Baccarat Codes

Punto banco is wagered on with 8 decks of cards in a shoe. Cards valued less than 10 are counted at their printed number while at the same time 10, J, Q, K are zero, and A is one. Wagers are made on the ‘banker’, the ‘player’, or for a tie (these are not actual people; they simply represent the 2 hands that are dealt).

Two cards are dealt to both the ‘house’ and ‘gambler’. The value for each hand is the sum total of the cards, but the first digit is discarded. For example, a hand of five and six has a score of one (five plus six equals eleven; ignore the initial ‘one’).

A 3rd card may be given using the rules below:

- If the player or bank has a total of 8 or 9, both players stand.

- If the gambler has less than five, he hits. Players otherwise stand.

- If the player holds, the bank hits on a total less than five. If the gambler hits, a guide is used to figure out if the bank holds or hits.

Baccarat Chemin de Fer Odds

The bigger of the 2 totals wins. Winning wagers on the bank pay out nineteen to Twenty (equal cash minus a 5% rake. Commission are recorded and paid off once you depart the table so make sure you still have money left just before you leave). Winning bets on the gambler pay 1 to 1. Winning bets for a tie normally pays out at eight to one but sometimes 9 to 1. (This is a bad bet as a tie occurs lower than one in every ten rounds. Be cautious of wagering on a tie. Although odds are substantially greater for 9 to 1 vs. 8 to 1)

Gambled on correctly baccarat chemin de fer provides pretty decent odds, aside from the tie wager of course.

Baccarat Chemin de Fer Course of Action

As with all games Baccarat has a few familiar false impressions. One of which is close to a myth in roulette. The past isn’t a fore-teller of events about to happen. Keeping track of previous results on a sheet of paper is a waste of paper and a snub to the tree that surrendered its life for our stationary desires.

The most familiar and likely the most accomplished strategy is the 1-3-2-6 method. This technique is used to maximize winnings and limit losses.

Start by placing one unit. If you succeed, add one more to the 2 on the table for a total of three units on the second bet. If you succeed you will have 6 on the game table, take away four so you are left with two on the third wager. Should you come away with a win on the 3rd bet, add 2 to the 4 on the game table for a total of six on the 4th round.

If you don’t win on the 1st wager, you take a loss of one. A profit on the first wager followed by a loss on the 2nd causes a loss of two. Wins on the initial two with a loss on the third gives you with a gain of 2. And wins on the 1st 3 with a hit on the fourth means you balance the books. Winning at all 4 wagers gives you with twelve, a gain of ten. This means you will be able to squander the second bet five instances for each favorable streak of 4 wagers and in the end, break even.
