Defining events that will and do frequently happen is the foremost thing in baccarat a succesful player would desire to do when he is actaully playing.
Live baccarat versus the test or practice game on your computer are two entirely different things whatsoever. I would hjave to liken that comparsion to watching a video of cutting a lawn with a lawnmower and the event of actaully doing the same thing. Different and so many things can aome about but the saem principle.
The problem so many do and expect when they study and study and find their 'gig' or 'key triggers' on the internet, is they set a schedule for themselves for that definitive wagering. Bad, wrong and will not work.
Frame-of-Mind with wide vision to be neutral is a huge player's plus and baccarat player's advantage overlooked by the player's ego, desires and greed as well as his desperation to recoup past losses. The other thing he will offend himself with, is his inability to play all side of baccarat and what the shoe will eventually present. He narrow his thoughts and preceptions to either one of the two most popular things, which is the shoe being extremely strong or weak. He fails to admit it does both sides with a bit of the 'middle' mixed in while it does both sides or it does not do either side.
Vision must be neutral without that typical, strong headed narrow focus in wagering for a certain event, that you are counting on coming out as a result of what happened rather than what is happening or what could happen.
Traditional Vision: What you see and interpret from the past which generally overrules anything else.
Traditional Thought: What you think will happen and suit you best. More desires than actually getting into any kind of real thought.
Traditional Results: What had happened. "Look at what came out", and then basing things on that.
Traditional Realization: The whole scene in totality with limited sight, again thoinking whaty is happening is going to happen, not matter with the shoe presentment or otherwise.
Better Vision: What can form; weak--strong--alternating--doubles--1's 2's and 3's--streaks, anything and everything, etc.
Better Thought: Not limited to one or two sets of anything or your own desires. Most importantly, adding pssoibilities in the correct way tot he thought processing picture.
Better Results: Looking at them and what the total picture is into sections and events, not into a whole shoe or multiple shoes in the attempt to match statistics and long term results.
Better Realization: What has happened, what is yet to happen, what can or can not be 'reasonably' possible, what can happen on a more consistant and regular basis or on an infrequent and limited basis, etc.
Request I had last night, I restored this thread that I put into the recycle bin with thousands of others. Somebody thought it was pretty good and asked me to repost it again.
