Baccarat Is Baccarat Forum Dying?

Full disclosure I too took the big stick to spike but that was because of his inane dribble across various threads , his out of context posts ( deliberately hijacking’s) and his blatant hypocrisy, when he first started posting here November ish last year.

I’m on the record as saying I don’t continue a conversation with him because I truly believe I was taking advantage of someone with a mental disposition and it was just cruel.

I’m also on record as saying he is very good at roulette and how he goes about doing what he posts. I do often support and like his roulette comments, some gambling wisdom.

The rest is just mindless pap imho, and if he wants to sprout it well that is his prerogative and I don’t engage with his obvious off med posts that slip in every 20 days or so.

As for you, judge, perhaps someone “hacked” your account as you opinion and comments to me are less than ideal, you only posted 250 ish posts, have a scroll, maybe you could find who hacked your account.

No hard feelings on my part , I always give better than I get. I have given you the velvet glove slap on a few occasions, so alls fare and no apologies wanted nor offered.

You want to be civil, I can do civil, it doesn’t mean we actually have to like each other. I actually don’t like a lot of people on this forum but I have the grace to be able to acknowledge valuable input , posts and information they provide. The spike paragraph above pretty much covers that topic.

Speaking of trabone, he must be due for his annual cycle through this forum, historical posts by him show may and June are his favourite months here this forum. Lol that if he posts now.
Cheers

 

Yes that must be the height of baccarat book selling season for Trabone.

 

Abo ut books Mr Tamburin and Mr. Jo hn Patrick did not promise the Rose Garden.


Baccarat is a game of Luck not of strategy. A money mgy game .

 

BT^W Ladies and Gentlemen do not mention the 5 % commission . Don t advertise your strategy .

 

Just don’t post anymore, how about you try texting while you drive into oncoming traffic, problem solved, world is much better place.

 

From what I seen most cats only interested in baccarats bulls-shits, rather than baccarats realities, hey hey.

 

No cats are left to keep this forum alive . A flip of the cards ? Yawn .

 

A base bet of $ 20 , or EU . or B P S should give a BR of 2, 400 to begin with .

 

Greetings:
Is there another forum that is drawing everyone's attention?

 

Not every one is married to one casino game, Variety is the spice of life .

Ot is either B or P.

What is there to discuss ?


A game of This or That . A consequential bet .

 

Greetings:
Yes I agree.
I haven't played Bacc at a B&M Casino for 2 years or more. I've spent my time working on strategies using player cards and wizard of odds. Hopefully next week I will be at the Baccarat table once again.

 

Can’t really agree.
Prime source of income from table games should be always rated as what you are most skilled at to least skilled at. I would not necessarily take advice from a craps player on how to play baccarat and vice versa. There are monkeycats this forum that are good at roulette but shite at baccarat, some methods /principles of bet exposure , entry timing etc maybe similar but the actual machinations of success in baccarat is suspect.

In short, find your forte in a particular game and hone your skills, play other games to let off steam (at a hugely reduced bet unit , a slutty day as posted other threads ) one size shoe doesn’t fit all. Cheers

 

Apples to oranges......One has to ask if they are there for fun or proffit. If your there for fun definitely learn more than one game.
Nathan is a John Patrick disciple. Patrick's entire learning curve was not on winning but losing less. Not a bad way to look at it for entertainment purposes. Something Nathan used to put on a lot of posts. Entertainment purposes. While claiming to be a professional gambler Patrick outed himself not on purpose but, by arguing and typing faster than he could think at the time. That he was a fraud. No big deal typical for an author. His advice could still save an amateur a lot of money.

While you disagree with him and you have every right. Nathan is 100% correct on learning more than one game. If your visiting a casino for a couple days playing what game is winning with what you do with it is great for the enoyment of being there.. Trying to stay in the 50 50 range also gives you the best chance of some if not limited success.

As for what I learned on the Patrick web board. More was learned from Washoo2 and FS that I keep with me to this day and not so much from the JP books. They were good reads for someone with no game knowledge but once you start to get a clue worthless. But just like how this boards members are looking for the simple answer. That's why so many gobbled up the garbage Jae was posting. Judge lists him as a real player. That makes me wonder if indeed he was a Judge. Sorry dude but it shows a huge lack of judgement.

One of my last posts was on the subject of JK and SF and was deleted. It wasn't much and I did not talk down anybody but was deleted with no reasoning why. So thats why I quit.... I can't speek for others.

The fantasy players will always continue to post. People really aren't that interested in real stuff.....

 

Just to back onto your reply Porky, real players who are not looking for the easy way out study and research and test to find what’s right for them. If you’re not looking to put any work into it, how do you expect to be disciplined enough to be successful? Sure there’s a lot of luck involved and these casinos aren’t built on the achievements of winners. Therefore there is no “catch all” or easy solution. Ideas that float around here can help you figure out your game if you want to play it seriously. But no one idea is going to work all the time. It needs to be incorporated into an overall game plan in order to successfully - even marginally and in a grind - win at any casino game. Find the one that’s best for you. For me, it’s roulette and blackjack. But I’m putting in the time with baccarat in the event that I become comfortable and confident enough to play it. It has a low HE so why not try to learn it? I stink at it so I don’t play but I’m working on it.

 

I am a recreational player but playing like a pro with discipline .


One foot always pointing towards the door .

 

My bad
I was speaking from a professional point of view.

I sometimes forget that many poster here don’t go casinoverse on a daily basis and are most likely very part time ( annual holiday, odd weekends with weeks , possibly months between visits etc) .

