Punto Banco Codes
Baccarat banque is wagered on with 8 decks in a shoe. Cards under ten are worth their printed value and with 10, J, Q, K are zero, and Ace is 1. Wagers are made on the ‘bank’, the ‘player’, or for a tie (these are not really people; they simply represent the two hands that are dealt).
Two cards are given to both the ‘house’ and ‘player’. The value for every hand is the sum of the 2 cards, although the first number is ignored. For example, a hand of five and 6 has a value of one (five plus six equals 11; drop the 1st ‘1′).
A third card can be given based on the following rules:
- If the player or house achieves a total of 8 or 9, the two players stay.
- If the player has five or lower, he hits. Players stands otherwise.
- If the gambler stays, the house takes a card on 5 or lower. If the player hits, a table is used to figure out if the banker holds or takes a card.
Punto Banco Odds
The bigger of the two hands wins. Winning wagers on the banker payout 19 to 20 (equal cash minus a 5% rake. The Rake is kept track of and paid off once you leave the table so be sure to still have funds remaining just before you quit). Winning bets on the player pays 1 to 1. Winning bets for a tie frequently pay 8 to 1 but occasionally 9:1. (This is a poor bet as a tie occurs lower than 1 in every 10 hands. Be cautious of betting on a tie. However odds are astonishingly greater for 9 to 1 versus 8 to 1)
Bet on correctly baccarat banque gives generally decent odds, apart from the tie wager of course.
Baccarat Banque Strategy
As with all games baccarat banque has quite a few common myths. One of which is close to a myth in roulette. The past is not a harbinger of future outcomes. Tracking previous outcomes on a sheet of paper is a bad use of paper and a snub to the tree that surrendered its life for our paper desires.
The most common and definitely the most accomplished strategy is the 1-3-2-6 plan. This technique is employed to pump up winnings and minimizing losses.
Begin by wagering one dollar. If you succeed, add one more to the 2 on the game table for a total of 3 units on the second bet. Should you succeed you will now have six on the table, take away four so you keep two on the 3rd wager. If you come away with a win on the third round, put down 2 to the 4 on the game table for a grand total of six on the fourth round.
Should you lose on the 1st wager, you take a loss of 1. A profit on the 1st wager followed by a loss on the 2nd creates a hit of two. Success on the first 2 with a hit on the 3rd provides you with a profit of 2. And success on the first three with a hit on the 4th means you break even. Succeeding at all four bets gives you with twelve, a take of ten. This means you will be able to not win on the second round five instances for each favorable run of 4 wagers and still break even.
