Baccarat Rules and Strategy
Baccarat Banque Policies
Punto banco is bet on with 8 decks in a dealing shoe. Cards valued less than ten are worth face value and with 10, J, Q, K are zero, and A is 1. Bets are placed on the ‘bank’, the ‘player’, or on a tie (these aren’t really people; they just represent the two hands to be dealt).
Two cards are dealt to both the ‘house’ and ‘player’. The total for every hand is the sum of the cards, although the 1st digit is ignored. For instance, a hand of five and 6 has a total of one (five plus 6 = eleven; drop the first ‘1′).
A 3rd card could be given out using the rules below:
- If the player or bank has a value of 8 or 9, both players stand.
- If the player has less than 5, she takes a card. Players stands otherwise.
- If the player stands, the banker hits on 5 or less. If the player hits, a chart is employed to see if the bank stands or takes a card.

The higher of the 2 totals wins. Winning wagers on the bank pay out 19:20 (equal cash less a 5% rake. Commission are tracked and cleared out when you leave the table so be sure to have money remaining just before you depart). Winning bets on the player pay one to one. Winning bets for tie usually pay 8:1 but on occasion 9 to 1. (This is a bad bet as ties happen lower than 1 in every ten rounds. Be cautious of putting money on a tie. Although odds are substantially greater for 9 to 1 vs. 8 to 1)
Wagered on properly punto banco gives fairly decent odds, apart from the tie wager of course.
Baccarat Method
As with all games baccarat banque has quite a few general false impressions. One of which is close to a false impression in roulette. The past is not a prophecy of events about to happen. Keeping track of past outcomes on a page of paper is a waste of paper and an insult to the tree that was cut down for our stationary needs.
The most established and almost certainly the most accomplished method is the 1-3-2-6 tactic. This plan is deployed to pump up winnings and minimizing risk.
Start by betting 1 unit. If you succeed, add 1 more to the two on the game table for a sum of three dollars on the second bet. Should you win you will now have 6 on the table, subtract 4 so you are left with two on the 3rd bet. Should you win the third bet, deposit 2 on the 4 on the game table for a total of 6 on the fourth bet.
Should you do not win on the first wager, you take a loss of one. A win on the initial wager followed by a hit on the 2nd brings about a hit of 2. Wins on the initial 2 with a loss on the 3rd gives you with a take of 2. And wins on the initial three with a defeat on the fourth means you break even. Winning all 4 wagers leaves you with 12, a profit of 10. This means you can lose the 2nd round 5 instances for every successful streak of four bets and still experience no loss.
