A card counting system
Card counting doesn't work at baccarat, right?
Not necessarily.
Some time ago I've picked up this interesting method involving a card counting technique along with simple math features that gave us some valuable hints. After innumerable tests, we've modified it in such a way:
9 = +12
8 = +10
7 = +7
6 = +5
5 = +8
4 = +8
3 = +2.5
2 = +2.5
A = +1
10s and Paints = 0
Differently to any other card counting method where the sum is 0, here card values only add up giving some totals.
Our range of interest considers a cutoff point after 2/3 of hands are dealt (ties included of course).
Thus we assume that 50 hands dealt are a fair way to take such 2/3 percentage trigger.
Rules
1) We'll consider to bet only whether after 50 hands dealt the total sum is restricted within the 952-1180 range.
2) In the previous 50 hands shoe sample, Player results had to come out more by even winning points than odd winning points.
In the relatively unlikely situation that P even winning points = P odd winning points, we may still consider to bet if the total sum approaches the low end of the 952-1180 range (average point is 1066)
3) The initial burnt card must be counted.
4) For obvious reasons, lower the initial burnt card is more reliable will be our counting.
Naturally it's a wise move not to play at those casinos which like to cut down from the play many cards, anyway as long as less than one deck is unplayable we're doing good.
What to bet if all of the above conditions are fulfilled.
In the remaining 25 or so hands, there's a substantial math propensity to get Banker side not forming heavy negative outliers, meaning that at this 25 hands 'conditioned' sample Banker side will get a fair number of winning hands over the possible total outcomes.
Notice that this doesn't mean the Banker will get more winning hands than losing hands, just that sd values will be way more restricted than expected.
This is the only exception to step away from a strict flat betting scheme as now we have reasons to adopt a kind of progressive plan (multilayered multiple step schemes).
Disadvantages of such a system
1) Shoes fulfilling all the above parameters are rare to happen.
Even if the maximum limit of total sum range stays around an average value, best opportunities come out at the lower end of such range and they are quite unlikely to happen.
Think that at baccarat more odd points than even points are made and we need a sort of inversion distribution to show up at Player side.
2) Possible numerous ties happening at this 25 hands segment could dilute a favourable conditional probability up to a point where we may find ourselves to be stuck without the room to get a fair number of winning hands.
We've found out that this is the very threat of such a system.
3) The indispensable tool to observe the shoe right at the start of it.
An opposite line of thought could orient us to think that whenever such conditions aren't fulfilled (it happens on the majority of the times) Player side will be more likely to get the same opposite propensity but our tests have clearly shown that this kind of reasonment is untrue.
Mostly for the odd/even points math nature of bac outcomes.
