Last month I arrived at my chosen table a few minutes before it opened for the first time that day. I played about 35 hands and wins were overwhelmingly on the Banker's side. If I played 35 hands, 30 were Banker wins with Player wins sporadic and never consecutive. Under normal circumstances -- not in extreme cases of Banker or Player favor -- will Player win 3 times in a row? How about 4 times in a row?

Can't speak to the math behind it, but I will say that the last time I played baccarat I bet player consistently and did well with many streaks of 4 or 5 in a row. Bought in for $500 on a 25 dollar table and colored in 600 after 3 shoes with $25 flat bets. The player can get hot just as in blackjack the player can win 7 or 8 hands in a row on occasion even though the odds are against them. It's all variance in the short run.

Baccarat Streaks question
Player and Banker seem to have about the same streaks of length 2,3 and 4 per shoe, on average that is.
I can say you saw a very unique Baccarat shoe.
