Baccarat is supposed to be boring. Extremely boring. If there are any excitement to the game you are doing something pretty darn wrong or you are trying to catch up to get even. As always you assume this game is a guessing game for yours truly. Well I hope you continue to keep assuming that. I much prefer it this way. We are not trying to cure cancer here or trying to end famine. Taking on the casinos is an absolute selfish pursuit and the less folks know the better. You know uncle Uncle Axie don't think in any way I am taking offense you disagreeing with me. I hope that stays the case with baccarat. Actually I will get scared and offended when you do AGREE with me. LOL.

Actually it is not complicated like all the baccarat crap that is out there. I have said this before in here. It requires no more than five sentences in less than 15 minutes and you move on with your life.

I'm surprised because baccarat seems very boring, but I guess that's why you guys come up with all this complicated guessing systems. You certainly have enough time with all the sitting out you guys normally do.

To be fair I didn't fall asleep because It was boring, it was just the opposite, I had far to much excitement fot the day. I had been in the casino all day I hit something near the end but the paperwork was taking longer than expected.

I'm sure there are ways to see if someone is making money at something, without revealing any secrets if that's what you really want to find out. But I'll let someone else tackle that.

You answered your question. Now why would I be stupid enough to show you or anyone anything? How is that going to help me? And what makes you think you are special? LOL. Plus what I have is not a system anyways. I guess like most folks you like to go cherry picking my comments. Guess like you have some homework to do where you have to look back at my past posts to find the answer. Most likely you wouldn't which I hope you don't. LOL.

Axie keep assuming what is already out there. Enjoy that kool aid.

There's a big difference between a crapaccarat system and that.
It's not good to publicly talk about a REAL method one using special promotions, slot clubs or machines/games that actually work mathematically. The casino can quickly change something like this, sometimes within minutes.

You can probably make 100's of millions on crapaccarat before they would even blink.

Aliens will have visited before they change the rules of baccarat.

Any methods I claim work, I can show in theory and in reality use it and show a real profit AND I can show you the math on paper.

The benefits? You'll be a very wealthy and famous man, if you so choose you'll be the next Thorp.

I promise hookers and blow or millions if you show me a working baccarat betting system.

PS. How come all the surveillance people watching you suddenly don't take up baccarat.
Oh NVM they cant detect simple guessing methods via video.

This is what happens when trying to deal with someone who wants to be RIGHT. Waste of time. Look Uncle Axie if you want someone to show you a solution to this baccarat puzzle I am not the one nor am I stupid enough to do so. Plus the WOV board is definitely not the place to find it. Wealthy? Hmmm that could happen and on the flip side this can all blow up in my face. But what is important is I learn how to play correctly and continuously evolve this on my own and not with anyone else. This game has liberated me in ways beyond what I first intended as some freakish hobby/muse/side hussle. Famous? Something I definitely do not want at all. I WANT MY HOOKERS AND BLOW IN PEACE! Hahaha.

What I like about this board is to read up on other folks who doesn't follow the usual conventional path to life. Like a good and "safe" job and what not. Folks who follow the path of Jesse Livermore casino style minus the gun shot to the head.

If you think and feel that baccarat is a piece of garbage game so be it. I am not the one who is going to change your mind. Not my place. Plus I don't want to defend this game since it is not something that is worth defending.

If everyone starts doing it and busting up the tables then things are going to get uncomfortable. Since it is probably just me it would be a waste of time. Plus taking a few chips here and there without causing a big stir would be wasting casino resources. I mean it would be petty and dumb to get on someone's case who just won $800.

No I don't have to show you anything because there is nothing in it for me to do so. Your petty cheap shots are great evidence that is so.

Going back to your own comment:

Quote: AxelWolf

Why talk about it at all?



Also spreading to much information (especially publicly) leads to more competition, and again it wises up casinos and darksiders.



For all I know you sound like one of the many darksiders I run into. And the further your replies to me is getting more toxic. Hmmmm... definitely a darksider I am dealing with. Cherry picking my comments and now twisting/editing my words for your own whatever. Classy. Very classy. Thank goodness our interaction is just online and not in person.

You know Axe from all your responses to me deep down you want to crack this game yet couldn't because for whatever reason. So whatever Jedi mind tricks you are trying to throw at me to open up is just going to end up in a big constant circle.

I'm the furthest thing from a darksider you could imagination.

Let's try hard to pretend your system actually works.
what is it you would like to have?

FYI there are many benefits to you showing the right people. I know that from experience. Most AP's are much better off with a few good partners.

And they will share their hookers and blow with you. I hear It's no fun to hooker and blow yourself.

