I do totally understand the mentality of a 'quick fix' for the bulk of the baccarat interested players out there.  They are susceptible to the superiority of the author that publishes a book with a fixed, simple, method of beating the casino.  I have to admit, hearing what they say to me in PM's, emails and a few phone calls, they are totally susceptible to being taught how to literally beat the casino for $20.00 or $50.00 or even more.  They have no experience or little experience and that is what will lead them to generally one of two things or both.

1)  Falling prey to numerous authors of books and gambling systems that on-their very best days will work sometimes.  The buyer will pour money into the casinos with countless losses, all in the hopes that the buyer just really doesn't understand the system and needs to perfect his understanding of it or he is just unlucky.  The sad part really is, not the $50.00 or $200 or the $500 the player spent on the needless publications twisting various forms of gambling fallacies around, it is their lost bank rolls of their savings and funds they actually did lose on those false hopes published. 

2)  Blindly gambling with no knowledge and the player's refusal to educate himself in all the pitfalls, downfalls, fallacies and intricacies of the game.  He once again has countless losses and he continues his attempts to recover his lost fortunes and becomes more and more aggravated, frustrated and desperate falling prey once again to con-men type of authors of books based on gambling fallacies turned inside out providing false hopes to the gambler and systems sellers that are also of the same aura as the author.

Yep!
Firstly.... I remember reading two posts from different gambling authors on their respective forums and they both said that they had to keep the systems they sold simple so that most of their customers would understand them! What does that say about them and unfortunately their customers?

Secondly....It's a fair assumption that none of these guys have ever stepped foot in a casino and parted with their own money, or at least, they certainly don't play the methods they publish! Why do I say that? Because most of the books they write only talk about one trigger! What's the difference between their trigger or any trigger you could come up with yourself? None really and they try and disguise the weakness of a single trigger with progression xyz in the hope that it will at least hold out for a little while.

I was watching an old John Patrick video on Youtube the other day and my sides were hurting. The nice guys from Harrah's decided to let Patrick walk in and teach the gambling public how to come in and take all their money. So I decided to google Stanford Wong, James Grojsean...etc and see if they had any similar videos. Well, I couldn't find any, lol. I came to the conclusion a long time ago that most of the Casino gambling books are probably sponsored directly by the Casino's themselves. It's just a continual regurgitation of Martingale this and Labouchere that. All these books are a steal at around $20 giving away the holy grail. I don't know where Grosjean gets his pricing from but around 2k for a second hand copy is daylight robbery and you can't even find a copy. It's a good job the 'holy grail' books are mass produced and cheap!

Stanford Wong's books on blackjack, sports betting and dice are available for less than $10.00 in Amazon.

Don't know why Mr. Wong is using a yellow name.  He's white.

WIKPEDIA: The name "Stanford Wong" is a pseudonym; the author's real name is John Ferguson. His first choice for a pen name was "Nevada Smith," but that name had been taken. "Stanford Wong" was selected by a friend in the PhD program by taking his alma mater as his first name and an Asian last name to provide the "mystique of the Orient".[6][7]

Wong resides in La Jolla, California with his wife. They have two grown children who are both college graduates and married. Wong's company Pi Yee Press is now based in Las Vegas.[8]

I also do not believe in any systems. I fully believe martingale will crash and burn , so what i have been doing is , Have a lots of Bankroll. 

A lot of bankroll i mean , 4000 Pounds , I aim for 100 pound. that's all . ( i play online so no gas fee and time consuming so i aim to do 20 days / month ) this month i did 20 day already so total i have extra 2000 pounds  on top of my salary.

so i hope to do for 10 month so that's 20000 extra per year.  the hardest is the first few days, you see like you have 4000 pounds and first 4 day you only have extra 300 ... you want more . It is so hard to control yourself. but when its been on for more than 2 weeks , you feel like wow that's a lot off 100 pounds extra for 14 day. Hopefully i can reach my goal .
