3 Introduction The Automatic Bet Tracker in this manual is designed to be used with the Target Baccarat Strategy. Before you attempt to use this Bet Tracker you must understand how to use the system first. You should read and study the Target Baccarat Manual before you try to use the Automatic Bet Tracker. We recommend that you use the Automatic Bet Tracker to control and record games played in practice mode in an online casino before you risk any money using this system. You can perfect your play and use of the Bet Tracker before becoming a winning baccarat player. 3

4 Target Baccarat s Automatic Bet Tracker The Automatic Bet Tracker is a simple to use, yet highly effective method you can use for keeping track of your play when you use Target Baccarat. The Automatic Bet Tracker is a refined way of tracking and recording each round of play in a game of baccarat or mini-baccarat. Before trying to use this Bet Tracker you should have mastered how to use the Target Baccarat Strategy which is described in detail in the Target Baccarat strategy manual. We have developed two different forms of the Automatic Bet Tracker: 1. The Target Baccarat Automatic Tracking Form, which can be used when playing baccarat online, and 2. The Target Baccarat Chip Tracking System which is used in land-based casinos and uses chips to record and track each game. 4

5 Summary of Target Baccarat For your convenience this chapter presents a concise summary of both the playing and betting strategies for Target Baccarat. Summary of Target Baccarat You have to decide where to place your wager. We will only bet on Player (P) or Banker (B) and never wager on Ties (T), so your choice of where to place your wager boils down to making a bet on either Player or Banker. You will use Tracker-Hunter Bet Selection to place your bets. Your second decision is how much to wager. You will use two different Betting Schemes changing from the principle betting mode of Target Coup Betting to Hedge Betting to prevent losing due to long strings of losses. You will need to learn the rules that apply to this betting strategy. Tracker Betting Rules: 1. Start out betting the Same (S) as the previous decision. If the last decision was B, bet on B. 2. Continue using the S pattern of bet selection until you have a loss. You could use this bet selection method for one round or ten consecutive rounds. As soon as you have a losing bet using the S pattern change to the O pattern for the next round of play. 3. With the O pattern we will bet the opposite of the last decision. If the last decision was B we will bet on P. We will continue using this bet pattern until we have a lose. 4. We any loss we will change from the S pattern to the O pattern, or if we are in O pattern, back to S pattern. With consecutive losses our batting pattern will look like: S O S. 5. The method of selecting a betting pattern (S or O) and continuing with this pattern until we have a loss is called Tracker Betting. If we lose three bets in a row we change 5

6 our bet selection rule for the next round of play (see rule 6). 6. With three consecutive losses we will repeat the last betting pattern. Is we have three losses with the patterns S O S, we will bet S on the next round. This is called a Hunter Bet. After this round we will revert to Tracker betting. If you are unclear on Tracker Betting you should review the examples of this method of bet selection. Target Baccarat Bet Sizing We determine how much to bet using two different betting modes: Target Coup Betting and Hedge Betting. Target C Betting: Target Coup Bets (Shown for $5 Minimum Bets) Level Bet After 2 Wins to Level Target C Betting Rules: 1. We always start in Target C Betting Mode. Here we will increase our betting level following a loss and drop one betting level following a win. 2. If we win two bets in a row or two out of three bets we will drop our next bet to the level shown for After 2 Wins in Level above in the table. 3. Whenever we win a Level-1 bet or win two out of three higher bets we will have a Winning Coup. Any Winning Coup gives us a Net Win against the casino. The logical place to end a Contest against the casino is right after winning a coup. 4. If we lose two consecutive Target C bets we change our betting to a different betting scheme called Hedge Betting. 6

7 Hedge Betting: Hedge Bets (Shown for $5 Minimum Bets) Level Bet Here are the rules for Hedge Betting: 1. Only start Hedge Betting Mode after losing two consecutive Target C Bets. 2. Start at Level-1. Increase the bets one level following a loss. With any win revert to making Target C Bets. 3. After winning any Hedge Bet revert to Target C betting, resuming betting a one level higher than the last Target C bet lost. Example: Target C Betting: Lose Level-3 and Level-4 bets. Hedge Betting: Lose Level-1 and win Level-2 bets. Revert to Target C betting at Level-2 Target C Bet. Target Baccarat Base Bets, Bets Used and Bankrolls Base Bet Target C Bets Hedge Bets Contest Bankroll $ $100 $ $200 $ $300 $ $500 $ $800 $ $1000 $ $1500 $ $2000 $ $2500 $ $3500 $ $5000 $ $7500 $ $10000 $ $20000 $ $30000 $ $40000 $ $

