  1. Nice Podcast... - Never tried/ looked at Precision Blackjack...but I am familiar with the concepts of card counting, Basic Strategy and “ clumping”. BUT, putting them all together? No worries, I have to buy a bigger toolbox( the earnings from which would most pay for my tuition, vs. trying to Beat The Casino on my own...) Looking forward to Ron’s insight into the game, and I like the idea of him heading up a club focused on Blackjack ONLY...(sounds like he’s got some time-tested stuff could help me craft a side-gig in Blackjack!)
  2. Hey, ALL

    Thinking by now you have learned that Keith has had to re-evaluate the date for IBS2 due to the once-in-a-hundred year hurricane struck the Bahamas...(WORST E.V.E.R.)

         AND I HAVE TO AGREE WITH HIS DECISION !!

    Having lived in “hurricane central”, for many years,  in Destin FL area, not so difficult to understand ‘ why ‘  he took this precaution ..( for your sake) 

    BUT...my wife Kayla and I still going to the Bahamas 10/03-10/08 ...Paradise Island hardly impacted...so ( just like our game), still taking a chance...

                              - still coaching you the difference ....how-to- play?

                                                                                                   versus  

                                                                                       How-to-win

                                                          

    Same offer as you come to Vegas...

             -$100-a-day, made easy.....( and I still buy lunch )

      Just talked to @Keith Smith and @kachatz1 on the phone and agree with the decision.

      I'm going to wait until early next week to decide if i'm still going or not on a family vacation.

      Baha Mar seems to have been spared and I can certainly use the vacation!

       

      BTW just to emphasize how Keith runs a legit business, he returned my seminar fee while we were on the phone.

      It's already back in my PayPal account! THAT is integrity.


      Looking forward to the next one.

      The issue that will be a problem is that where are they going to place all the folks who will need real assistance on Grand Bahamas. With that said I know a few are relieved that we are not having it there especially with the three tropical depressions in the background.  I hope I did the right thing.

      A few are holding out for a make up one and I will take a look at that over the next week and see what can be worked out and will let you guys know.  Thanks for your support of the forum.

