Read with interest the Wizards stats regarding 6's and in particular the more significant 4 value card leaving a Baccarat shoe.

Had a situation last week, were due to a lousy card shimmy, a lot of the cards were clumped, 8-8 Tie consisting of 4 x 4's, next hand 2 more fours left the deck, over the course of the next couple of hands more fours were drawn. As there are 24 x 4's in 6 deck game, at least 50% left the deck very early.

Small cards leaving a shoe is good for the Banco bet according to the figures, so was on the look-out for many Banco hands towards the end of the shoe, long streaks perhaps.

Never happened.

Even in the extreme case of the first 24 dealt cards of a 6-card shoe being all fours, the banker bet would still carry a small house edge.

Player-banker in bacc is just not very countable.
