More a guide to pleasurable gambling September 24, 2005
4 out of 4 found this review helpful
Do not buy this book looking for how to walk out of Bellagio with more than you walked in with. Scoblete is straight forward about the odds in Baccarat and more interested in teaching you how to get the most out of playing the game with the lowest house edge.
Brief descriptions of well known betting strategies are included. Greater detail is given however to the rituals of the game and how to use them to slow down play; thus gaining more comps for longer playing time at high dollar tables while risking no more money than you would playing mini-bac.
An interesting easy read, but certainly not the final word.

A complete discussion of all aspects of baccarat from card counting to systems play. Scoblete masterfully takes the reader into the ins and outs of this fascinating game and shows how to really lower the house take on your money and how to get what he calls the "monetary edge." The book is fascinating and fun. Scoblete is an excellent writer. As I said in the title of this review, the book is loaded with valuable information.

4 out of 6 found this review helpful
after reading the many positive reviews from others, I decided to give this book a try. Being an intermediate baccarat player, this book had nothing insightful to offer someone like myself, I kept anticipating that the author would offer more in the ways of different money management systems that I could implement, along with different angles and strategies. This book did no such thing, it only included novice MM systems, 4/5 of the book seemed like fillers. Scoblete talked about the 'feeling' and 'enjoyment' you should get from playing baccarat and how to get the most of these feelings. Learning how to get comped and the seven deadly sins of gambling. This is a instruction manual for rookies and should be considered as such.
What a book! July 11, 2002
