    -105 is 2.46% hold.
    1.06% Banker’s hand, 1.24% Player’s hand, 14.36% tie.

    So the tie doesn’t make it a good game correct versus sports bet

    JJ, this is a decent topic to speak about. Expand your horizon a little bit:

    *Baccarat is a low-vig game. But basically impossible to beat. You get ground down over time.

    *Blackjack is a similar low-vig game. But it's a SKILL game. There are ways to beat the game...if u have better knowledge.

    *Sports at -110 is an 11-to-win-10 game. I like your -105 reference. Can sports be beaten?

    That answer is Yes. But how do u do it? -105 is a good start. Simply, you want to create an output stream that pays out better than your cost. 55% win rate is equal to about -122 line.

    You're printing $$ if you buy tickets at -105 and cash them at a -122 rate. How do u get there? Easier said than done.

    They are not holding jack on me because I win! I am holding 5% on them.

    nothing to know/understand... even Sam Odom can play

    there are set rules -- some game variations but each game has set rules

    you dont decide on 'taking a hit' or 'standing'

    you do decide on:

    1. amount of wager
    2. placing wager on 'Player' or 'Bank' or 'Tie'

    Thats it

    Tie bet has nothing to do with betting on banker or player. Tie is a push. Percentages posted above are correct. Less vig on baccarat than sports, but play 70 hands an hour at the low vig and it becomes a sure loser.

    Anyone know why on PC the sbr casino cuts off some of the casino games after logging in? It's like a web design glitch and i cant see craps or some others. Some of the games gets cut off by the user menu on the right...

    You are even better off making 10 bets with a player edge. Those bets can be found in both sports, by betting the best numbers; they can also be found in baccarat, particularly on some side bets. It is fascinating that you continue to ignore that, even after 16 years and 360,000 posts.

    They don’t chart bank won 9 over nothing with that nothing being 3 face cards.

    Charting is more than just bank line and player line.

    I do this for a living.
