayyyyyyyyyy LESS FREQUENTLY, BUT WITH MORE CAREFUL CONSIDERATION, AND YOU WILL BECOME A LONG TERM WINNER - You will gradually improve your hit rate. - Your confidence will grow. - Your ability to discern between BadBets, NoBet, GoodBets, BetterBets, Best Bets - Will improve by the day. And you will forever understand how/why your HIT RATE % is the most important tool in your toolbox, the one measurement which will give you the ability&confidence to increase your unit size. Ignore this @ your own risk ( and please, don’t say I never told you so...) There you have it SoulJ- - (and no...Lessons 2-?? Are not even up for discussion....) So pulleeze don’t ask until you master 101, and have demonstrated just exactly how you went about it for everyone on this forum... ( I just somebody told me about 101 years ago...)

1) “ improving “ your BetSelection win-rate day by day, week by week, month by month should ( IMO) be your #1 TARGET to aim for. - so make sure you measure it, increment-by-increment, until you finally settle on what measurement yields the best results...( Rinse & Repeat)...careful to keep accurate daily and cumulative stats to help you truly evaluate/ improve your progress. 2) Next, learn how to break-down your results / measurements into sequences smaller than a whole shoe... ( 1 hand, 10 hands, 1/2 a shoe, etc...etc...) - This is Manufacturing 101 !! ( they don’t start by evaluating the finished product, they break-down the individual components of measurement to focus on each procedure, each process...the result being a better outcome! - NOTE : Your hit-rate will likely ascend over time, and as you gain confidence in same, you will become a better / more successful player! 3) MEASUREMENT + EVALUATION OF RESULTS (more practice, study/review of plays made ) + CONTINUAL ‘ ADJUSTMENT” To create your own methodology works best for you WILL RESULT IN A BETTER HIT RATE ( and this is how you will win flat-betting)

Might be a little more subtle, once you figure it how to use it...

An example... (WHAT WOULD THE PIT BOSS THINK??) . Yikes.

Good commentary here. There are many, many betting progressions which can be USEFUL, OR, DESTRUCTIVE...” depending”... SPOILER ALERT: Everything logical for you as a player depends on your “ hit rate” ( percentage of bets you win, vs. those you lose.), your bankroll, your tolerance for risk and your understanding of how to read a shoe, and bet/don’t bet accordingly I never ventured progressed to the math level of QUADRATIC EQUATIONS ...( surprisingly, my former wife did) , but if I had, thinking I could give you a A+B, -2xC, divided by .5A = D ( decision...what to do/ bet how much). ( substitute P, B, numerical results, O/R count, bankroll, etc...) . Or something like that...I don’t understand it, likely you wouldn’t, and it might take a calculator at the table to make any decisions ( um, not allowed...) Yes, I do believe flat betting is the long term best option for the vast majority of players. That said, tomorrow Keith working on a another video as part of his review of BTC Legacy approaches to Baccarat bet decision-making. It might help those of you who want to go beyond simple flat betting, but at a reduced risk than some of the more historically infamous systems which were primarily developed for Roulette... Stay tuned.

Now ....that is Elegant. (or, Elegant 1) So keep on keeping on. Grind out those wins. - Even you have to “ sit-on-your-hands” until they feel numb... - What at first hurts, feels way better you start winning more than you lose. Best of luck to you, and to everyone talking their time to read this. And...more importantly, putting it into practice.... (very few will do it. But even fewer will regret it...) ouchee. hurts so good. (You’ll get used to it, you give it a chance)