Then I guess that they can again be sub classified as
The Pure recreational ,( looks to fill that gap in their emotions) in for the excitement etc, save a wad of dough and going to alar bucket list style everything, hotel, drinks, food, hey could be lucky this year. But I don’t think that is the average poster here, mho

The Half a brainer. This poster has been reading/watching YouTube, movies, forums etc. played a few slots, played blackjack has wisenedup a bit but found a new betting strategy called the Marty, the holy grail. That poster works saving a wad to go to the casinoverse and break their bank and take it home for himself he/she probably going roulette or baccarat, I mean it’s red or black , hi or lo, banker or player cannot get simpler than that can you ? , the Marty will always win. Oh always looking for the holy grail from anyone they interact with, hence the huge uptick in traffic on forums such as this every now and then . Lol if you swapped out the posters name and created a generic database of the same repetitive posts made here , the new posters could just really copy and paste their own name on the post and post here . They obviously don’t read old threads, and why should they, lol. ( also looking for something to fill that emotion gap)

The Degen gambler goes every weekend after payday bets on anything and everything gets lucky or not. Has not the faintest clue other than some urban myth that’s on a continuous loop in that loose definition of a mind. Hardly need to explain that monkeycatagorie, you get the drift. ( another emotional gap seeker)

The Grandiose simjunki, Groundhog Dayer . they spend entire lifetime running sims on various methods by hand or on the laptop. For whatever reason they eventually go to a casinoverse they lose, generally again baccarat and roulette, go back home and start another sim retro fitting the lost session to make it right, then go back to the casinoverse, set and repeat . ( ditto emotional etc)

The Lame one trick ponie, they only play carrabine stud, Mississippi stud, 3card poker, etc hey it’s just luck to them , my $1 might win the jackpot . ( same same emotional band aid)

There is no reason in my opinion as a professional to dabble in any game other than the one game you are adept at, my game being baccarat. I can and do on occasions cross over to roulette , but not for reasons of fun. I’m purely interested in the profit aspect only. I never go to the casinoverse with friends that go for a fun night out, I get completely bored in that environment, I don’t even go there for dinner functions, big sports events etc. I want fun or recreational dopamine bursts I do something completely different away from the casinoverse. Im aware of all the house edge on every game, I’m aware of the pro and cons every game it’s not rocket science, I’m aware so called AP make some sort of living from that procedure, ( not for me).

I’ve seen very intelligent people, doctors, lawyers, judges etc (mostly called magistrates here ) , that have no clue when it comes to gambling as a professional , they are are professional in their own field, have to respect that imho. But in the casinoverse they are just like any other wingnut kicking tyres at a used car yard. If I break my arm I will see a doctor etc. They unfortunately may not have the same ability to differentiate between the good or not so good “supposed expert” on a forum. There are plenty of dealers here that are just as clueless, that pretty much says it all. If you deal all day every day and come here and post the tripe they post , got to make you wonder how they have come to their cocknanny ideas after being saturated with the pure facts they deal day in day out.

For the discerning reader there is a wealth of information this forum from various posters to enable one to become more professional if one wants too. This information can be gleamed from many threads , even from some of the suspect posters that post here on occasion they do in fact post a valuable tidbit of information, one just has to be sharp enough to catch it.

Equally there are a huge amount of non discerning readers here . These people unfortunately also post and by doing so compound to adding to the mishmash of disinformation, half baked dross and the enabling self styled holy grail wannabe guru’s.

The eternal snake eating its own tail , in the thirst of knowledge what happens in forums like this on the interverse is the constant byproduct one must deal with.
Cheers

 

Baccarat is worthwhile, sic bo equally so . The latter is more time consuming to master. So I went with baccarat as primary source. Commish or 1/2 price six bank is just the cost of doing business. Roulette is a secondary , treat zero as just another loss no more no less if playing purely ec and just a cost of doing business. Here in skipptophia blackjack is no longer a functional stream of income due to automatic continuous shuffle machine.

Agree you can put together adequate information from this forum to become a professional player. Unfortunately most are unable to put the mileage in that’s required and will always return to this forum to blame the messengers rather than their own lack of ability. Cheers

 

@Punkcity completely agree. Most people on the forum are looking for the easy way out. Not me. The only way I know for sure that I can attempt to beat a game is put in that mileage. It’s tough and sometimes tedious but it’s worthwhile. And I agree about going to the casino with friends in a social gathering. It’s too much to keep up with especially when I have targets and goals whenever I’m in the casino and other people not there for the same purpose outs too many distractions on me and it’s just not fun. Let’s say though that I find my table and I get into a good flow, almost inevitably, someone in my party will disrupt it however they do it, and I get flustered and irritated. At that point I have to get up or I will certainly lose. That is a discussion for another day, but yes I rarely go with friends. I’m there for one reason and one reason only: to attempt to win. Not to laugh or go to a show etc. This is why I don’t like Vegas so much as it is full of distractions, which we know is the whole goal for them. To distract you from taking money from them.

I go to quieter casino towns where the distractions are a minimum and I can go there to play not to entertain myself.

Great response!

 

One has to have a thick skin to post here for sure. I noticed in your other post you bet the dragon side bet. That bet has a really high house edge, more like a slot machine or worse. If you will learn how to selectively bet Banker / Player (favoring Banker) you will be better off in the long run. Good luck to you.

 

Good post. The reasons you post are imho some of the reasons I use to steer myself to that unfashionable ( by many this forum) reasoning to only flat bet a high value unit.

The point being I can get up and walk with no hesitation whatsoever. If I’m down 5 loses for example is just 5 flat bet units. If I’m running a ladder being down 5 loses can equate to 15 units ( give or take) on has more angst riding on the “decided to leave now” ( for any reason you discussed) which can lead to fatal errors of judgment creeping into your long term playing style.
