"Maybe you remember the Russian fable Cinderella. If the shoe fits, wear it."-Chekhov,
Star Trek VI: The Undiscovered Country
Cinderella may have been the only beautiful woman at the ball wearing tiny glass slippers, but very few perpetrators wear shoes that are very easily identifiable. Most shoes are produced in large quantities and in a wide assortment of shapes and sizes to cater to different ######es and age groups. This makes matching a perpetrator to a shoeprint very challenging. For starters, crime scene investigators (CSI's) begin by identifying the size and manufacturer of a shoe prior to dealing with the characteristics that make the track unique. These characteristics include debris left behind, wear patterns, and damage. Shoeprints are very important to CSI's that the FBI works with shoe manufacturers to compile a database of sole patterns.
Your shoes travel across a wide variety of surfaces daily. These surfaces include hardwood, carpet, soft soil, tile, and rain-soaked or snow-covered sidewalks, for instance. As you walk, the soles of your shoes are scraped, and they pick up dirt, grease, oil, debris, and moisture. Much of this material then is deposited on other surfaces, leaving behind your unique shoeprints.
Shoeprints fall into three different classifications:
Patent
Patent is a term that means visible. These kinds of prints result from tracking through a medium like dirt, blood, or paint

Plastic
Walking through mud, snow, or other soft malleable mediums leaves
plastic, or three-dimensional, tracks.
Latent
Latent is the antithesis of
patent and refers to shoeprints that are invisible to the ########## eye. These shoeprints result when you transfer a thin layer of accumulated yet invisible oils and grime from the soles of your shoes to a hard medium, such as glass, pieces of newspaper

CSI TV shows, you will have a better understanding of what the CSI's talk about when they encounter footprints found at a crime scene.
The math types declare there is dependency in the baccarat game. Dependency means as the first half of the baccarat shoe is played it necessary determines the composition of the second half of the baccarat shoe. Therefore, we should be able to develop some edge over the house in the second part of the shoe since we already know which cards have been played in the first half of the shoe (of course we would have to keep track somehow to know this). Card counting pioneered and used successfully in blackjack was attemped in baccarat. The result was slightly positive but very disappointing as the player advantage was very very slight. My advise on baccarat card counting; don't waste your time, it won't work.
Other methods of extracting the "dependency" from the baccarat game have been explored.
Dr. S.H. Johnson performed extensive computer research using large volumes of live baccarat data. He studied thousands of reoccuring patterns in relation to the dominence of the shoe (banker or player) at the time the pattern occurred. He was able to extract an advantage only slightly less than created by card counting in blackjack. Dr. Johnson reports the practical limitation of this baccarat strategy is the very infrequent occurence of betting opportunies. This strained the ############'s patience when he set out two thirds of a shoe before placing his advantaged play. The play required very large bets and a large bankroll to generate a modest profit. The good doctor concluded the strategy was more of a moral victory that a practical solution to taking the advantage in the baccarat game.
