There isn’t any logical reason why this is. Overall, players have no control over the outcome of the game. This means there is no skill required to master the game of baccarat. Only luck and chance determines what will happen and ultimately who will win: the house (casino) or the player.Bending the cards or “squeezing them out” is done for the purpose of making them unusable, resulting in drama and excitement for both players and spectators. However, it’s not a useful strategy. It simply just provides players with something to do as the game transpires.
