    It is my humble viewpoint, that the single most distinctive quality that a person can have is that they WORK at what they do.  We all know the old tried and true saying, "if it was easy, the whole world would do it."   

    Research, testing, practice, comparisons of strategies, betting progressions or flat, win goals, lost limits, patterns, counts, personal preferences, successes, failures, mental and emotional aspects, all of them and more enter into all of it.  

    It demands hard work and learning how to work smarter.  I love and appreciate being a part of a community that does exactly that.  Cheers and admiration to the hard working members, owners, and friends of BTC.  

    I'm inclined with what you said. Listen more than talk and never stop learning that is my mojo in life

    My experience with NOR is , it is not a holy grail, will not make you rich over night , i have lost with nor before, But nor is working in others , Now I am using 3EM. and Brad tb4l.

    Is Dave Gunas an Indian man? is so always be careful about Indian.

    Dave Gunas is a white dude in his late 40's early 50's with a funky 80's spit hairstyle (luckily he ddn't dress like one LOL) I met with him and his wife 4-5 yrs ago at Mohegun Sun when I lived in the East Coast. He's no where near his claimed status when I met them, you know the extravaganza lifestyle and making big money playing baccarat all over the country...

    Okay, hopefully I got your guys' attention lol...What I really wanted to say was that I signed up NOR & MDB couple years ago for $600 or something. However, I was too busy running a business as well as other commitments and never really found the time to study and practice the NOR/MDB systems to put everything together. Then, last year, having completely forgot that I was still a member at Beat the Casino, I found some "Baccarat Guru" that tried to sell me his system. Normally, I'm very cautious of things like this because it's done online, but we chatted/messaged back and forth as well as text/phone call and the guy even sent me pictures of chips that he had won (one of them he won $19K in one session "supposedly") at the casino where he plays--Foxwoods or Mohegan Sun in Connecticut. He told me he and his team had won over $1.8 million in 7-8 years and his system can be played at any time anywhere and for many hands/shoes (basically not having to switch around different systems or playing according to a certain shoe). He even went as far as to send me pictures of his "sick daughter" in the hospital to try and make me feel sympathetic or some shit. Long story short and after much back and forth skepticism, I finally gave in and paid him a good sum of money to learn his "system". He has since took my money and ran and barely taught me anything about his system. It was something about using a marker and having multiple "chase" columns betting with or against the marker. Also, at times the bets could get as high as 20-30 units which personally I think is crazy risky high.

    Now, I just want to leave all that behind me and am back on BTC. However, since remembering that I was a member here, I have been sent messages from the Admins that the entire forum is revamped and the business model has changed. Originally, I became a member to learn from Ellis, but I guess he's not here anymore. What happened to him and why is he not here anymore? Wasn't he the creator of a lot of these systems on this forum? 

    After looking through the updated announcements, I realize that there is now a $50 monthly fee. After my whole situation, I am extremely leery of anyone trying to peddle their so-called "systems" especially when it comes to "gambling"...because let's face it, who in their right mind would try to sell you a system that are making them rich if they are doing it day in and day out? That's a frickin golden goose!! With that said, can any of the Admins/Mods and/or experienced players share with me why paying a monthly fee of $50 would be worth it? What I paid for NOR/MDB was $600+ (or maybe $600 for NOR & $200-400 for MDB) & each year's subscription would be another $600/yr not to mention the price I paid getting scammed by that reptilian motherfucker.

    Do these systems actually work for you guys and is it worth paying $600/yr? Are the members here really winning with them on a consistent basis, day-in and day-out? What percentage of the members here are actually professional Baccarat players using these exact same systems? I read messages where the Admins/Mods said "another one of our members have joined the million dollar club" or something....do you guys actually have legitimate financial statements or documents that have confirmed and tracked these members' winnings using the exact methods/systems? How come we never really hear anything in the news about people winning big in Baccarat?...it's always blackjack. I heard some gurus say that blackjack is not the game to play anymore...Bac is, so why's that? I've only heard of one story of someone winning big in Baccarat and that was Phil Ivey with his edge sorting case. Is Bac and Blackjack able to be played legitimately for a living over a long period of time?...from my experience it seems like poker is the only true card game with a player advantage.

    Sorry if I may have ruffled anyone's feathers, but there are way too many "Bac and casino game gurus" out there that I guess BTC is my last resort to be able to play Bac successfully on a consistent basis. Please share any of your advice or suggestions and if paying for the Premium Membership makes sense and is a great ROI. I would actually prefer to pay for solo training with an experienced and successful instructor that actually makes his primary income from (if possible).