Baccarat is a game that doesn't need partners. You can stand and take things on on your own without anyone. That is another thing you are getting wrong about this game. Plus I have my own capital to carry things through. Also I prefer to work with my own ideas and do not want/need/depend on the input of others. Partnering is definitely something I have no interest in at all. So again stop assuming things. You have your way and works for you fine. Doesn't mean it will work for everyone.

Why even bother - I'd be willing to put up somewhere between500k and a million if you even had close to a working beatable system/ on bac- excluding side bets and or mail and extras- it's just outright bunk that you are claiming to beat a game that is uncountable and has a negative ev/ short of using something that I or somewhere else already mentioned- there so nothing for you to show because it simply doesn't exist - it's just dumbfounding that you what to make people think that there is..... Let me guess .... You and darkoz are writing the book together?

You always love to get things wrong do you. LOL. Why would I want or need your bankroll for? Then get table scraps in return? Plus I would be back in employee mode having to deal with your bs. I know a few folks who play with other people's money so they can feel "safe." They don't own their own time anymore. WTF. They were right back to where they wanted to get out of.

Dealing with desperate people who want something from you is such a drain.

Hopefully for your own good and benefit you one day take that Red Pill. Plus if you have that 500K to a million you wouldn't be in all that stray jacket mode. You remind me too much of that UKFanatic dude from VMB. That bro flushes money down at the tables like a brother no other. Holy crap the way he loses money is sick to my stomach.

Good grief, guys. Nothing worse (on a forum) than seeing 2 decent and respected people lose it. How does it benefit anyone, most of all yourselves, to seem so small and petty when neither of you are?

I challenge you both to come back here and ignore each other when your suspensions are up, and be welcomed back into this forum. Let's move forward, huh? Thin skin just leads to melanoma.



Well there is always that ignore button. I highly doubt that would be used though. Too much ego involved as usual. And I say the Wiz went above and beyond to mend something that had nothing to do with "his" forum.

Hopefully you've already moved your show to the systems forum. This forum is for discussion about the suspension list. And, right now, there is a very interesting discussion going on that is very hard to follow because there is a lot of derail baccarat noise here. You're continuation of your baccarat silliness in this thread is, at best, disrespectful

Having run a forum myself for almost 3 years, and having hosted Zen Grifter on my site for a couple of years (I hosted the original zenzone), I know many of the players in this dispute. I have my own thoughts on the matter, but prefer to hear others address the thorny issues.

The biggest problem with moderating a forum is deciding what shouldn't be there. That's the editorial decision that draws the most fire and can make running a forum an incredibly unpleasant experience. Knowing you have members on your own site who you wish weren't there, but haven't crossed any clear lines, separates the good from bad forum hosts. Threats of physical harm and lawsuits are not uncommon. That is the line that KJ and Norm are discussing and I find it fascinating and troubling.

What I don't find fascinating is your derail of this discussion into baccarat nonsense. Please! Please! Take it somewhere else. Make your previous post the last post on the subject in this forum.

Actually you are right. Looking back it was disrupting the flow. Now I wish I can go back and delete the rest.

As for the KJ and Norm situation. Unless there is actual action taken place real life and not just sticking things only with online rhetoric there is nothing troubling. I mean now since you mentioned that you ran a board yourself have you experienced and seen things actually taken place outside of your board? Online threats happen all the time in the heat of the moment. When the parties log off and cool off it is just another online phenomenon that will clear itself on its own. Typical online ego filled drama.

I mean given how many see you as some sort of "traitor" like John May. And as a result how many of the threats you have received become some actual face to face situation?

Thanks for letting me know. I never registered with that board whatever that board is. Plus if I ever wanted to bust chops on WOV I would be busting it on WOV and not somewhere else.

Could you send me whatever you found through PM or if the Mods allow it just post it here publicly.

Love is but a song to sing....

Come on people now,
smile on your brother.
Everybody get together.
Try to love one another,
right now.

Youuuuuu MIGHT be a 'rascal' if.......(nevermind ;-)...2F

This is silly, as usual. And today is Wednesday. Another dumpster fire.

Every similar forum on the web that exists and probably ever has existed that caters primarily to the very small subculture of those who really, really want to identify as "advantage players" or other flavors of serious gamblers continually has the same problems and always will. Because those who tend to be most intensely drawn to gambling to the extent they make it a major part of their life have always included a very high proportion of folks with particular kinds of emotional "issues" and certain kinds of conditions. Forms of autism for one. Fetal alcohol syndrome for another. Among many, and often more than one going on. The sort of issues and conditions that have had volumes written about them in medical literature, and their relationship to gambling, and are associated with challenges with getting along in the world that are a lot broader and deeper than any game, and that existed long before first setting foot in any casino or even becoming old enough to do so. And they can't ever be magically cured by something that might be done by someone operating a discussion forum. And the > 90% of the population that does not share those pre-existing emotional and mental conditions tend to be discouraged from being a very active part of the quite peculiar kind of little social world that develops within such a subculture.

