Baccarat : What is the “Long Dragon” ?

Learning to read the scoreboard is an essential part of playing Baccarat well. By using the “Long Dragon” scoreboard in Baccarat, we can observe the patterns and speculate on the next few rounds of cards, in order to predict the trend of the next banker or player hand. However, there are many different methods for reading the scoreboard in Baccarat, and each method has its own interpretation depending on the viewer’s perspective. This can be difficult for beginners, but don’t worry. This article will discuss the “Long Dragon” scoreboard in Baccarat, which can increase your chances of winning once you learn how to use it.

Long dragon refers to the situation in baccarat where several consecutive rounds result in the same outcome, such as several consecutive banker or player wins. In the scorecard, banker wins are indicated by red circles and player wins by blue circles. When the same outcome occurs consecutively, a long strip of circles of the same color is formed on the scorecard, thus creating a “long dragon” pattern.

Definition of long dragon:

There is no correct answer as to how many consecutive rounds of banker or player wins are needed to define it as a long dragon. As mentioned at the beginning of this article, each type of scorecard has its own interpretation based on different perspectives. Some people believe that five consecutive wins can be considered a long dragon, while others believe that eight or more wins are needed. For beginners, finding the middle ground is sufficient, which means looking for six to seven consecutive wins.

Another type of long dragon:

The above describes the basic long dragon pattern, but some experienced baccarat players believe that as long as the scorecard shows a regular pattern, such as player, banker, player, banker, player, banker, or banker, banker, player, player, banker, banker, player, player, it can also be considered a long dragon. As long as players can profit by betting according to this formula, it is a good scorecard.

In addition to long dragon, there is also a “break dragon” pattern:

In a long dragon situation in baccarat, when the next round produces the opposite result of the long dragon pattern, it is called a “break dragon” pattern. For example, if there were seven consecutive player wins followed by a banker win, the banker win is considered a break dragon. When a break dragon pattern appears, it is recommended to take a break and wait for the next long dragon pattern to emerge before placing bets.

Assuming your own definition of a long dragon

Everyone has their own definition of a long dragon, but they are all based on the same concept, which is “a consecutive series of the same result.” But how can we predict or find possible long dragon situations? Sometimes we may mistakenly think that a long dragon is about to appear, but the streak is interrupted. To prevent this situation, you need to first determine your own definition of a long dragon. As I mentioned earlier, I usually consider 6-7 consecutive rounds as a long dragon. Using the concept of a six-round long dragon, I will teach you how to place bets:

For example, if the banker has won for five consecutive rounds, then I will use smaller bet amounts to bet on the banker in the sixth round. Conversely, if the player has won for the previous five rounds, I will still use smaller bet amounts to bet on the player in the sixth round. Using a small amount to test whether it is a long dragon is a very good way to minimize losses even if it is not a long dragon. But if it is a long dragon and you win, then you should increase your bet amount in the following rounds until the streak is interrupted.

What should you do if there is a tie?

When six consecutive rounds are won by the banker and a tie occurs in the next round, does the long dragon streak end? When a long dragon suddenly ends with a tie, the probability of the streak continuing in the next round is still very high, and there are very few instances of a streak ending. Therefore, if this situation occurs, you can continue to bet on the banker in the next round.
