Talking about "following the dragon", "ping pong" and "side-by-side", have you heard of people bet only, let's say first 5 games, or next 2nd liner 1st five games on player or banker only? They dun care the end-result, just player or banker all the way.
Are you talking about me? No la, just joking:p I have a 'mentor' who is my good friend, who taught me a lot on this game and we do a lot of analysis.
'Follow the dragon thrend'
'ding dong thrend'
'double thrend'
all these are just thrends. There is no way for anyone to consistently hit the right thrend on every shoe. They say ding dong, then come dragon. they say dragon, a while later ding dong come. Every shoe sure have ding dong, then how?
Actually to read into this game, we will realise the common mistakes and consequences on how people lose in baccarat. Let's not talk about winning first. Because if one can stop losing, the key is here. If you lose 1 unit, you need to win 2 units, in order to have a profit of 1 unit. So the more you lose, let's say 20 units, you need to win a whopping 21 units in order to have a profit of 1 unit.
Common reasons why people lose.
-Buy player, open banker.
-buy banker, open player.
-banker streak come, they buy player to break as they think it will not persist.
-player streak come, they buy opposite to break.
-buy and hope and pray for super long dragon.
Let's understand that in ALL shoes, every hand is independent, there is no such thing as 20 bankers in a row just because it is supposed to, but it happens due to a coincidence. Yes, its coincidence.
In order to minimise your loss, you have to play only 1 side. That means to say if you buy player, wait for the right time and buy only player. Don't switch to banker. If you buy banker, wait for the right moment and only buy banker.
I only buy banker for all the shoes I play. I never touch player even if its 1:1 payout. Even if the shoe is player intensive, at the most I don't lay bets. And I wouldn't lose heavy. When you start losing heavy, your mind goes blank, and that is when the casino Starts KILLING. That is the moment, not when they slash you bit by bit.
Some people can spend 3 hours betting a total of $3,000 and probably lose $300. Each unit they lay is $25. No of bets laid per unit at $25 is 120 bets
Some people can spend 3 hours betting a total of $500 and probably win $100. Each unit they lay is $25 too. No of bets laid per unit at $25 is 20 bets.
Do you all see the difference in the above 2 scenarios?
Many people love to place bets, because
its fun to place a bet, the excitement comes hoping the result goes your way. But this is how casinos make money.
So if you play the 2nd scenario, you will realise its damn f#@king boring and even you win $100, you also damn sian.
But hey, the irony is you win
How many of you love FUN, or how many of you love to Win? I love to win, so I have to sacrifice the FUN. If the FUN part cannot be sacrificed, then you will have to sacrifice your WIN. The choice is yours.
So, in order to stop losing, you must take away the fun and wait for the right chance and moment and place your bet. (Don't buy player and banker, just concentrate on one) and you will stop losing like shit.