8 Sample Game Using Target Baccarat The best way to understand Target Baccarat is to see how it is used in real games. I am going to present a game, broken down for each round of play so that you can follow the strategy exactly. Sample Game 1 Key: Bet Mode: T = Target C Betting H = Hedge Betting W= Winning Hand L = Losing Hand P = player B = banker Ti = tie S = bet the same as the last outcome O = bet the opposite of the last outcome Explanation of Game Format: Round number of round played Outcome the outcome of the round, where P means player hand won, B means banker hand won and T = tie. Bet Pattern the bet selection pattern used, where S means bet the same as the previous outcome and O means bet the opposite of the last outcome. Bet on where the bet is placed, where P means player and B means banker. Bet Mode the bet mode used where St= Strike Betting, C = Counterstrike Betting and Tr = Trend Betting. Bet Level the bet level used in the betting series used. For example, L-2 means a Level-2 bet. Amount Bet the amount wagered. 8

9 W/L the outcome of the bet where W means the bet won and L means the bet lost. Winning Coup Coup won by winning Level-1 bet or winning 2 out of 3 higher bets. Running Total the net amount won for the game after each round of play. Sample Game 1 Round Outcome Bet Pattern Bet On Bet Mode Bet Level Amount Bet W/L Winning Coup Running Total 1 P S B T B O B T P O P T P O B T B S P T B O B T P O P T P O B T B S P T B O P H P O P H B O B T P O P T B O B T P O P T P O B T B S P T P O P H P O B T P S P T P S P T P S P T Here is a round by round review of Sample Game 1 Round 1. We start the game without observing any previous outcomes. This is an acceptable procedure where you don t have any previous outcomes available. When you start a game in an online casino you won t have any previous outcomes available. We start the game using the S pattern and betting on P. You could have just as easily used the O pattern and bet on either P or B. We lose our bet. 9

10 Round 2. Following a loss we change our betting pattern from S to O. With the O pattern we bet on the opposite of the last decision and we wager on B. We raise our Target C bet to Level-2, bet $8 on B and win the round. Round 3. Following a win with stick with the same betting pattern of O and wager that the opposite of the last decision of B will show, betting on P. With a winning T-2 bet we drop back to a T-1 bet, wagering $5 on P. We win the round. Round 4. With a win we keep the O betting pattern and bet on the opposite of the last decision of P, betting on P. We continue Target C betting repeating a $5 Level-1 bet. We lose the bet. Round 5. A loss triggers a change in betting pattern from O to S. We bet that P which won in Round 4 will repeat. Following the loss of a T-1 bet we increase our bet to T-2, wagering $8 on P. We lose the bet. Round 6. Following a loss we change betting patterns from S to O and wager the opposite of the last round, betting on B. Following two consecutive losing Target Bets we change betting mode to Hedge Betting and made a Level-1 Hedge Bet of $5 on B. We win the bet. Round 7. With a win we keep the betting pattern and stick with the O pattern, betting on P the opposite of the decision in Round 6. With the win of any Hedge Bet we revert to Target C betting at the level above the last losing T bet. We make a T-3 bet of $13 on P and win the bet. Round 8. Following a win we continue with the O Betting pattern, betting on the opposite of the Round 7 decision of P. Following the win of a Level-3 bet we drop back to Level-2, wagering $8 on B. We lose the bet. Round 9. With a lose we change our betting pattern from O to S and bet that P will repeat. We raise our bet to a T-3 bet and wager $13 on P. We lose the bet. Round 10. With a loss we shift betting patterns again changing back to the O pattern. Two consecutive losing Target bets signals a change to Hedge betting. We make a Level-1 Hedge Bet of $5 on P and lose. 10

11 Round 11. We have just had three consecutive losing rounds. This gives us an automatic signal to continue with the Round 10 betting pattern in this round. We keep the O betting pattern, betting on P. We raise our Hedge Bet one level and make an H-2 bet of $10 on P. We win the wager. Round 12. With a win we continue with our betting pattern of O betting on B for this round. The win of a Hedge Bet returns us to Target Betting, one level higher than the last Target Bet we lost. We make a T-4 bet of $20 on B and win the bet. Round 13. With a win we don t change betting pattern. We make an O pattern bet on P. We drop our wager to a T-3 bet and wager $13 on P. We win the round. Round 14. Following a win we stick with the betting pattern last used and we continue to use the O pattern. We drop to a T-1 bet having won two out of three T bets. We wager $5 on B and win. Round 15. Continuing with the O Betting Pattern we bet on P. We make another T-1 bet, wagering $5 on P and win the bet. Round 16. Still using the O Betting Pattern we make a $5 T-1 bet on B and lose. Round 17. With a loss we change our bet selection pattern back to S, betting that the last decision of P will repeat. We raise our bet one level and make an $8 T-2 bet on P and lose. Round 18. With a loss we change to the O betting pattern. Two consecutive losses changes our betting from the Target C Mode to the Hedge Mode. We make an H-1 bet of $5 on P and win. Round 19. Staying with the O betting pattern we wager on B, the opposite of the decision for Round 18. With a win of a Hedge bet we return to Target Betting moving up to a Level-3 bet of $13 on B. We lose the bet. Round 20. We change our betting pattern to S, betting on B. We move up to a T-4 bet of $20, betting $20 on P. We win the bet. 11

