Punto Banco Codes
Baccarat banque is gambled on with 8 decks in a dealing shoe. Cards below 10 are counted at face value and with 10, J, Q, K are zero, and A is 1. Wagers are placed on the ‘banker’, the ‘player’, or on a tie (these are not really people; they simply represent the two 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 two cards, however the 1st digit is ignored. For instance, a hand of 5 and 6 has a value of one (5 plus 6 = 11; ignore the initial ‘one’).
A third card may be dealt depending on the following rules:
- If the player or bank gets a total of 8 or 9, the two players stand.
- If the gambler has less than 5, he hits. Players otherwise hold.
- If the gambler stays, the house hits on a total less than five. If the gambler hits, a table is employed to figure out if the bank holds or hits.
Baccarat Chemin de Fer Odds
The bigger of the 2 hands wins. Winning wagers on the banker payout nineteen to Twenty (even money less a 5% commission. The Rake is recorded and paid off once you quit the table so be sure to still have cash remaining just before you depart). Winning bets on the gambler pay 1:1. Winning bets for tie usually pay eight to one but on occasion 9 to 1. (This is a poor wager as ties occur less than one in every 10 rounds. Be cautious of putting money on a tie. However odds are substantially better for 9:1 versus 8 to 1)
Played correctly baccarat banque gives relatively good odds, apart from the tie bet of course.
Baccarat Method
As with all games baccarat chemin de fer has a handful of familiar myths. One of which is similar to a misconception in roulette. The past isn’t a prophecy of events about to happen. Keeping score of previous outcomes on a chart is a waste of paper and a snub to the tree that surrendered its life for our stationary desires.
The most established and probably the most favorable strategy is the one, three, two, six plan. This tactic is used to maximize profits and minimizing losses.
Begin by placing one chip. If you succeed, add another to the two on the table for a sum of three chips on the second bet. Should you win you will now have 6 on the game table, pull off four so you have two on the third wager. If you succeed on the third round, put down 2 to the four on the game table for a grand total of 6 on the fourth bet.
Should you do not win on the first round, you take a hit of one. A win on the initial wager followed by a hit on the second brings about a hit of 2. Success on the initial 2 with a loss on the third provides you with a gain of 2. And wins on the initial three with a defeat on the 4th means you break even. Winning all four rounds gives you with twelve, a gain of ten. This means you are able to not win on the 2nd round 5 times for every successful run of four wagers and still balance the books.