  3. Ok, 2fer... (Straight out of Napoleon Hill’s handbook) ” It is literally true that you can succeed best and quickest by helping others to succeed” I’ll stake it all on UBBB. I want to help E.V.E.R.Y.B.O.D.Y. to win. Nobody gets left behind... (welcome back) 😎
  4. 5) ??? (Yup. Oh, Boy... You don’t like carnival rides? Turn the page now...) ( oh, and you certainly should not be playing Baccarat...🤔)
  5. 4) You still need a bankroll. Just there is no Stop Win, or Stop Loss. ( I will show you EXACTLY how to surmount the initial BR hurdle)
  6. 3) You bet everyday, every single recommendation. Many, many times the bets will call for “ opposing bets”...in which case you bet neither... ( You simply have to/ must trust the ‘process’ ) Sometimes just 3, 4 or 5 bets, for a whole day... sometimes 10+ Way easier than deciphering a BAC scenario
  7. Can’t find no fault with a man got more hair than the rest of ‘em put 😋together!
  8. Well, a couple of things.Lets be truthful, here 1) It’s going to cost you $99.99 , annually...but last 3 years ??? That $100/ year just a drop in the bucket... 2) You’ll need either an online sports betting account, or you’ll need to live near a B+M casino ... like I do ... 3) - 5) ? ( 850-xxx-xxxx) If you don’t know me by now... ( Harold Melvin & The Blue Notes, or SimplyRed...whatever is your fancy...)
  9. I’ve said it Over and Over . ( Likely you were not listening/ not interested...or and even more likely I was just pretty much “ mum” on the subject) You can make as much ‘Sports Betting’ ‘ as you can on Baccarat. OK, THERE, I said it. Sacre Bleu! OMG! WTF!?? So why did I keep it quiet, for so long? Because. I wanted to “ make sure” I’m sure now. And all you gotta do is ask... 850-687-3128 So, Will You?
  10. Remember Them Pioneers! ( right about now, hoping they are sleeping..) Oh, yeah......you just might get your chance in the barrel...
  11. Have to distinguish between BTS “semi-regular meetups” , and BTS “ International” ( the “ I “ , in IBS)
  12. Lots of questions about IBS1. And where/ when will IBS2 Be????? Rumored to be Las Vegas... (may be), or.. Maybe Not.
  13. “Run” Somepeople think after 3IAR , you just keep betting for the run… Some people think NO, wait until after 4IAR, you just keep betting for the run.. ( Either way, you can only lose once , you keep up betting on repeats...) REMINDER#1 - What’s ,”happening “ in the shoe ( O/R)...bet accordingly... REMINDER #2 - 87% solution will help. - I did not “ invent “ this ...it’s just the way it is...Call me 850-687-3128 you need help... REMINDER #3 - PBPBPBPB ( 11111111) is just “ a run” , same as P8 ( call me 850-687-3128 you need help...sorry, do not have time or inclination to answer all inquiries via this forum...) - If UwereME, And you pretty sure you can win more bets than you lose? Spend time/$$ in the casino? Or spend time with emails...) Thinking you got it.
  14. Yup. Thinking I got it figured out...we were staying out in Mesquite , NV @ a casino/ resort .... no Baccarat Golf course starts and finishes in AZ, but on state line...so in Nevada a few times as well during the round... (I've seen my “casino shadow” so many times, it had to be all about GroundHog Day...)
  15. Got to celebrate everyday, golf or no-golf...✔️ And thank you! ( but still thinking odds a bit better @ BAC? At least MOST of the time...🤓 )
  16. A HOLE-IN-ONE . The Palms , Littlefield AZ , par 3 , 217 yds. on the card , but the pin was up to 190, according to the range finder . Admittedly, a terrible golfer ( even worse than my Baccarat capabilities ! ) Thankfully ... the odds are usually better @ BAC 😈Perhaps fittingly, it was GroundHog Day ... since I used my Driver to “ shape a shot”, and was just trying to avoid all those big holes filled with sand surrounding the green, front and back...last 30 yards of carry looked like a slow roller ground-ball got past the shortstop and second baseman, and a worm-burner for sure ( good thing the flag was in! 😎 ) Alas ... cost me over $200 buying drinks in the clubhouse grill afterwards....Yikes ! What’s up with that ??
  17. And if you “ want fries with that?) , or a “ value meal” ...best you understand at McD’s , all the profit comes from the “ drink component” ... Just like Baccarat, you try to package this all into a single, stand alone package? - Guess What ( doesn’t ) happen... Better off you hand-pick a few things ( individual methodologies) work for you...and act accordingly...
  18. Hey, DB/ DA- Always welcome the chance to play with others! And of course have some food, some conversation, and a libation or 2 ( no matter even it’s just water or iced tea...a libation is a libation...just mine might could contain vodka or scotch in it...) Anybody gets together for BAC knows me, they know I seek not only to play BAC with them, I will search for a way for us to become “ friends” ...and hopefully I can get to know them well enough that I can help them with something else... ( Christmas lights are “ off limits”...but anything involving duck tape or a hammer , I’m pretty much ‘ all in’ ) Oh, and BTW, U can be d*** certain, I will be looking for a few BAC pointers from you...😎
