    Thanks BetPhoenix! Read up on how to play and played for fun for a while. Minimum bet looks like it's $10 so got to get very lucky to roll it over 30 times. Worth a shot!

                Tried clicking on the 3rd table which says $1, but when I got there it said $50 minimum.

                    Well, that didn't take long. $10 minimum and only got to play 9 hands playing the bank. 2 wins 6 losses and 1 tie. Last hand had to bet $19 since if I lost a $10 minimum, I wouldn't be able to bet.

                        The hold on baccarat is about 1.28%. The 30 times and 60 hands should leave you some coin after all is said and done.

                          LOL. I appreciate the free money guys. One thing though is a $10 minimum game with a $50 bankroll to play does not leave room for to much error. Go on a bad swing, and it is over quick. Like I said before I got through 50 hands at the break even point and went 1-6 in my last 7. Not as easy as it may seem, but I did get to play Baccarat for free for 90 minutes. All in all a nice Xmas Eve present.

FYI, they do not reshuffle after every hand, so look for clumping. If you see the bank has won 3 hands in a row, play the player the next hand. When I played, if I had stuck to that routine, I would have walked out of there with the maximum $100 after 60 hands.

                                Double up a couple times. If you loose you will save yourself time. If you win you'll have $100 to piss of at table minimum which will hopefully last you through the $1500 rollover.

                                  Great job betphoenix on this book.I like the lines,they seem to have a lines maker over there that actually does his job and it is more along the lines and juice like at pinnacle then the usual linesman who just throw out the typical ten cent lines.

                                  My main wish for this book in the new year is to get a loyalty program like bookmaker/dsi and if someone could really look about getting earlier lines out and expanding the props wagering. I also like how the software is at 5dimes ,where you can do "if" wagers online by putting them on top of existing wagers,right now you cant even place "if" wagers using existing wagers at all even on the phone at phoenix.

                                  Overall,I would give these guys an A so far,fantastic job on this book.quick payouts ,great bonuses,good cs,great marketing,love the charity work these guys did in costa rica with the orphanage and I really would love to see some more contests over here at the sbr.

                                  Great job with this book

                                    See Reno, as I said earlier, you do not have to play the $1500 rollover all on Baccarat (I called and asked) My plan made sense in that if you can get through the 60 hands, you can transfer your money to the sportsbook and play up to your $1500 rollover there. As far as being high, I was sober when I played for 90 minutes in the Baccarat room. Now afterwards, I became drunk as a skunk

                                      I logged in and started playing - and won my first 6 hands in a row at $25 a pop. Sitting at $195.

                                      I'll get back to it later.

                                      I wish I could speed things up. Too much sitting there waiting for a clock to tick down.

                                      I have actually never played Baccarat before. It seems to require about the same skill as predicting coin-flips. Might as well speed it up.

                                      Maybe there's a way to do it and I just couldn't see it.


                                      But thank you Phoenix very much. Mighty neighbourly gesture.

                                        Hey Guys,

                                        The way I did mine was by betting smaller as you have to do minimum 60 hands anyway. I kept track of every hand. I played 83 hands totaling 1573, so I basically played 15-25 max per hand. I made it to $307, but doesn't matter as anything over $100 is null anyway. Just played hands of 50s and 100 just to kill time and its now at $115. I emailed them, nothing credited yet. Need to put it on some Hornets!!

                                        Good luck and Merry Christmas!

                                        Thanks BetPhoenix!

                                              betphoenix should fix their software. the third table said $1-$500 yet the minimum was $50.

                                                    just got done taking a shot at it. don't know much about the game, just know whenever i've been to the riverboat i always see a bunch of asians with pencils and paper playing it. i think i lasted about 54-55 hands, betting the minimum almost everytime, i think i actually have .05 left.
                                                    all i know is everytime i played player, the banker won, when i played banker the player won. hell , i tried tie a couple times and didn't hit, and tried sticking with banker, and like 4 of the next 6 were ties. i'm confused about who gets a 3rd card also, i got screwed a few times, actually alot, whether i was on banker or player they would have a 6 or 7 and the other would have a total of 4 or 5 and get a 3rd card and and get a 4 or 5 and beat me. And i got screwed with the 3rd card thing on betting on ties a few times and both the banker and player would be tied after the 2 cards and then they would give a 3rd to break the tie.
                                                    after not having any luck just randomly guessing what i thought would hit, i just played the banker and tie for minimum and BAM, the player won 13 of the next 20 hands and no ties ever hit.

                                                    that is why i hate casinos games and never understand why people love going over to the riverboat. it is all blind luck.

                                                    but thanks to BetPhoenix for the free shot anyway.

As far as being high, I was sober when I played for 90 minutes in the Baccarat room. Now afterwards, I became drunk as a skunk
                                                        I wouldn't worry about rollover. Your expected loss on $1500 in action is about $20 in baccarat. In the sportsbook it's much higher.

                                                          I never play casino games with my own money, but this was nice and relaxing to play while talking to other people. Wound up with ~$280 after at least 160 games, using casper's $10 method. Can only keep the $100 of course, but it was fun

                                                          thanks BP

                                                              I hope what I'm about to say isn't misconstrued as ingratitude. It's nice of Phoenix to give us that. I'm sitting at about $130 after ~45 hands so I'm definitely not complaining.

                                                              But man that is a stupid game. People will gamble on anything.

Holiday season I think even more so. Baccarat is a goofy game, but one that has some of the best odds for the player. There is a reason that when you walk into a casino the Baccarat tables are not as easily visable as Blackjack, Craps, and Roulette are.
