If I beat Wizard of Odds Play for Fun Baccarat is that anything?

Quote: weaselman

The sad thing is that the more thoroughly you test with positive results, the more the sure you get ... and the less likely you are to win when you finally play for real money, because after all these successful sessions, a huge loss becomes more and more due.

this was indeed probably sarcasm, BUT, how much do you want to bet that's exactly how it will go and seemingly for that reason!

I play the Wizzards Baccarat game when I'm bored, which is quite a bit. I follow the last decision going up one with a loss and down one with a win, I've never lost. I think there might be a flaw in the game. I'm sure not taking my money and running to play based on any on line game. You can not beat a negative game.

If you haven't seen any huge losses for a long time of testing, I'm talking about hours a day for months, you might have a system immune to it and find you're playing close to even most of the time, losing at the house edge. You may not win in the casino, but neither will you lose your shirt.

You shouldn't be testing your system with live play, because you can't play enough hands. You should hire a programmer to run a computer simulation. You can probably find one for $50 to $100 on Elance or similar.

As MichaelBluejay points out, if you're really serious then hire a comptuter programmer for a relatively small amount of money to test it.

I really hope weaselman's comments were an attempt at humour. I did laugh out loud for real. That was actually really good if he intended that. Kind of cruel though in a way. In short, your betting system probably sucks and still maintains the house edge and you would lose eventually. We can't say for certain without knowing what it is. I am not a maths expert by any means. However, it would be an extremely rare event, but not impossible, that you figured out some sure betting system on baccarat that can beat the game and remove the house edge.

That is what I suspected (probably not going to be worth while as a method),

Okay, then, will you share it with us for fun? Always interesting to see what other people have come up with, and if it's not based on something from nineteenth-century France, then it's got definite novelty value.

Hey you should go get a promo code from BacSup to download his new baccarat supreme game on the Apple AppStore. He may build in an autoplay feature and money management designer if enough of us request it through feedback. :) As far as I have seen so far, the shoes that are generated by baccarat supreme is spot on with the types of shoes you could expect from those shuffle master card shufflers seen in the casinos.
