This strange, deeply dramatic process is universally known in the casino world as "squeezing" the cards, and it is the absolute soul of high-stakes Baccarat.

+The Psychology and Superstition of the Squeeze +
Baccarat is a game requiring absolutely zero intellectual skill; the player makes no decisions other than choosing to bet on the "Player" or the "Banker."

The art of the squeeze relies entirely on recognizing the specific geometric layout of the ink "pips" (the suit symbols) printed on standard casino playing cards.

If they see three pips ("three legs"), the card is a 6, 7, or 8, which is exactly what a Baccarat player desperately wants to see.
+The Financial Reality of the Squeeze +
In any other casino game, like Blackjack or Poker, physically bending or damaging a card is a severe offense that will result in immediate ejection from the property.
