Very nice look.

Well done.

As I've been playing online baccarat for many, many years now, I'll have to kind of go against the grain here.

Obviously any of the online RNG games are to be avoided even if they are perfectly legitimate, the idea of wagering against a "neutral" computer just doesn't appeal to me nor do I get a warm and fuzzy feeling about it at all.

With that said, I have no problem playing online baccarat WITH LIVE DEALERS that are verified with background video and a good record of payments to winning players.

I'm lucky in that my normal online casino has been in business for a very long time and I've personally not had any problems with them at all.

There is a leap of faith you may have to take in order to get your account "OK'ed" for deposits and payments but once you're through that hassle, it can be a good way to play.

I've found that I really don't like being at a table with boorish players, dirty chips moving back and forth and the travel time to and from the casino.   A leisurely hour at a comfortable table with my papers at the ready, and in a smoke free environment, works out better for me.

Wow.

Was just sitting here and played that shoe.  What a beauty!

It's kind of odd these days.

Most, if not all of the various gambling type forums have become sanctuary sites for people who will complain about anything, and do it in a loud and continuous voice that never ends.  These people used to get warned, then banned for basically not playing well with others.  Not it appears that you are rewarded for being about to out shout and out gross the next guy.

The incessant junk about the WWVegas site has been going on FOR YEARS with the same few people rehashing over and over about how bad it is.

But they continue to go there in spite of it being horrible, according to them.   It's really is comical to read what they post.  These are supposed to be adults, and successful (if you believe their tales) gamblers!

Several years ago almost every gambling site had it's own dedicated group of individuals who really played and studied the game, be it roulette, baccarat and to a smaller amount even craps.

Now it's merely whining about somebody else and ZERO actual gambling discussion.

Luckily there are still a few who continue to play, continue to show a profit year after year, and just read along, all the while taking a step back and asking "Do I really want to get involved with some of these people?"

Not here, but the other sites are really a cesspool of human waste for inhabitants.

I hate to bring up an old subject but just found this link today on our old friend Steven Tabone!!

Yes, I know it's to another site, but he's still writing and plugging his book at the end of the neutral article.

Al,

I see now that I had misunderstood the original challenge you posted.

Sorry for the confusion on my part.

Captain,
                        Strangely whenever I put anything like this, smarties start telling that they would have not played it as if they knew before hand as to when bad bets will start to ruin them or if they can pick the bet in any particular manner that bad stretches can not come. Unfortunately, even veterans like Captain whom I have been seeing myself for more than a decade on forums think and speak like this, making me feel very bad.

Al,

   I'm not trying to make you feel bad.  We've been around here long enough to respect each other's ideas.

   You posted up a sequence of events and I responded to them with my results and how they came about.

   If you were asking to find a way to wager on PLAYER for that session, then that's a different problem for sure.

   As well, you know, ANY session with a huge imbalance on one side should always produce a profit.   Well, unless you're attempting to play the short side instead of what the shoe is presenting.

   I see another shoe you've posted with a huge imbalance to one side.   I see no reason that beating that sequence, starting anywhere in or around it, won't produce a profit.

  Perhaps I've not read the problem correctly but any lopsided shoes like you've posted should never be a problem.

  AD

Perfect timing!   I was sitting at the desk today and saw your message.  Grabbed a copy of the results, dropped them into a spreadsheet and ran a few plays.

Applied two simple plays to it and came up with.....

A plain FTL with a two stop loss, flat betting = +26.

A simple "follow the last two trend" with a two stop loss, flat betting = +10.

I believe the longest string of losing wagers was 5.


On the two stop loss, you'll wait for a win before starting back in wagering.

I'll run a few others on it and see how they look later.

Hello all, just joined the board.

My game is craps and I've been doing the DI thingy for around 7 years now.

AJ

Welcome aboard.

My brother's main game is craps and I cannot convince him to give baccarat a try.   I'll try again this year when we meet up in August "up north".

More even spread between Sports section - Slot section - Roulette section - Baccarat section among others.

Invite famous people to get life into the forum board, they get advertisement and new followers and the discussion will take place in different areas.

For example Roulettman on Youtube - he makes videos about systems and selections and general talk bout roulette.
Make him or you post his videos on forum and give him exporsure.
Reckon he will take part in discussions about videos and genaral gambling talk.
At the moment he making a new video about scams online casinos and those has been cheated - contact him.

Slotlady has Youtube channel with many followers, Facebook, Twitter, Youtube, Patreon.
And live stream sessions online and real casino with Twitch among other things.
She might like forum board exposure.

I belive there is great bunch of Youtubeers and others who could bring life into this forum, but if they get there own sections the spread and space between different categories has to be even and not one game dominant.
I think this could be a new great set up for forum.

Make list of people with many followers and you will draw anttention to this forum.

Cheers

Sputnik,

  I do believe you've hit the sweet spot with regards to opening up this forum.   Some pretty good ideas there.

  AD

I see that the bot Aramis has recently changed "brokers" and is now promoting a new one.

As most Forex players are/were losing casino gamblers who seem to think Forex is an easier way to make a fortune, we'll probably let these stupid Forex threads continue for now.

AD

It would be nice to see Stephen show up and let us know how version 3.x is going as it was going to be a HUGE upgrade from the huge upgrade to version 2.

AD

Now that it is December I think it's safe to say Merry Christmas to all from the Florida contingent.

AD

Ah yes, this was an interesting thread while it lasted.

Stephen was so dead serious about his methods but literally everyone who tried to test it reported it to be pretty lame, but at least the advertising was good!

I kind of miss those days of being excited to read his latest breathless win story.

AD

I was going to download the file and see how it looks but the requirement to use a credit card for the "free download" was enough to probably just convince me to read it page by page and test when I actually have the time to waste without the download to comfortably read and test.

Thanks for the offer though.
