Baccarat - A Gentleman's Game - Betting Big and Living Life
I love putting in a shift at the casino. I enjoy playing slots, but Table Games are my true passion and bread & butter! Table Games is where I make my money to fund my slots addiction, or sports wagers. While I do sometimes have losing sessions, I implement basic strategies to maximize my odds, while using my vast gambling experience to identify runs, when i’m feeling lucky, or just when you stumble into that lucky shoe(every gambler’s wet dream…..the HOT SHOE, you don’t wanna miss it!)..
My Favorite Table Games Are:
Craps
Baccarat
Blackjack
Understanding how a gambler settles on their casino game of choice is always an enlightening origin story, and those that choose Baccarat, accordingly, are gluttons for pain and hindshight. With the simplicity of backing with either the Player or the Banker, Baccarat brings an accessibility and intuitiveness that most people can appreciate. As long as you choose the winning side, you are happy and feeling like a genius.
With its low house edge or VIG, you can play Baccarat for hours and work hard to grind out a profit. The epitome of grit grinders, Baccarat players know you need to scratch and claw for every win, to get a enough Ws(wins) and come out in the GREEN.
There are a lot of stereotypical Baccarat player profiles, but my favourite is the “OG Asian”. Quiet in nature, but deeply invested in the stakes of the game, the Asian gamers possess wisdom and knowledge from having seen many hands dealt in Baccarat. Balancing superstition and an innate pleasure in gambling, the Asian gamblers appreciate the good odds, the hand tracking and W/L data feed, providing an environment ripe for grinding out some Wins.

Baccarat Overview:
Baccarat is a card game with three possible outcomes; player wins, banker wins, or a tie. There are two opposing sides, the PLAYER and the BANKER. The dealer deals two cards for each, face-up, visible to everyone at the table. Whoever’s hand totals closest to 9 wins. You choose whether you bet on the Player hand or the Banker hand - you can even bet on both. If you bet on the hand of the banker, a commission is paid to the casino, given that this hand is more probable to win. This commission varies by casino but it is generally 5-10% of the winnings. Each card has different values; Ace is worth 1, 2 through 9 are worth their face value, and tens, jacks, queens, and kings equal zero. Each casino has further rules about each hand. Always remember, when you walk up to a table you can ask the dealer for a cheat sheet of the rules if you are unsure at any time. If you aren’t sure then make sure you ask, these are your hard earned dollars that you are gambling.
