I feel card counting is not effective in Baccarat for several reasons:Baccarat's dealing mechanism, where cards are drawn and discarded according to fixed rules, limits the potential for card counting and I think multiple decks are often shuffled together, making it difficult to track specific cards.

That's a valid perspective on why card counting may not be as effective in Baccarat compared to other card games like Blackjack. In Baccarat, as you mentioned, the dealing mechanism follows specific rules where cards are drawn and discarded in a predictable manner, such as drawing a third card based on predetermined rules for the Player and Banker hands.
Additionally, Baccarat typically uses multiple decks that are shuffled together, making it harder to track specific cards throughout the game. This continuous shuffling minimizes the impact of card counting strategies that rely on tracking specific cards to gain an edge over the house.
In games like Blackjack, where cards are dealt from a shoe and not reshuffled until the end of the round, card counting can be a more effective strategy as players can track high and low cards to adjust their bets accordingly. However, in Baccarat, the combination of fixed drawing rules and multiple shuffled decks makes it challenging for players to effectively apply card counting techniques to gain a significant advantage.
Overall, while some players may attempt to use card counting in Baccarat, the structured nature of the game and the use of multiple shuffled decks make it less conducive to this strategy compared to other card games like Blackjack.
