This book tells a lot of stories about playing baccarat, and includes some of his own adventures at the baccarat table. It does not analyze any systems, and the author only tells about his own system. He includes a lot of scoring cards that he played at baccarat which are quite informative, but does not explain how the cards work clearly enough. I had to figure them out for myself. Overall, it was a fair book.

I found gambling stories in this book that I never heard of.
As to making money playing baccarat its still about a 50-50 chance. You have to get lucky, and Stewart admits it. With a large bankroll I believe you can make money if you are patient and will accept small pay offs. Outlines story of Australian
millionaire that beat Las Vegas but does not go into specifics of exactle how he did it

This nicely produced book contains stories from the author's personal experience with baccarat and a table summarising data from 160 shoes. His "rule of three", unfortunately, is NOT supported by the data. Thus the merit of the book is limited. Kayser's book is more useful.

Although this book does not recommend any specific system to employ at the tables, it does however give the reader a breakdown of result occurence (banker, player) which could be used when anticipating the best time to place a bet.

Lyle Stuart does it again, shining light on the world of gambling, true tales of instant wealth and even faster ruin. Stuart is one of the foremost authorities on Baccarat and gambling, winning several world champion Baccarat games and going home with hundreds of thousands of dollars in winnings.

Lyle tells you the odds, how to beat them and how to walk away before they turn against you.

Lyles Stuart tells not only how to win at Baccarat but more importantly how not to lose your shirt. Lyle is a world champion Baccarat player and actually plays exactly how he writes with enthusiasm and passion, balanced by common sense.

This incredible book gives an insider's view of both the game and the world of gambling. His stories will have you laughing and grimacing from one moment to the next as he tells of millions lost and won.

As a gambling authority, Mr. Stuart, is often called on to help casinos protect themselves from cardcheats and cons. He tells you exactly which games to play for the best odds and which to run from with wallet gripped firmly in hand.

All in all this is one of the best baccarat and gambling books I have ever read.
