I know that handsome devil!

If I recall correctly, The Crickets had a big hit with "That'll Be the Day." Fitting.

I've been using NOR for 2 months now (to the day) and have since dropped the OR count in favor of visually reviewing the shoe for 1's, 2's etc to determine what system I should be in.
Hmmm...Sounds a bit like SAP now, doesn't it?

Hey Oz - don't hold anything back. Tell us how you really feel!

At least if this is NOR forum lets keep it like that so it's easier for poor soul like me who hasn't find anything useful in the manual and now is trying to sift through all the posts hoping there might be something useful to learn.
thank you
"Hasn't found anything useful in the manual"????????
What manual are you reading?
The NOR manual is a fount of information. READ IT! I mean READ IT. Don't just skim it and look at the pictures. READ IT.
It will take several readings. After you read it, study it. If you haven't found anything useful you have not read it.
Until you read it properly, please do me and many other members a favor and stop your incessant whining. Read it and study it
and then come back with some intelligent questions, if that is a possibility for you. Ellis has said many times that there are no
stupid questions. There are, however, stupid people.

IBS is like a Marty. You keep raising your bet after a loss to the point where you could be betting huge units to win one.

Team,
I booked the team ( Yes Vicky will be there for those who only come to see her) for the 4D Seminar that is scheduled for Feb 8th 2014. That is a Saturday in Feb. It always helps us if you book early so we know what to expect. Remember to use the discount code as a legacy NOR player: NORPLAYERS
This reduces the registration fee to $250.00 Bucks.
This seminar will be a big one with all the participation we are having. If someone who signs up could grab Ellis when he get's there I'd appreciate it as we will be getting there a bit later in the day than when he arrives. Zebra?
I will drive him to our hotel. I arrive at about the same time

I have to agree. I am at the point where I don't bother to read his posts because
I have yet to read one that makes sense or contributes to anyone's learning.
Fortunately, I spend most of my forum time in the private area, so I don't have
to deal with his drivel.

Hello all, newbie here. Can someone explain to me what it means to bet OTR? I know it means on the run, but what exactly does it entail?
I'm sure that knowing this will make understanding modes a lot easier.
Betting on the run just means betting that the run will continue. So if there was BBBB your OTR bet would be B.

How can 3s and 4s occur with the same frequency, i.e. once every 16 plays?
After all, since 3s is a shorter streak wouldn't it occur more often than 4s?
Please explain.
Sincerely,
sakana
It's not 4's - it's 4 or mores.
We note that as 4+

No computers would also mean no Beat the Casino! How in the world would we
be able to win at baccarat?

I believe the manual comes with the class at no additional charge.
Brendan was trying to say that it is easy to lose $800 when you
are not playing properly. NOR will get you playing properly. It is
well worth whatever you pay. You will win it all back quickly, maybe
even your first time playing it.

I don't know why you are so concerned about Dave and what he has to say.
What kind of a following does he have? How many bac players actually read
his stuff. I certainly never would have until he started following you around.
Why waste time and energy answering his drivel. Just let him go back to his
hole and blog to his small group of toadies. He isn't worth the effort.

paul, in shoe 3 you only have 19 hands on the first line ??
Can't believe you actually counted them all, and that I didn't make any
other errors. The shoe is correct - just miscounted my cut off.
And Ellis - you had the scotch, or should I say scotches!

Paul, that first one that started with an early 9iar would be a good one.
I think this is the one you are talking about:
P1131111122912333123331
We entered on the 3rd hand of the 9iar and went to -8 before
coming back to finish at +4 only because we started making
SAP bets on the 3's. This was the first shoe at GC after the
seminar.

I want to give you an example of what we were up against.
An unnamed person (Keith) told Me and Ellis that we should
play at Luxor because the shoes were very choppy and we
should be able to kill them. So we went to Luxor. It was
early afternoon and there was only one table and nobody
was playing (red flag). We started a new shoe. (My scanner
is down so I can't post it). The shoe began like this:
P B B P P B B B P
We jumped in on the second hand and played OTB4L. At
the end of the 9th hand (above) we were +5 and were having
visions of one of those +40 shoes. The next hands were:
B P B B P B
So of course OTB lost and we switched to S40 and won the
last two hands above, but were now only +2. Then we got
hit by this:
B B B P B B B P P P
We did not stick around to see what followed. If we switched
to F we might have won some of the last hands, but there was
no warning - no 2 ever went to 3. And who is to say if the streaks
would continue. If we went back to OTB we might have won a few,
but what indicated that we should switch back. Even in hindsight
this was impossible to play.
My point is that this shoe typifies what Vegas is putting out there.
Not everything is this bad and we managed to win more than we
lost and come out with a little profit, but every shoe was a grind.

I totally agree with Ellis. I have never seen conditions so hard to beat. If you play at
a table where you are starting a new shoe you have to assume the cards are new and
pre-arranged (a better term than pre-shuffled.) One particular shoe where Ellis left down
8 I was going to leave as well, but I was sitting next to a student and decided to stick
around to help. After a couple of wins I decided to jump back in because the shoe was
changing. It became an OTB shoe and I wound up +8. I consider these pre-arranged cards
to be cheating by the casino and should be banned.
The Vegas trip was enjoyable and a little profitable. It was nice meeting the other players
and comparing notes and war stories. And it's always great to pick the brain of the master.

Ask him if he has an Uncle Ellis.

You know, it's not just a joke. We actually do fart more with age! Maybe God figured we need to be jet propelled at our age.
What a relief to hear that. I thought it was just me!

the ungrateful sod called me a crazy old bastard That makes 2 of us on BTC ...eh Ellis.lol
Only 2???? You obviously haven't been around here long enough!

There have been many versions of scorecards developed to fit our method of play
and I'm sure they are available somewhere in this forum. I have been using one
myself for years and always bring a supply with me when I play. I have never received
and grief from dealers or pit bosses about this. As far as putting information on them,
anyone can add their own reminders on their cards. However, my feeling is that if you
need a 'cheat sheet" you really should not be playing for real money yet. You need to
practice enough so that any information you might want to put on your card should be
in your head. I'm sure the casinos would encourage players to bring in "cheat sheets."
That just proves to the casinos that the player is not ready to play.

I never heard of a cruise ship that had baccarat.
