Spotting Patterns
While Playing Casino BaccaratOur most recent betting tips have addressed the game of Baccarat and its close
derivation, Mini Baccarat. Mentioned in these were the the different types of
playing strategies and theories that some gamblers like to employ, but which
seasoned players usually advise against using. One of these is "pattern
chasing", also called "pattern spotting".
If you have ever played baccarat
before, it is likely you noticed other players holding and marking on small
cards. Although not all of the players who are holding cards are trying to spot
and chase patterns (some players use cards to record their wagers and money
management), the bottom line is that most of them are indeed chasing patterns
and trying to read in between the lines (or rather, numbers).
It does seem
absurd when one asks, how can a pattern form from a randomly dealt shoe
containing eight decks of cards? Despite attempts to answer this question with a
rational explanation by the players who attempt to spot patterns, there is no
definitive and absolute formula or blueprint for the formation of patterns and
for consequently spotting them.
Upon retrospect, one could look back and very
well identify the suggestion of a pattern, albeit spurious; However, this is in
retrospect. And just like predicting the flip of a coin toss, the odds will
always be 50:50. Just because the tails has come up six times in a row, does not
mean that it is time for a Heads to come up on the seventh coin toss. Such is
the nature of pattern spotting and chasing. Give it a shot if you are an
optimistic thinker. Just be aware there is no mathematical merit in doing so.
