 Workable suggestions May 24, 2003

The suggestions in this book could be used effectively at mini baccarat,if the casino does not burn a card after the end of every deal like they do at some asian casinos. Also, there is the shuffling machine barrier to deal with which is difficult to figure out.
You may have the best strategies but if the casinos do their very best to minimise card counters and people who shuffle spook then a totally different approach to the game is neccessary if you want to get a better fighting chance at the tables.
 Remarkable study of the game of Baccarat February 28, 2003
6 out of 6 found this review helpful
This is probably the best book on Baccarat, and I preciously keep my copy for reference. John May's mastery of all historical, social and quantitative aspects of the game is remarkable. My only complaint is that the author tends to get carried away when he suggests "winning" strategies. Don't expect to find a practical way of making money in this book: unfortunately, a baccarat deck is much more stable than a blackjack deck. Still, if someone ever finds a winning strategy for baccarat, he will probably have read this book.Finally, a very minor point: there is a small mistake in the description of the rules of Baccarat Banque... although since Baccarat Banque is hardly ever played today it does not really matter.
The DEFINITIVE Book on Baccarat November 17, 2001
4 out of 4 found this review helpful
This is by far the best of 3 books I've read on Baccarat. I find it hard to believe that another book would have any more to add. The counting system is difficult (to perform, not to understand) but mathematically viable. Avoid John Patrick's book at all costs.
Best book if you truly want to win at Baccarat February 11, 2001
7 out of 9 found this review helpful
I just want to say that John has a counting system in this book that is hard for the casino to beat. I have only been playing his system for about a week now and I am up about $1500 and I only started with about $200, I think with his system you can bet the casino over time, that is just my view, but I can tell you I have not been this lucky in all my life, I have been out to the casino 6 times and only lost once.Thanks John :) Jeff
