Baccarat Banque Regulations and Strategy
Baccarat Chemin de Fer Rules
Baccarat is wagered on with 8 decks of cards in a dealer’s shoe. Cards under 10 are worth face value while at the same time Ten, Jack, Queen, King are zero, and Ace is 1. Wagers are placed on the ‘banker’, the ‘player’, or on a tie (these are not really people; they just represent the 2 hands that are dealt).
Two cards are dealt to both the ‘bank’ and ‘player’. The total for each hand is the sum total of the 2 cards, although the first number is discarded. For example, a hand of five and six has a value of one (5 plus six equals 11; drop the first ‘one’).
A 3rd card will be dealt based on the following rules:
- If the gambler or banker achieves a score of 8 or nine, both players stay.
- If the gambler has less than five, she hits. Players holds otherwise.
- If the player holds, the banker hits on a total lower than five. If the gambler takes a card, a table is used to see if the banker stays or hits.
Baccarat Banque Odds
The greater of the 2 totals wins. Winning wagers on the bank pay out 19:20 (even payout less a 5 percent commission. The Rake is recorded and cleared out once you leave the game so be sure to still have money left before you quit). Winning wagers on the player pays one to one. Winning wagers for a tie typically pays eight to one but sometimes 9 to 1. (This is a bad wager as ties occur lower than 1 in every ten hands. Be wary of wagering on a tie. However odds are substantially greater for 9 to 1 vs. 8:1)
Gambled on correctly punto banco gives generally good odds, aside from the tie wager of course.
Punto Banco Scheme
As with all games punto banco has a few accepted myths. One of which is close to a misunderstanding in roulette. The past isn’t a fore-teller of events about to happen. Recording past results at a table is a bad use of paper and an insult to the tree that gave its life for our paper needs.
The most familiar and likely the most successful scheme is the one-three-two-six tactic. This plan is employed to pump up earnings and minimizing risk.
Begin by betting 1 dollar. If you succeed, add one more to the 2 on the table for a total of 3 chips on the second bet. Should you win you will have 6 on the game table, take away 4 so you are left with two on the third round. Should you succeed on the third round, add two on the four on the game table for a total of 6 on the fourth bet.
Should you do not win on the initial round, you take a loss of 1. A profit on the 1st wager followed by a hit on the second brings about a loss of 2. Success on the first 2 with a defeat on the third provides you with a take of 2. And wins on the 1st 3 with a loss on the 4th means you break even. Winning at all 4 rounds leaves you with 12, a gain of ten. This means you will be able to squander the second round five times for every successful streak of four bets and in the end, balance the books.
