Baccarat Policies and Method
Punto Banco Principles
Baccarat chemin de fer is played with eight decks of cards in a dealing shoe. Cards under 10 are valued at their printed number and with Ten, Jack, Queen, King are zero, and Ace is 1. Bets are made on the ‘banker’, the ‘player’, or for a tie (these are not really people; they simply represent the 2 hands to be dealt).
Two cards are dealt to both the ‘house’ and ‘player’. The total for each hand is the total of the cards, although the first digit is discarded. For instance, a hand of 5 and six has a score of one (5 plus six equals eleven; dump the first ‘one’).
A 3rd card may be given out using the following rules:
- If the gambler or house gets a total of 8 or 9, both players stay.
- If the gambler has 5 or lower, she takes a card. Players holds otherwise.
- If the player stands, the house hits on a value lower than 5. If the player hits, a chart is used to decide if the bank stands or takes a card.
Baccarat Chemin de Fer Odds
The higher of the two totals wins. Winning bets on the house pay out nineteen to Twenty (even payout less a five percent commission. The Rake is recorded and cleared out once you depart the game so be sure to still have cash around before you head out). Winning bets on the gambler pays 1 to 1. Winning bets for tie frequently pay 8 to 1 but occasionally 9:1. (This is a poor bet as ties occur lower than 1 in every ten hands. Avoid putting money on a tie. Although odds are substantially better for 9:1 vs. 8:1)
Gambled on correctly baccarat chemin de fer gives fairly good odds, aside from the tie bet of course.
Baccarat Chemin de Fer Strategy
As with all games Baccarat has a handful of general myths. One of which is the same as a misunderstanding in roulette. The past is not an indicator of events yet to happen. Tracking past outcomes on a sheet of paper is a waste of paper and an insult to the tree that was cut down for our stationary needs.
The most familiar and probably the most successful strategy is the one-three-two-six technique. This plan is employed to maximize profits and limit losses.
Start by betting one chip. If you win, add another to the two on the game table for a sum total of 3 dollars on the second bet. If you win you will retain six on the game table, take away four so you keep two on the 3rd bet. If you succeed on the 3rd wager, put down 2 to the 4 on the table for a grand total of 6 on the 4th bet.
Should you don’t win on the first bet, you take a loss of 1. A profit on the initial round followed by a loss on the 2nd brings about a loss of two. Success on the 1st 2 with a loss on the third provides you with a take of 2. And success on the first three with a defeat on the 4th means you balance the books. Succeeding at all 4 rounds leaves you with 12, a take of 10. This means you can give up the second bet 5 times for each successful run of four wagers and still balance the books.
