Baccarat Codes

Baccarat chemin de fer is gambled on with eight decks in a shoe. Cards valued less than ten are counted at their printed number while at the same time Ten, Jack, Queen, King are zero, and A is one. Wagers are made on the ‘bank’, the ‘player’, or for a tie (these are not actual people; they just represent the 2 hands that are dealt).

Two cards are given to both the ‘banker’ and ‘player’. The value for every hand is the total of the cards, but the first number is ignored. For instance, a hand of five and six has a score of one (5 plus six equals eleven; ignore the first ‘1′).

A third card may be given depending on the following rules:

- If the player or bank achieves a score of eight or 9, both players hold.

- If the gambler has less than 5, she hits. Players holds otherwise.

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

Punto Banco Odds

The greater of the two totals wins. Winning bets on the banker payout nineteen to Twenty (equal cash minus a 5% commission. The Rake is recorded and paid off once you depart the table so be sure to still have cash left over before you leave). Winning wagers on the gambler pay 1:1. Winning bets for a tie frequently pays out at eight to one but occasionally 9 to 1. (This is a poor bet as a tie occurs less than one in every 10 hands. Be cautious of betting on a tie. However odds are substantially better for 9:1 versus 8:1)

Gambled on properly baccarat chemin de fer provides relatively good odds, apart from the tie wager of course.

Baccarat Banque Strategy

As with all games baccarat chemin de fer has a few accepted myths. One of which is similar to a myth in roulette. The past isn’t a prophecy of future actions. Tracking past outcomes at a table is a waste of paper and an insult to the tree that gave its life for our stationary desires.

The most established and likely the most acknowledged strategy is the one-three-two-six tactic. This tactic is employed to maximize profits and minimizing losses.

Begin by wagering 1 unit. If you succeed, add 1 more to the 2 on the game table for a grand total of three units on the second bet. If you succeed you will now have six on the table, subtract four so you keep two on the 3rd round. Should you succeed on the 3rd bet, add two on the 4 on the table for a sum total of 6 on the 4th round.

If you lose on the 1st wager, you take a hit of one. A profit on the first bet followed by a loss on the 2nd brings about a loss of two. Wins on the initial 2 with a defeat on the 3rd provides you with a gain of two. And wins on the initial 3 with a hit on the 4th means you break even. Winning at all 4 bets leaves you with 12, a profit of 10. This means you are able to lose the second round five instances for every successful streak of 4 bets and in the end, break even.
