Baccarat Standards

Baccarat banque is wagered on with 8 decks of cards in a shoe. Cards below 10 are counted at their printed number while at the same time 10, J, Q, K are zero, and Ace is 1. Wagers are placed on the ‘bank’, the ‘player’, or on a tie (these are not actual people; they simply represent the two hands to be dealt).

Two cards are given to both the ‘house’ and ‘player’. The score for every hand is the sum total of the cards, however the 1st number is dumped. For example, a hand of five and six has a score of one (5 plus six equals 11; drop the initial ‘one’).

A 3rd card will be given out based on the rules below:

- If the player or banker gets a total of eight or 9, the two players hold.

- If the player has 5 or less, he takes a card. Players otherwise hold.

- If the gambler holds, the banker takes a card on 5 or less. If the player hits, a chart is used to see if the banker stays or hits.

Punto Banco Odds

The larger of the 2 hands wins. Winning bets on the house pay out 19 to 20 (even money minus a 5% rake. The Rake is kept track of and cleared out when you quit the table so ensure you still have cash around just before you quit). Winning wagers on the player pays out at 1:1. Winning wagers for tie usually pays 8 to 1 but on occasion 9 to 1. (This is a awful wager as a tie occurs lower than one in every ten rounds. Be cautious of betting on a tie. Although odds are astonishingly better for 9:1 vs. eight to one)

Gambled on correctly punto banco gives fairly decent odds, aside from the tie bet of course.

Baccarat Chemin de Fer Strategy

As with all games baccarat chemin de fer has some common false impressions. One of which is the same as a misunderstanding in roulette. The past isn’t a prophecy of events yet to happen. Keeping score of past outcomes on a sheet of paper is a bad use of paper and a snub to the tree that gave its life for our paper desires.

The most accepted and possibly the most successful scheme is the one, three, two, six tactic. This method is used to pump up earnings and minimizing losses.

Begin by betting one unit. If you succeed, add another to the two on the table for a grand total of 3 dollars on the second bet. If you win you will retain six on the game table, subtract 4 so you are left with two on the 3rd wager. If you come away with a win on the third bet, put down 2 to the 4 on the table for a sum total of 6 on the fourth wager.

Should you don’t win on the initial wager, you take a hit of one. A profit on the initial wager followed by a hit on the second causes a loss of 2. Success on the 1st 2 with a defeat on the third provides you with a take of two. And wins on the initial three with a loss on the fourth means you balance the books. Succeeding at all 4 rounds gives you with twelve, a gain of 10. This means you will be able to give up the 2nd round 5 times for each favorable run of four bets and still break even.
