"Playing baccarat for a living is very very difficult the like is very very difficult to be long term winners at poker or bj, both games proven to be beatable.
Most of the time poker or bj players fold or bet the minimum for the profitable situations will be quite rare.
Do we want to do any better playing a game that totally denies every possible advantage?"

The above is from within the OP's thoughts on Page 1.

And very very true. 

I have tried to bring it out several times, I mention, "I witnessed" or "The other night I saw", etc., etc. and so on.  Somehow at the bac table things change, minds and trends change and everything is rushed full speed.  Players doom themselves, repeatedly, even more so than all the other games, IMO.

To earn from something, one needs not beat the same entirely or absolutely. Has someone beaten football or soccer or tennis or boxing?
We need to beat only our opponent and not the game itself. In every game one of the player/team wins and other loses.
       Regarding making a living is concerned, it is tough due to ignorance to handle tough patches which are also obvious part of the game. Most strategies are meant to lose back all at those patches which makes people think it is unbeatable.

Two points. You're absolutely great in your summation.

A first point is my buddy H  Money, he beats himself, he literally, physically beats himself every time he plays if he's not controlled and then if he does listen others, he goes back  and he finishes the job and he beats himself.  I've explained enough about it especially the last round he amazingly pulled off.

The other point is what you said in summation.   I say further about sections and turning points and you're right not beating the game it's like that in most sports,  no?

Great thinking points thanks.
