The Baccarat One-Sided Strategy (the Boss)


Book Description

The Baccarat One-Sided Strategy (The BOSS) is an easy to follow baccarat strategy that uses a non risky 1:1 flat wagering tactic. Thus the Martingale method is not used at all. The aim of the BOSS is to win a certain number (average of 3+ units) per Baccarat Shoe over long term play and overtime increasing flat betting wagers to thus win more. The BOSS strategy has been fully tested on thousands of live Baccarat Shoes and over many thousands of outcomes. Although the BOSS is straight forward, the concept behind the strategy is very advanced, thus making this it one of the best Baccarat strategies in the world. It follows some of the Author's bestselling books on Baccarat including, The Ultimate Golden Secret Baccarat Winning Strategy 3.0. In the BOSS book, the Author uses a certain indicator that shows readers how to spot the most productive Baccarat Shoes for the strategy. There's lots of tips and important information that'll improve a bettors game and overall Baccarat experience. The BOSS is a Baccarat strategy that is designed to remove the psychological burden from a bettor when trying to work out what Side (Banker or Player) to bet on. Any regular Baccarat bettor knows the stressful feeling of making wagering decisions for each outcome. A completed 6 or 8 deck Baccarat Shoe will have 60 to 80 ish outcomes, thus there are lots of decisions to make should a bettor play to the end of a Shoe. Patterns will form and change within a few outcomes, trends can thus only begin to become clear sometimes well into a Shoe depending on the trend type forming. With the red (Banker) and blue (Player) dots forming on a scoreboard, a bettor can become confused and will often make wrong decisions because the forming trend of Shoes are in constant change thus showing different signals from outcome to outcome. The BOSS takes an objective view. And this is one of the important strengths of Tabone's strategy. Its focus for the most part steers away from forming patterns, and the trends those patterns form and aims at winning a percentage of what will be the difference in the stats between the Banker and Player Sides during the forming of a Shoe i.e. the winning number difference that one Side gains while the Shoe is being played out. This book contains a complete strategy with stop losses and a bet again trigger. It is a flat betting strategy which means no double down is required in order to win.Contents: Introduction.What is the game of Baccarat?

LEARN THE SECRETS OF THE TILES! Pai Gow Tiles is "the thinking person's casino game." It's played in casinos throughout the United States, including places like Las Vegas, New Jersey, and California. Exotic and engaging, it combines skill and luck and-for the knowledgeable player, Pai Gow is also one of the fairest games offered in casinos and cardrooms. It may seem mysterious at first, but you'll soon see that the game is actually pretty simple to learn, challenging to master, fun and sociable, and a great table game for preserving your bankroll. In 1981, Michael Musante was Supervisor of Oriental Games at the Sahara Hotel in Las Vegas when he self-published a little book entitled Pai Gow - Chinese Dominoes. It was the first English-language book to comprehensively explain the game. In fact "the Musante House Way"-based on the first edition-is the foundation for the house way in many casinos. After 30 years, that book is acknowledged as a gaming classic with some online sellers asking hundreds of dollars for a used copy. This book revisits the original edition and contains extensive updates, all-new graphics, and additional insights into this ancient game. You'll get an outstanding introduction to the lore, rules, and strategy of Pai Gow and a variety of tips and techniques for mastering the tiles. Also included are several suggestions to improve your play, as well as a first-of-its-kind chapter on how to memorize the order of the tiles. With this book and a bit of practice, you'll be able to play intelligently and with confidence! ABOUT THE AUTHOR Michael J. Musante is considered one of the foremost authorities on the game of Pai Gow in the United States. He was instrumental in establishing the first "legal" game of Pai Gow in California at the Huntington Park Casino. He trained the dealers, supervisors and surveillance personnel for Pai Gow at the Casino de Quebec in Hull. He also was an expert witness for the County of Los Angeles in a case involving the legality of Pai Gow in California. Mr. Musante has been in and around the gaming industry for the last forty years. He has worked in three major resort areas of Nevada: Lake Tahoe, Reno, and Las Vegas. He has dealt and supervised every game offered in a casino including "21," Craps, Roulette and Baccarat and was also one of the first Occidentals to have ever dealt the game of Pai Gow in a North American gaming establishment.
