Casinos effectively got rid of threat of Martingale System gambler or player by setting Table maximums (and minimums). i.e. A player bets $5 on banker and lost.  Next bet, $10 on banker, next bet $20, etc, and he continues to lose.  Before long, his bet will have doubled up to a point that it will exceed table maximum.  In this case player can't bet any higher and his system has failed, he must quit.  

The Martingale System is a horrific betting system that follows a human beings panic thinking - their natural thought pattern that somehow believes that if a coin lands heads up 9x in a row, there is a greater chance than 50% that it will land tails on 10th flip! IT DOES NOT WORK!

So - if all these strategies and systems - card counting, pattern spotting, streak spotting etc are worthless strategies for baccarat - is there any good one? Well...practically and mathematically speaking... when you analyse numbers, odds do seem to always be in favour when a player bets on banker, though this is a very boring tactic to play.  Perhaps throw in some pattern chasing to break tedium, or count scorecards!

Screw strips firmly to chute with 2-inch screws from under side. These ought to be placed not more than 2 feet apart. Probably each will have two or more strips in making a piece of sufficient length. If so, care should be taken to have pieces joined on a bevel with a slant from outer edge toward bottom of chute, so as to leave no edge.

The utmost care should be used to have a perfectly smooth surface on inside of chute. A pump or bucket is needed at top of chute to wet surface before swimmer starts his slide.

The supports should be firmly braced with 2 x 4-inch timber, and lower end of chute should extend over pier at least 1 foot and not nearer surface of water than 3 feet perpendicularly, allowing swimmer to enter water as in a dive.

The chute can be fastened to supporting braces through timbers, into maple side strips with a good heavy log screw. A platform 3 feet wide and 4 feet long near top of chute, and set just waist deep from top of chute will make starting easy.
