Baccarat Hall of Fame Member kachatz1 Posted August 11, 2014 Baccarat Hall of Fame Member Report Share Posted August 11, 2014 Hey, MDB members-Wish I could have been on The Crawl Saturday, but previous commitments kept me away...( 90 miles away, at Lake Mojave, waterskiing!)So, how was it? Now is the time to spread the word about MDB and how it is the way to play...Thanks for the update and good luck to all!Kevin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted August 14, 2014 Report Share Posted August 14, 2014 Think that you saved a bunch of money also!Well don't get the wrong idea Baccarat A. Contributers total contribution to the combined bank was only 2 chips - which lasted 2 shoes. We played a hell of a lot more shoes than that. I played about 20 and won every one EXCEPT the 2 shoes I played with my hands tied to MDB+. Most shoes were MDB+ shoes, but the 2 shoes wherein we played the combined bank were decidedly NOR shoes - incredibly bad luck. Monday Dean played with me keeping score and dictating his bets. It was an S40M1 shoe. Dean went straight to +6 with only 2 bets of 2 and the rest 1's.He went straight to +6 in only 8 bets, lost 1 and quit at +5 in only 9 bets total. Hard to beat that. So he was down 2 units on my play in the crawl. He ended up +3 on my play.Art and I were both also down 2 chips for the crawl but +10 by day's end. We also won on Friday, but Sunday was our best day by far. Kachaz1 is a good player. He certainly didn't save any money by not attending the crawl. Two chips isn't the end of the world you know.

Baccarat Hall of Fame Member kachatz1 Posted August 14, 2014 Author Baccarat Hall of Fame Member Report Share Posted August 14, 2014 Good to hear it was a profitable weekend overall. My observation concerning preshuffled cards, whether here in Vegas or elsewhere, is this:Very little has changed.Table Selection, System Selection, and Money Management ( stop loss, stop win, progression application) still the essential ingredients for a winning session...and all good cooks " change up the recipe " ever so slightly periodically, in order to keep their best customers coming back...When approaching the game, we all need a clearly defined " Plan A". ( just make sure to bring along "Plan B" , because you are likely to use it more often than you might think) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted August 15, 2014 Report Share Posted August 15, 2014 That is our player Art in the blue shirt playing spot 6 next to Keith looking on. He played strictly MDB+ at that NO TOUCH table all day Sunday. He was winning big playing quarters Sunday morning so Keith and I bought in with him so he could go to black. He was up big time when these pics were taken. - about $1200 on the table. He would later get to $1500 up. That is patience for ya!Look at Art's chips compared to everyone else at the table. That's a pro for ya!This demonstrates that MDB+ does very well with replayed preshuffled cards - maybe even better than new preshuffled cards.So see that - Keith and I did the same thing on Sunday that many of you did on Saturday. We bought into Art's play at $200 each. It was kinda boring watching Art play so Keith and Dean and I walked over to Margaritaville and drank a few Margaritas. Then Art showed up with a huge handful of money for us. Hey, why play when you can make good money drinking Margaritas?Then we went downtown and I played some traditional BJ. I played about a dozen tables and beat every single one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
