    Hello to all.
    A lurker here, always have read what the members have to say, never actually posted anything.

    Baccarat for me has been an up and down journey and I want to improve my play.

    Last to last night, had a great casino night beginning, in Nepal, Asia but after a few drinks bet all the money (principal + 5 times win amount) on the BANKER bet but lost.

    THEREFORE THIS THREAD.

    For STRATEGY purposes I usually use follow the other players and follow the shoe (including follow the chops, if 3 or more).

    For betting purposes, thr first time I had played bac, I had great success, seriously great, so great that I considered using this as a main hustle.

    However, martin has failed me more than I can count.

    Only recently I have started using No Mirror strategy (betting oposite to the last column on the marker board).

    Can someone do a quick analysis for the No Mirror strategy and post comments below, along with some suggestions to pair the strategy out with good money management tips?

    No mirror example

    Marker Road
    Last Column. My bet
    B. P

    Any other general suggestions are more than welcome.

    No mirror won't work long term. Any systems will work for a short while before entering a losing streak. Money management might work if you play a small base unit and have a deep pocket then there's no problem (no martingale though, that stuff is suicidal).

    Well, I agree and therefore kep alternating betting strategies. Since the cards don't have any history and the game is a pure chance, I know that no 'strategy' exists. Randomness coupled with good money management is the holy grail...

    Anyways, personally what is your money management routine? Feel free to share if comfortable.

    Also, I have seen many players simply flat betting, how practical is that?

    Flat betting is fine, you certainly can win that way. Set a reasonable stop win/stop loss (for example +2 or -3 units). If you use progression, try playing the odds or set a deep virtual negative starting point (look at Jae's oscar grind method, however take it as reference, I play another bet selection with a way deeper negative starting point and aim for way fewer units win).

    Start assuming I am already in a loss. Interesting

    No problem, it’s a sure winner. The sooner YOU ago play this with a grand Martybation the better for everyone on this planet.

    If you can’t remotely figure out the bare basic downside for yourself, a small hint , it’s glaringly obvious, then you deserve all the encouragement you can get to make you go to a casinoverse as quickly as humanly possible, take all your finances, your families finances, your local community collective finances and bet max table limits and get the true result you so richly deserve. Your laziness is astonishing and your lack of willingness to do a basic due-diligence of a MINIMUM homework effort is mind boggling.
    Get thee to a casinoverse.

    Hi Alkish!
    This game is full of traps. The same as the texas hold'em poker adage: " a minute to learn and a lifetime to master"

    Anytime we join a table we learn something new and we have lost a lot of money before finding a way to beat it.

    The anti-mirror strategy doesn't work and neither are working progressive plans, so a flat betting procedure will help you to contain the variance at worst.

    I'd suggest you to read Punkcity, Jimskie and Sputnik posts, IMO the best here about the subject.

    BTW, forget to get hints from 'system sellers': without no exception they are pure clowns that have never bet a dime on the game.

    as.

    I agree. Playing and losing appear to be the only way out :/ but I still see many peeps making a lot of dough on bacc tables (especially online) on a daily basis. Always leads me to assume that there is something that I am unaware of.

    Probably you are right, it seems that online players will perfom better than the live counterpart.

    I don't know about that. The good thing about online is that you have multiple tables to choose from. The site I play on has about 70 tables from 1 provider (Evolution) and about 30 tables from another (Pragmatic) and the min bet is small (1-2$ for Evolution and 0.2$ for Pragmatic) so people are able to build their bankroll from a small amount. But most of my success was from B&M casinos though.

    B&M casinos tend to actively engage you in the environment of a/any casino. You tend to play more successfully, atleast physiologically, in a BM casino whereas in online, maybe because of being at the comfort of your bedroom, you tend to take losses more negatively.. idk, just my two cents

    Well I'm a man of discipline. I prepare enough bankroll for the day, win enough according to my guts or lose it all, then just leave. Playing more than what my daily bankroll can handle would often lead to heavy losses in my experience. Also I don't play every day, like 2-3 times per week at best, sometimes I won't play at all. Only play when I'm comfortable.

    Considering that cards have absolutely no memory, I do not see how limiting your time in the casino will be a beneficiary to your gambling. However win or lose and never reinvest is something I appreciate and give you a thumbs up on :D

    I don't know, but I try to not spend as much time in the casino as possible. I don't believe in additional buy ins, once you lose your bankroll it's time to stop, there's always another time for the wins to come.

    Add in a stop loss. Then you'll have a winning approach.
