I lost all my money in baccarat

[Luis Veiga]

I lost all my money in baccarat. Now I'm learning BJ to survive inside the casinos.
I played in the Caesars, Venettian , Winn, Paris and Belagio lounges, as well as other casinos in Central America and South Africa.
I made a lot of 10k bets on baccarat; had 100k credit at each casino; received 7% match play; 10% off when you lost 100K; lodging in the casinos themselves; tickets for events.

I played in the VIP rooms, I had the best wines and drinks, the best meals ....

No sympathy for you.

Don't worry. It's just bad luck. You'll win eventually. Go get 'em, tiger!

Sounds like you played above your BR. As a struggling AP I feel that had you Simmed your game, played to your advantage, managed your $$ you wouldn't be in this position. If I had simply one of your bets I could build retirement for self and spouse...

I did not know anything about BJ. I only played Baccarat. We traveled in groups of 20 to 30 players. Some had 1,000K credit. The more experienced players made money playing doubles and managing match play and the discount of the loser. One won and one lost.

With this kind of history, credit, and reputation, you could probably do quite well managing loss rebates and incentives. IF YOU CAN MANAGE IT WITH PROPER STUDY AND DISCIPLINE. Given your history as a degenerate gambler, that's probably a long shot though.

Yes, I did not know what is taught here. If I had this information I would be fine.

Just remember acquiring information is one thing, being able to use it successfully while playing undetected is something else entirely different.

The edge is different depending on what the side bet it is/how exploitable to counting it is. Some of them are located here:

I had the best of the women the casino had to offer.

The side bet is generally called Dragon 7 or Panda 8 with an edge of about 10%. It is a high variance bet so your bankroll needs to be fairly strong. I've played it a few times and made money on it but it is boring to count it down.
