Engage In No Obstacles

Ego becomes an influence. When influenced at Baccarat most all players begin making the wrong decisions, which will become a huge liability to themselves.

Unfortunately without them realizing just that, they begin to lose. They compound their poor decisions with making additional poor decisions through the added pressure and stress, attempting to recover the lost wagers. This is the point most players get to rather quickly in the game.

Here are the five pro and cons about obstacles which I have defined over the years and it always works out through one form or another to be spot on with the below chart or darn close.

THE 2 SIDES TO JUST ABOUT EVERYONES PLAYING NO MATTER YOUR EXPERIENCE AND SKILL LEVEL.  SAY NOT ME AND YOU JUST HAVE NOT PLAYED ENOUGH YET.

PRO                                                    CON

1)  Clear Frame of Mind                    1)  Blurred Frame of Mind

2)  Intuitive                                         2)  Dicey

3)  Common Sense                            3)  Wishful Thinking

4)  Readability (Aware & Using)          4)  Desperately Wagering 

5)  Capitalizing on Good Sections      5)  Scared to Wager

Easier said than accomplished at the table. Seems like there are two sides, one the atmosphere/action and two, rationalization and reality of what I listed above. There is a way to use other people playing at the table for camaraderie and another way to be aloof and concentrate by yourself.

Good points Al.

I'll add my comments.

1) A clear frame of mind is proportionally related to the actual winning rate.
Most part of players expect to win more often than not at some portions of the shoe or after some shoes are dealt, unfortunately that's not possible with regularity. It's now that a 'blurred frame of mind' begins to work.
Only long term tests could improve a player's attitude to understand that sh.it can easily happens in clusters. 

2) There are plenty of studies showing that 'intuitive' thinking will slightly overcome a general probability of being right or wrong whenever a positive reinforcement of some kind is or was acting.
In simple terms we'll be more inclined to be right when we're winning than when we find ourselves to bet while in behind.

3) 99.99% of bac players tend to rely too much about common sense and too much about wishful thinking.
I mean that many times those two factors will converge into a misleading world.
I'd personally change the 'common sense' word with 'statistical evidence'.

4) Imo this point summarizes the above comments.

5) This is a wonderful point.
Casinos do not win a lot of money by their math fkng edge (side bets aside), but as players do bet too little at profitable spots and too much at losing patterns.
After a WWWWW pattern a player must get nearly the same winning amount being lost at the same LLLLL symmetrical sequence.
'Nearly' as the vig is a constant obstacle in terms of ROI.

It's a human attitude to start a session by betting small, then raising the bets whenever losing situations will invariably come out.
A perfect both mathematically and practically unsound move.
