I just realized that I must be mildly retarded because I have no idea how to play baccarat.

Don't understand why baccarat is the hardest game to surveil. It's blackjack but the number is 9, not 21. I learned how to play at Monte Carlo, what a great memory.

Not really close...there's no strategy in baccarat. In baccarat you have only 3 choices...banker, player or tie. In blackjack there is myriad of choices, with proper strategy to maximize the return.

Because there is a few ways to cheat the game if it’s not watched under constant scrutiny.

This is wrong. The House is usually a winner but not the ONLY winner. Many people have made their living for years winning from casinos. If they aren't winners, why do casinos routinely toss them out?

What essentially happens is the suckers lose and the casinos and APs (advantage players) chop it. The APs cut is in the millions, and the casinos cut is the remaining billions. If it wasn't for the suckers, both the casinos and APs would be out of business.

I said the the house is "usually" a winner because a few casinos consistently lost money, causing the owners to at least shutter or sell off the assets of that location, and in some cases file bankruptcy.

Watch my lips The HOUSE is the only winner in the long run.

Casinos would not stay open if that were not a fact. Seems like a no brainer.

Note they are looking for "advantaged" players. Meaning, they don't want anyone to play who knows how to beat them at their own games.

I don't know how to play it either, and I am also not interested. I will stick to my video keno or brain dead slots.

I've had baccarat explained to me many times and I still don't get it. Maybe it's too simple, and maybe if I actually played it I'd get it, but I don't even know if I pronounce it correctly.