    I look forward to your responses thank you!

    P.S. that asshole scumbag's name is Dave Gunas Jr from Connecticut and plays at Mohegan Sun and Foxwoods (maybe some of you on here might've heard of him?). He will also invite people to fly in from wherever and play alongside him and pool money together or whatever (fortunately, I didn't do this because this training package is even more expensive). LMAO SMH!!

     

    I actually met with Dave Gunas (nickname BareFOot) in person and you're actually correct about him. I'm a Bacarat Player for many years and playing extensively at both Mohegan Sun and Foxwood in CT as well as Atlantic CIty  so when I met one that say crazy things about something that is in my blood I knew he's fake but I didn't try to expose him. I invited to him to the VIP lounge for dinner and talk, Until then, he would watch carefully of what he was going to say. After done eating I gave him $500 for him insisting of the time spent "consulting" me with his playing strategies and he needed help because his stepdaughter was being sick??? (A normal person would wonder why someone would be so desperate financially when he could coup up free casino money in no time????). I said it's no problem because I could make all this moneyback and even invited him to play along side me to make some money but he denied it was not his night only sit to watch I played. He did provide some "feedbacks" on what to bet but I proved he was wrong than most (LOL ) I made all of that money back and then some more in around 10 hands playing very conservatively. He was pretty amazed with the way I played though he didn't say it I still could see that in his eyes. He claimed he was top Bacaratt player there at Mohegun but I never did see him around at all. This is to say that we need to watch out for certain Holy Grail's systems out there, if it's too good to be true it's simply too good to be true.

    FEAR.......The fear of losing.......can create the fear of winning.....which paralyzes you into exactly the thing you don't want to......losing.  

    It's easy to fear the next hand.  What will it be? Did I make the right decision? Should I have made opposite of the decision I just made? What happens if I lose? Is this a good strategy I am using?  The list goes on and on, but what is it really?  It's called fear.  The sooner you accept the next hand is going to do exactly what it does and you have no control over it AT ALL and you remain CALM, the better you will be able to see what the shoe is doing and isn't doing.  

    Fear, anxiety and the worst of all....PANIC... has nothing to do with the casino, the shoe, the dealers or pit boss.  It has everything to do with your own emotional control.  I have been there and done that, so it isn't something that I haven't experienced.  

    It had nothing to do with the game, it has everything to do with me.  So, I had to learn how to beat those destructive emotions and behavior.  Things like breath control....the simple......slowly breathe in and slowly breathe out.  Heart rate.....fear definitely elevates your heart rate...how do I slow it down?  Recognize it and know you need to relax and calm down.....by doing exactly that.  

    Two great movies to watch "Apollo 13"  and "The Right Stuff".   A huge part of their training was how to remain calm, even when staring into the face of impending disaster.  Not just the astronauts but the ground crew also.  Watch what happens in the "The Right Stuff" when panic sets it and what takes place as a result of it.  Watch what happens in Apollo 13 when they decide to take that one opportunity against overwhelming odds to get back to earth safely and they remain calm about it to execute it to perfection.   Everyone was afraid......but...they had already learned to calm themselves to have a clear mind to do what they must.  

    I can tell you as a certified rescue scuba diver, the one thing that causes more accidents, injuries and death in, on, or under the water is PANIC.  

    Simply ask yourself, getting filled with fear, anxiety, worry and panic.......did it change the outcome of the hand just dealt?  Of course it didn't.  Did all that stress, uncertainty, and mindless praying change the outcome of the last hand dealt?  Of course it didn't.  Whatever it takes for you to relax, and be calm.......is well worth it and you will definitely see the benefits of doing so.  

    Just like anything else......it takes practice and hard work to do so.  It's a large part of the "Right Stuff".....

    very well said Avion. When in fear you're already self defeated even before the game begin. Win or Lose, stay concentrated, move on and think of the next hand.

    One of the lesson I have truly  learn is accept lost and losing season. do not chase lost with progression, and once lost to our  lost limit stop and go take rest come back other day.. Never play too long hours example 5 hours 10 hours or whole day no rest. 

    Looi, you sound like a traditional Asian Baccarat  player, that's really good for you if you did recognize when to stop and when to proceed. This is a very important trait that seperate a gambler and a professional cards player.
