The squeeze starts at the top of the card. Tug at its two upper corners to cover the number, while revealing the card’s suite: spades, hearts, diamonds or clubs. As you draw further with your fingers, you’ll start picking up on additional details. If you see parts of a picture, then you have a J, Q or K. All of these are valued at zero in Baccarat, meaning you can end the squeeze early. It clearly didn’t work this time!
After squeezing more than a third of the card, you should have an idea of what you’re holding. If you still can’t see anything, you’ve probably got an ace in your hand. Otherwise, it’s time to slowly start turning the card around. You still use your thumbs to cover the numbers, while slowly revealing the symbols. It creates a lot of suspense, especially if you’re split between drawing a nine or a ten!
