Ok, I have to see if others have had any success using the martingale system on the TIE bet in baccarat. Since it pays 8-1, you can bet 1 unit 8 times in a row and winning on the 8th hand you win 1 unit. If you lose then on the 9th-18th you bet 2 units and so on. On the 18th hand, you still win 1 unit, but if you win on the 9th hand you win 7 units. going to the next group of 8 and so on until you win.
Betting $5 8 times, then $10 8 times, then $20 8 times then $40 8 times = $600 bank roll
However, each win will win you from $5 to $40 helping to close the gap of losses on a losing streak. I have had two ties in a row, that's a $80 win.
Since a tie occurs about 9% or close to 1 in 11 hands, to lose $600 would be 32 hands in a row without a tie.
I have been practicing and never hit the 32 hands, though I have been in the $40 betting area but never busted starting out with a $600 bank.
If you have plenty of time, you can extend this to watch for no tie for 8 hands, then start betting, and the amount of hands needing to come in without a tie would now be 40. You will reduce the amount of times you win, but will decrease your chances of a losing streak.
I am sure the game has had 40 hands go without a tie. The luck on your part is that you are not betting when that occurs, and I would guess it doesn't occur that often.

I have found that if you bet the 'Tie' after either a Banker win or a Player win it will hit 9.5% of the time. My system is free and only requires you to find a table that pays 11 to 1 for the Tie and you will get rich.

If you start betting 10 after 8 losses, then if you lose 7 more before winning, your total losses before your win are 8 x 5 + 7 x 10 = 110, and your win only makes 80, so you are still 30 behind after your win. Even if you bet 15 instead of 10, 15 losses would be 8 x 5 + 7 x 15 = 145, and your win would only be 120. In fact, you would have to bet 41 or more in order to make money even after 15 losses. (If you bet 5 on your first 8 and N on your next 8, then 15 losses = 40 + 7N, and your win = 8N, so 8N > 7N + 40 in order for you to come out ahead.) If you do lose 16 in a row, the next 8 bets have to be more than (8 x (5 + your level 2 bet)), which is a bet of at least 369. (8 bets of 5 followed by 8 bets of 41 followed by 7 bets of 368 is 40 + 328 + 2576 = 2944, and a bet of 368 that wins makes 2944, so you break even.) Should you happen to lose 24 in a row, with bets of 5, 41, and 369, you are now 3320 behind, and need to bet 26,561 per bet in order to make money in the next eight - OOPS, the table maximum is less than that, isn't it?
'I would guess it doesn't occur that often' reminds me of the joke about the girl who was selling $500 glasses of lemonade. When told she wouldn't get many customers at that price, she replied, 'True, but it only needs to happen once.'

I usually win when I play baccarat. I wait for the others to make their wagers, then I'd bet the opposite of them. If they freak out and yell -- it's a sure winner (sometimes). If they don't freak out and yell, you still have a decent chance to win, but should pull your bet. You don't want to get greedy.
