Hello everyone, my name is George Joseph, and I am a veteran casino game analyst and security consultant with a career spanning several decades in the gaming industry, particularly in Las Vegas, the heart of casino operations. I specialize in the mathematical and procedural analysis of card games, with a strong focus on Baccarat and Blackjack, and have worked extensively on identifying and mitigating threats related to advantage play and casino fraud. My expertise lies in dependent gaming trials, a concept I explored in depth in my publication “Can Baccarat Be Beaten by Card Counting”, which examines how the sequential nature of card dealing in Baccarat may offer marginal, but exploitable, shifts in odds for highly skilled players.