  19. So, just to be crystal-clear, you can take this to the bank - You want Dorothy, The TinMan, a bunch of monkeys and some analogy to a certain Yellow Brick Road? .. U got ‘it. - You want Clint Eastwood making his point, over and over and over ? Check✔️ - Or, you livin’ DOWN UNDER.... MAYBE U LOOKING FOR SOME CrocodileDundee1 ‘served up’ ❓❓ ( CrocD...accosted on a city street... GIRLFRIEND says....” He’s Got A Knife...” CD says ...”A Knife?? THATS A KNIFE!! Just Kids Having Fun” ) or, just as good...CD2 (BadGuy) says “ What are your chances of gettin’-out-of-here with that jacket on?” ( CD) ... ( ThrowsKnife) , And responds... “ BETTER THAN AVERAGE” The point of all of this ... - All that movie stuff? You want me to throw in some MUZAK? ( It’s all CasinoTalk, carefully disguised to help U2Win.) - This stuff is not Rocket Science....you won’t need 120..0r 140...0r even 160 Just observe all speed limits ( stop loss, stop win, practice what you preach, etc...). - (And... ) Mom-and Dad were likely way smarter than you ever gave them credit for...You just didn’t know what they were saying... Yup... they were talking about Baccarat... all of this...the only thing anybody has to worry about is themself... BEAT THE CASINO. ( And we even have our very own Wizard!) (Sorry...GOTTA’ run. It’s time for me to make my FantasyFootballPicks for the College Bowl games...)
  20. So today, had ( even for Las Vegas) the rare opportunity to play alongside ...and have lunch with , 2 of our forum members. I would name them, but looking to keep everyone off of cell-block A ( including yours truly ) So we played the better part of 3 shoes...a couple at the Aria, and one at Palazzo 1st shoe Aria...just “ OK” 2nd shoe @ The Aria ( not talking out of school here) , if you cannot comprehend how those consecutive, 2-IAR’s might could just become your new best friend...read no further ... raining 2’s, like nobody’s business...One of our “ team” pointed it out to me about hand 40 or so...Vinny likely putting on the shades, even though might have been “ partly cloudy” in NJ today...( PS...I added that comment...not him!) 3rd shoe...played @ at Palazzo, went into it with stern warnings about those pesky, unpredictable1-IAR’s, and I am sure the participants in this Baccarat Murder Mystery would all agree - WE ALL MISSED THE BOAT...Once we “ woke up” , that ship had sailed... It was 87% solution on 1-IAR’s on Steroids! The point is this. Anybody , and I do mean all bodies, can really, really benefit from what we learn here as a group. 5 hours of playing with, and choking down a Pastrami on Rye, side by side, with two of our comrades...really, really fun and really, really well worth the monthly price-of- admission to BTC. - BTW...we all 3 of us witnessed other players come to the table, and/ or come-and-go back to the ATM ( or perhaps another casino) ?? And I am certain they likely could not possibly have understood just what it was we were talking about. I got no shoes to post, because between fielding a few phone calls, and playing alongside Mr. X. And Dr. Y., who can keep track? FTS. Believe it. Play it.
  21. Heck, AV ? - He gets to work indoors. - The floors are always wet, so perhaps even some “ overtime pay”. ( a virtual Net-Fix 24/7 of video entertainment with the likes of FrenchTickler, LazySusan , EndGame and BigBob ? Leaves little time left for Baccarat play ...) Best part? , He works ’ hard’ he is sure to become the store’s BACKDOOR key holder...
  22. Hey, MacBac...or Baca...or ? Lots of good stuff here. Especially you play online. unfortunately, I do not play on line and as have tried to repeatedly make clear here, living in Las Vegas, much more financially rewarding to go play than to spend my days on this kind of stuff ( analyzing spreadsheets) Call me. Or, not.. Hoping you understand! ( more than willing to help you, best way I know how...)
  23. Hey Gordon, There are many factors to consider, and if you would like to call me 850-687-3128 ( PST time zone) I will explain how to work your way through those things...specifically using 5D, or anything else you would like to discuss ) - I cannot give you a “ pat” answer here, as I know nothing else about the shoe... ( anyone who has ever called me about 5D always comes away with a much better understanding of not just 5D, but things which will help you improve your winning ratio as compared with total hands played) Good luck, and hope you call... Kevin
  24. I think “ the drive by scanning method” may give you a clue, but let’s face it...ThisIsNot a SONIC BURGER COMMERCIAL.. ( deciding whether you “ want fries with that” ?, still boils down to whether-or-not what you want is on the menu...) And the best way to do that is to get really, really involved in analyzing the shoe., having a look whether to skip Chick-fil-A altogether...and move onto the next shoe... or, as Clara might have said...” WHERES THE BEEF?”
