You can interpret that many ways. I shall refrain from explaining due to not wanting to have my comments misunderstood as an insult to leadership.

Edit to add:

Nathan's Corner was #1 longer. You have a long way to go filling in those shoes. Or should I say bus seat😃🤣

And by beaten I mean consistent lifetime winning over many sessions.

Whenever the baccarat guys are confronted with the math they admit it's a negative game over a lifetime IF you were sitting there flat betting continually for a longtime. They want us to believe they can outplay the math with some cockamamie betting system that usually consists of pretending it's not all just one big long session especially if you vary your bets. They think they just need lots of winning sessions to generate a profit long term and somehow everything will be ok as long as you don't play too long in one session.

When you say “his view”, are you referring to the claim that baccarat can be beaten with strategies like hit and run , and varying your bet size ? And by beaten I mean consistent lifetime winning over many sessions.



MDawg's claims that baccarat can be beaten are only like 20% of what he posts. The rest is legitimate trip reporting. In fact, I don't think he's even mentioned his "system" at all in this thread.

He has stated several times in other threads that his method for avoiding the baccarat house edge involves “hit and run sessions, quitting while ahead”.. and varying bet size.

For tax purposes it's best to finish your gambling session at even or ahead. Losing may involve deep pockets.

I know. And that's only part of what he talks about. The rest is legitimate trip reporting.

That's what some people thought about B79's BS. Someone even lost a few hundred bucks over it(As it turns out... that was the best day of their life. 😄)

Legitimate to you and I might mean different things.

When the entire basis for the trip reports and what’s included in them , is winnings that are from a mathematically unsound method, then how much “legitimacy” can be assumed from anything that person says ?

I didn't mean that you'll get all of the theoretical loss in comps,

But that's exactly what you said..."two grand in comps earned just like that...", which is 100% of the theoretical loss on $200,000 in bacc play.


Quote: Mdawg

but the % is much higher than 15%. 15% against actual loss, against theoretical is much higher %.

No that's not the case. The comp rate for most play in the casino is 30ish% of the player's theo. For VP and bacc it's notoriously LESS than that. A 15% comp rate on bacc theo is about right, even for $500 a hand play.

Your trip report is quite enjoyable, but again, the numbers don't really add up.
