There are numerous edges at many of the games, especially BJ, Poker and Baccarat.  Problem the highest majority runs into is the willpower-patience and time they play. 

There is no way to consistently beat the games, cannot and was never done and will never be done by anything but a very few that combine their knowledge--willpower--discipline and extremely short time playing on a non-consistent basis.

Actually Roulette is easier to beat than any 50/50 only table game. That is my opinion because the 2/1 bets are far more opportunistic in Roulette. There is a mathematical based phenomenon that exists inside the balance point of two to one events that are in your favor if you know how to exploit them. But that takes overcoming human nature, fallacies, ignorance, and magical beliefs, not to mention chemical phenomenon that diminishes the capacity to utilize the logic centers of your mind.

This comment makes much sense to me, nonetheless when playing 2 to 1 roulette situations you're forced to overcome a more than double house edge (2.70%).
Taking into account the pros and cons, imo, baccarat offers better opportunities to the player.

I see many win, win repeatedly and when they do give it back or lose it is generally because they played too long that day/session, etc.  Yes, baccarat is beatable to a certain aspect, but not consistently and over the long term on a daily full time basis.  And, baccarat cannot be beat using a set of numbers that are used for every shoe, every day, every table, every casino----can't work to the positive, no way, sorry, does not exist.

Hi Al.

You mentioned many times the "daily" sessions.
I agree.
Even at bj while playing positive situations after counting cards we know we'll have losing days, weeks or months. 

And even the statement "playing too long" is quite interesting: now we know that after a given winning sequence or daily winning session we are more often than not destined to lose.
Why not taking as our starting betting point certain strong losing or winning sequences on either side?

After all many of us are there to win not to have fun.

And remember one of the best 21 card counter of all time once got clipped for a 1500 units drawdown! That's why I always stress the importance of having a nice fat bankroll to back yer play, hey hey.
