Take them to heart, ignore them, call me silly, recognize them and explore, whatever floats your boat as the saying goes.
But, I will tell you one thing. My years of playing bac have ultra reinforced me to believe in and abide by the following:
* A shoe in time. Is relatively short.
* Nothing is guaranteed.
* Everything will change again. The good or bad situation is here now, it changes. There are basically 14 presentment trends, most of all appear in most all shoes. Picking one, two or even three of those will be suicide.
* Change your responses. The presentments will not change your wagers. Your wagering must change and conform to the presentments. Huge difference.
* You will NEVER have all the answers.
* There is NO HOLY GRAIL. Period!
* Be super careful of bringing today's societal aura of 'Instant Everything' to the bac table. It will bite you the highest majority of the times.
Good list.

What are the 14? thx in advance.

I concur.
"...be super careful of bringing today's societal aura of 'Instant Everything' to the bac table...."
Yes indeed. The key IMO regardless of how one may choose to attack the shoe:
Patience/Discipline and be willing to watch/wait for that EV+ spot. There may only be a few (3-5 spots) in many shoes.
Continued Success,

1 Side Extreme Reduction 3rd Card (Repetitive)
Equalization
1 Side Complete Domination (with singles occurring from opposite side)
1 Side Heavy Building 3rd Card (Repetitive)
1 Side Extreme Reduction 3rd Card (Repetitive)
As already sayed some time ago, those couple of factors originally described by Alrelax are particularly interesting to be assessed actually (the present shoe) but either in their long term volume distribution.
Providing a careful assessment, they are so powerful that we can even accept to bet the underdog side (the lower two card initial point) or the opposite of the favorite side (the higher two card initial point) as 3rd card(s) will make many "repetitive" lines disregarding common math values for "quite" long or at least for some "math unsound" situations.

I think this has some merit as a benchmark(especially if used in tandem with other related triggers).
And here is just one example I'm not gonna go too much into detail because of the responses are next to nothing from all the readers.
So, I'm gonna save most of my pictures but I just want to bring out a point and here is a perfect example of almost all naturals cut. What a friggin trigger to make a quick 10K! Simple, period.
Lots more tricks of the trade but with the readership not engaging, I'm going to hold back many more pictures I got from the last few weeks of play. And I do have lots more pictures of actual score boards and table tops with the wagers, but the effort and the time to edit and post I feel is just a waste at this point.