Very unpopular to some when said "out loud" but true and screaming, flaming, big flashing neon sign with a brass band level of obvious within the first few minutes to most people. Yes it is, and it is most peoples' take away and what they mostly have to say about such little grouplets, this one no more or less than some others. Which is what keeps these forums very small. It just is what it is, and won't change.

Or alternatively, it is really everybody else in the world that has a problem, and "we" are really the ones who are just fine because of clinging in a circle with a chant that it is so, when not at each other's throats, and "they" are the ones who just don't "get it" like "we" in the little circle do. A lot like some other subcultures with folks with some of the same issues resulting in the intense pursuit of similar narrowly focused interests:



Oh well. Tomorrow is Thursday. Unless that's just a conspiracy to screw "us" over, and only fools believe in that plot against us.
Suck dope, watch TV, make up stuff, be somebody on the internet.

How much weed did you smoke before writing that beautifully inane post? I kid, and you may be partially correct, though I don't think I'm a fetal alcohol autistic person clinging to the forums for humanity sakes =D.
Playing it correctly means you've already won.

Well, Romes, like some others, I see folks around. And how much trouble they have with some of the simple basics of getting along in public. Including some basic things that are most often over and done with for a lot of folks in childhood or early adolescence. It isn't hard to end up knowing who some are, even when you'd rather not. The 'discreet & anonymous' thing seems to be asserted rather more commonly than done effectively or anywhere close to it. EDIT: Of course it doesn't amount to anything like "all." Since practically nothing in life ever does. And I wouldn't even want to say "most." I wouldn't claim to know, beyond some of the most vocal in forumland. The loudest, most often at the center of any ruckus, may be their very own kind, who tend to drown out others. Whether medicated with their choice of one thing or another, or not. But longstanding emotional problems are sure a lot more common among those most obsessed with gambling than with the average Wal-Mart shopper. As are some other obsessions that crossover a lot.

Or not, if you prefer. So nevermind, if you like. Everybody who's ever looked at the issue is probably just some kind of pinhead with a stupid worthless paper to write, and has it all wrong. They're all fine. Actually brilliant, in fact. Yeah, let's go with that. We'll say just not so well understood by all the lesser folk who make up most of the world. Carry on.

In fact some that I haven't ever had occasion to be around, that I and quite a few others I know might think are barking at the moon wacko (pardon the judgmental technical term) have even been described as sweet by others. No doubt. Prolly made of nothing but Tupelo honey.

Damnation, I knew that. I can't get anything right anymore.
So I hit my 16 vs 10 w/ 2 cards, but I stand on my 16 vs 10 w/3 cards? True count is neutral, 3 decks in, 6 aces are gone, also 8 5's, 16 monkeys, and I think I saw a partridge sitting in a pear tree ;-)

<edit> been a bunch of 2's too, and the sevens are following me around like the NSA. I need a break!

Yeah, DMSCR and others on here. This thread is impossible to split; takes 20 minutes just to load pre-split within the macro, then I can only read the first line or two of what's said, quote or not, to mark it for a split. It crashed my computer yesterday trying to deal with it, and I gave up.

STOP posting random crap here! STOP posting hijacks here! This is not the first time we've made that request, and it generates complaints when you do it anyway, beyond the comments (further cluttering the thread) in-thread about it happening. Please consider this a warning, that I will have zero tolerance from here on out for off-topic stuff in this thread, and there will be action. Thanks very much.

I know everyone loves seeing how long this thread can go, but might it not be time to start a new Discussion About the Suspension List thread? Other than the fact that it is still easy for us to delete/edit individual posts, this thread is completely unmanageable.

I didn't realize that this thread was so important that it had to remain squeaky clean. The fact that this thread has other conversation on it should be thought of as a good thing.

In reality talking about why people have been suspended is -EV.

That's a much better idea than having to have different standards for hijacking. Thanks, Mission; let's do that. I'll retract my statement (quoted above) and go back to normal moderation on the topic.

This thread is closed. Further discussion of the suspension list can be found here.

I agree with everything you said here. This (squeaky clean) is/was a limitation of the board's thread capacity and not really a content issue. However, hijacking the new thread, as in hijacking others, will still be an administrative issue.
