First time some one introduced me to baccarat was during a Tik Tok video. I had no idea how to play, but after Googling it, I saw it's the game with the lowest house edge, so I started playing

Once I went from R$200 (USD40) to R$40000 (USD8000). Tried to withdraw, got an error and ended up losing it all.
I already got nice streaks, but I am down about USD15000-20000 but still play

99% of times I bet on Banker, as I have more chances on winning, but I already got 8-13 strikes on Player. That's a chance of less than 0,5%, but that happens a lot

Your toughts? Do you play Baccarat?

I prefer slots. But baccarat is also a great game, also worth checking out. We have a fairly detailed learning series. Perhaps these materials will allow you to improve your results.

I used to think that baccarat was a type of poker and thought that the game was very complicated. But in fact, the game is not complicated, it is very interesting and dynamic.

It's probably an interesting game but I don't play it and never tried it out. When it comes to casino games I'll prefer Slots and roulette.

Unfortunately I don't have enough money for all the games I would like to play. I have only played baccarat a few times. The game is interesting, but I like slots more.

For me, it's a difficult game. I thought it was no more difficult than poker, but it turned out that for me personally it's more difficult.

For a long time, Baccarat was a mysterious game to me, only because I never played it or thought about learning it.
But from the lessons presented by Chris here on CC, I finally got familiar with it. It turned out to be a very easy game, but it has a lot to do with pure gambling games (Slots, roulette etc ..) in the sense that you just bet and pray. You can't intervene or influence the outcome in any way. That's why I think blackjack is much better.

I was under the impression that Baccarat was for big bet players wearing top notch tailored clothing ( like in the James Bond movies ) .Good luck to those who gamble at it !

Did learn basic rules many years ago but never played it, it looked similar to blackjack/poontoon/21 but having to score 9 or 19 with 2 or 3 cards.

No its not all that, the house still has the edge.

If you want all that, own a casino.

A game of aristocrats and nobility. And now anyone can play it. The game is quite simple, in principle everything will depend on your luck. But you have to play with discipline.