12 Round 21. Sticking with the S betting pattern we bet on P. We drop our bet one level and making a T-3 bet of $13 on P. We win the bet. Round 22. Following a win we keep the same betting mode of S, betting on P. Having won two consecutive T bets we drop to a Level-1 T-1 bet of $5 and win the bet. 12

13 Target Baccarat s Automatic Bet Tracker The Automatic Bet Tracker consists of a special tracking and recording form that you will use when you play. It is similar to the table used to present the Sample Game except that it is much simplified so that it is practical for recording your play as you go. On the next page you will find a blank Master Bet Tracker. 13

15 Explanation of How to Use the Automatic Bet Tracker: To set up the Automatic Bet Tracker you will want to fill in the information on the first line showing the Date, Location, Bet Unit ($5 for example), the Game Bankroll ($500 for $5 Betting Units) and the Target Win (you set the amount yourself, for example $50 for $5 betting) Target C Bets: Fill in amounts for level of betting. Hedge Bets: Fill in amounts for level of betting. Instead of filling in the amounts you may just want to use the Player Card for the level of Play and refer to it to make your bets. Bet Tracking and Control This is the heart of the Automatic Bet Tracker. Here you will record each round of play. The form is set up as follows: Round # - Number of round played. Not needed for actual play. Decision The outcome of either P for Player, B for Banker or T for Tie. Bet Pattern The Bet Pattern used where S = Same as prior decision and O = Opposite of prior decision Bet On Where we placed our wager for the round.

25 Tracking Bets Using Casino Chips You may not wish to use the Automatic Bet Tracker when you play baccarat in a landbased casino. You will certainly stand out if you are the only one at the table recording your play and the management may not stand for it. We determine where to bet using Tracker Bet Selection. Here we bet the Same (S) as the previous decision until we lose. Then we bet the Opposite of the previous decision till we lose. If we lose three in a row we repeat the last decision. If we wrote this down where we had three losses and then a win we would have: S (Lose) O (Lose) S (Lose) S (Win). We can track our mode of betting by using two different valued chips to represent our betting patterns. We could use a $1 chip to represent betting S and a $5 chip to represent betting O. As we bet we place a chip down to represent our betting mode. We by betting Same and we have: S If we win this bet we stick with the pattern and bet S again. The chips will be S S If we lose the second bet we change to the O pattern and we use a chip to stand for this pattern. Our chips are now: S S O. I usually these Tracker Chips up closest to me and use a maximum of three chips to track my betting pattern. I will remove the chip representing the oldest bet. Let s assume we win on the next round using the O pattern. If we just added another chip to represent using the O pattern again we would have: S S O O. Instead I remove the chip on the left (the chip representing my pattern four rounds ago) and I have S O O. In addition to using up to three chips to Track the betting pattern I will use two rows of chips to represent the amounts bet. We determine how much to bet using two different betting modes: Target Coup Betting and Hedge Betting. artarget Coup Bets (Shown for $5 Minimum Bets) 25

26 Level Bet After 2 Wins to Level Hedge Bets (Shown for $5 Minimum Bets) Level Bet I set my Chips up representing Target C bets closest to the betting boxes for baccarat. For round one I place the chips needed for two rounds of bets on the table as: 5 8. To make a bet I remove the $5 chip and place the bet with it. The $8 in chips tells me that I will have to wager $8 if I lose the first bet. If I win the first bet, I take the $5 won and place it with my general pile of chips. The $8 bet is left in place. Assume I lose the first bet of $5. I then take the $8 in chips and use them to bet. I know that if I win the bet I will drop my Target C bet to $5 so I place a $5 chip in the spot reserved for Target C chips. If I lose the $8 bet I will start making Hedge Bets. I set up the first two Hedge Bets in a spot below the area used for Target C bets. I will place chips standing for the first two levels of Hedge bets of 5 and 10. I remove the $5 chip and use it to bet. If I win the bet I immediately remove the Hedge chips and set up the next Target C bets of $13 and $20. If I lose the bet I make the next Hedge bet of $10 and add $15 in chips to the Hedge chips spot. For reference you should keep the Player Card handy for your level of bets. It shows you the bets for each Betting Series and you can use it to keep your Tracking chips straight. You will use chips to track each type of bet with one row for each type of bet. The rows we are referring to are just areas on the table where you place your chips. You will continue in this fashion. As you win bets place the winning is a separate chip pile reserved for general betting. 26

27 To keep track of your winnings keep your general chips organized by chip value, with black chips, green chips, red chips and while chips separated. After winning a coup you will want to take a quick chip count to see where you are. That s it. You have three rows of chips Tracker Chips, used for keeping track of your betting pattern. Target C Chips, used to track Target C bets and Hedge Chips, used to track Hedge bets. With a little practice you will find that you can play fast and accurately using chips to keep track of all aspects of the Target Baccarat strategy. 27
