Thursday, June 27, 2002 Hello everyone, Last night I was going through the Zumma tester book: 72 Days at the Baccarat Table by Erick St. Germain, scrolling through random pages. At the end of each shoe, there is a statistics table showing the number of Banker and Player decisions. At times the difference between those two numbers is pretty close. However, most of the time this difference ranges between 6 and 16. Shoe number 105, for instance, shows 42 Banker versus 27 Player decisions. Shoe number 161, on the other hand, shows 27 Banker versus 41 Player decisions. It would be nice if we knew beforehand if there will be more Player or Banker decisions. Then winning would be a piece of cake, wouldn't it? We would just bet on only Player bet or Banker bets. But unfortunately, there is no way of knowing this before starting to bet on a specific shoe and completing all bets on that shoe. What we surely do know, though, is that there will be a difference between the number of Player and Banker decisions. Why don't we then bet on this difference? Then the number of units we can win until the end of the shoe will be up to the amount of this difference. The idea is that if there will be more Player decisions, we should be betting on Player, if there will be more Banker decisions, we should be betting on Banker bets. How do we synchronize then our bets towards the Banker or the Player side? A very simple method I thought of is to note this difference from the very beginning of the shoe by counting the number of Player and Banker decisions. Then we bet on whichever side has the greater count. This way, at the end of the shoe, if we had more Player decisions, we will have bet on the Player side and if we had more Banker decisions, we will have bet on the Banker side automatically. I have tested this on quite a few shoes and it works quite well. Let's take shoe number 105 and see how this method works.

You don't bet on the very first decision. You see what it is, and you start counting them. If it's a Player, you register one under column Count P's. If it's a Banker, you register 1 under column Count B's. You do that for every decision. As more Player decisions come, you increment the count under column Count P's and as more Banker decisions come, you increment the count under column Count B's and so on. If the count of either Banker of Player is greater, that determines your next bet. If the number under Count P's is greater you bet on Player on your next decision. If the number under Count B's is greater, you bet on Banker on your next decision. In shoe 105 above, the first decision is a P. We register 1 under column Count P's and 0 under column Count B's. So, we know we will bet on P on our next bet, since the number of Count P's is now greater than Count B's. In sequence 2, a Banker decision comes up. We lose that bet. Registering the counts, we have now 1 for P's and 1 for B's. Since this count is equal, we don't bet on our next bet. A P comes up in sequence 3. Now the count is greater for P's and we bet P on our next bet. A P comes up in sequence 4. We win that bet. You must have noticed that we just need to use flat bets and I happen to chose $100 units. The table takes into account Banker commissions when we win on Banker decisions. You can see the amount of bet, how much we cash or lose and the net profit calculations at the three last columns respectively. In sequence 4, the count of the P's grows again and is greater than the count of B's. So we bet on P on our next bet. In sequence 5, a B comes up. We lose that bet. The count is still greater on the P's. So we bet P again on our next bet. In sequence 6, a B comes up again. We lose that bet, too. The count of P's and B's become the same. So we don't bet on our next bet. We won't bet until one the counts become greater. In sequence 7, a B comes up again. Now the count becomes greater for B's, which determines that we should bet B on our next bet. So we bet B and in sequence 8, a B comes up. We win that bet. The count increases for B's. So we decide to bet B again for our next bet. In sequence 9, a P shows up. We lose that bet. We increment the count for the P's, but the count of the B's is still greater. So we decide to bet on B on our next bet. In sequence 10, a B shows up. We win that bet. We increment the count for the B's and leave the count for the P's the same. If you notice, after sequence 10, the count for the B's remains greater than the count for the P's until the remainder of the shoe. Therefore, we keep betting B until sequence 69, the end of the shoe. The Banker side remains dominant and makes us a winner, profiting exactly $1,010 for the entire shoe. Let's now take the other shoe, number 161, where the number of Players were greater than the number of Bankers and see if the method will be able to synchronize to the side which has the greater difference.

The only time this method will not work too well, is when the count of the P's and the B's fluctuates frequently and the dominant side alternates from B's to P's very often.

The good thing is that we are using flat bets only and that we don't lose more than 10 units at most. Let's take then a typical shoe, where the difference between Banker and Player decisions is 6. Shoe # 393 has 33 Banker decisions and 39 Player decisions. Let's see how the method will perform.

In shoes, where the difference between the Player and Banker decisions is greater, we will surely end up with positive unit numbers which will equal to the number of this difference minus the number of fluctuations between B's and P's on our Next Bet column. This number of fluctuations should not be too big, as one side eventually dominates the other when the difference is great. So when the difference is great, your bets do make a difference in this method. You can definitely try the above method in one of the 4 following on-line casinos I trust the most, as they are Safe Bet certified and approved by Verisign and most importantly, I had a great experience and success using their software, not mentioning the wonderful customer support and flexibility in the way you can make your payments and cash-ins.
