Example 2

In an even chance there are 4 equally likely outcomes taking 2 decisions at a time, i.e., BB, PP, PB, BP. What is the chance of at least one repeat in 4 decisions (note that this equates to 8 hands, not 4, because each outcome consists of two hands)

N = 4 and r = 4, so

[math]P(repeat)=\frac{4^4(4-4)!-4!}{4^4(4-4)!} = 0.906[/math]

or a little over 90%.

You can find a scientific calculator here.

BB
PP
PB  lose 1 bet
P?   now what

Eirescott posted many years ago, to place the P bet after the PP, and PB outcomes, because if the result is P it then becomes ambiguous therefore a no-bet scenario for which to recoup the prior lost bet.

Either way you will lose more hand per shoe than win, despite the 90% expectation figure.

What is the formula if you include Eirescotts adaptation?

 

How common is the term bull sh1t?  And you get reprimanded for it's use on a gambling web-site?? 

I believe there are four moderators on this board, yet one name was out there constantly, obviously taking their position far too seriously and long since  removed from gaming tables and the perils and joys of which. 


What's up Tangram, with your comment??

I do believe I held a special place in esoito's heart.

Many shared that sentiment.  I guess some have to get that little piece of feeling important from somewhere. 

What irks me, is that this is not a gardening site, it is a gambling site.  Gambling involves both winning and losing MONEY.  With the later, who knows your situation, you might have to go hungry for a while, unable to pay a bill, resort to stealing.  Yet one must not use the word bu11sh1t on thy web-site, get real FFS.

LOL, before eositos departure, you would get severely reprimanded insinuating such a term.

Is it not possible to insert images to posts without the need to host elsewhere?

IF you are referring to the site with the initials B.T.C., then I'm afraid the only "misinformation in this thread" is yours.

Say what??

I wasn't referring to B.T.C,

What is being promulgated at that site is, IMHO, outright rubbish.  All they've succeeded to do is to hoodwink their followers into believing that you can anticipate a shoe's results simply by counting up certain differences in certain EC chances.  Hogwash.  Won't work; all you'll succeed in doing is to frustrate the living heck out of yourself with your constant shifting.

Yes I agree

Oh, and for all of that baloney, THEY CHARGE A FEE! [/quote] No worries, there are no fees.

A lot of misinformation in this thread.  There was and still a VG Baccarat forum on the web, which is better than anything that appears on any public forum.  everything is laid out and explained, the mod is helpful and will go to great lengths to explain how he plays.   You won't find this information on the usual open public web-sites as they attract dishonest members,

He is not just some moderator who runs a web forum, rather somebody who plays Baccarat for a living, so he knows what he is doing and is doing it himself.  He is on an overseas tour of casinos at the mo, yup playing Baccarat and is keeping his members updated.
