Shadowing Ellis at Hollywood Casino at Penn National Race Course
Here is a quick field report:
After a full day’s seminar and sharing a round of drinks and chicken wings with Ellis C. Davis, Keith Smith, Lori, Paul, Leo, and others in the BTC group, we went to play a few baccarat shoes at the Hollywood Casino at Penn National Race Course.
Ellis played two shoes, winning +10u in each for a +20u total for the night. It took around an hour or so.
I shadowed Ellis’ bets in the second shoe and won +10u for myself. Thanks, Ellis!
The shoes were as follows (up until coloring in):
Shoe 1: P41214132332211111322 (+10u)
Shoe 2: B1123113212111 (+10)
Next we head to Ellis’ old stomping grounds, Atlantic City.
A complete report about my trip to follow soon.

LOL. After the seminar, we had beers before and after we went to Hollywood.
Ellis is most sincere, genuine, considerate, helpful, and gracious. A truly first-class guy.
He really knows his stuff, and he puts his money where his mouth is.
More soon; getting ready for AC now.

[...] Including the 2 shoes from yesterday at Hollywood Casino at Penn National Race Course in PA, Ellis won all 6 out of the 6 shoes I witnessed him play. Total units won over the 2 days: +55u. The lowest drawdown was -1u for all but two shoes: the first on in PA, which had a -3u drawdown, and the last shoe in AC, which had a -4u drawdown. Our bankroll was always 20u, though in hindsight, we would have done just as well with far less. [...]

[...] As I had briefly relayed in my previous two posts (Shadowing Ellis and Ellis and I Take on Atlantic City), Ellis convincingly demonstrated to me with real money in live play that he can consistently win at baccarat. Thanks to him, I am a little wealthier today in terms of chips, experience, and perspective. [...]
