Baccarat Banque Practices and Strategy


Punto Banco Principles

Baccarat banque is wagered on with 8 decks in a dealing shoe. Cards under ten are counted at face value and with Ten, Jack, Queen, King are zero, and Ace is one. Bets are placed on the ‘banker’, the ‘player’, or on a tie (these aren’t actual people; they just represent the two hands to be dealt).

Two cards are given to both the ‘bank’ and ‘player’. The value for each hand is the sum total of the cards, although the beginning digit is discarded. For instance, a hand of five and 6 has a score of 1 (5 plus 6 = eleven; dump the 1st ‘1′).

A additional card can be given using the rules below:

- If the gambler or bank achieves a value of eight or nine, the two players stand.

- If the gambler has 5 or less, she takes a card. Players stays otherwise.

- If the gambler holds, the bank hits on a total lower than five. If the player hits, a guide is used to determine if the house holds or takes a card.

Baccarat Banque Odds

The better of the 2 hands wins. Winning wagers on the bank payout 19:20 (even money minus a 5 percent commission. Commission are kept track of and paid off when you leave the game so be sure to still have money around just before you depart). Winning wagers on the gambler pays 1 to 1. Winning wagers for tie typically pays out at 8 to 1 but occasionally 9:1. (This is a bad wager as a tie occurs lower than 1 in every 10 hands. Be wary of gambling on a tie. However odds are astonishingly better for 9 to 1 vs. 8:1)

Wagered on properly punto banco provides fairly decent odds, aside from the tie bet of course.

Baccarat Chemin de Fer Method

As with all games baccarat banque has quite a few accepted myths. One of which is similar to a misunderstanding in roulette. The past isn’t an indicator of future events. Keeping score of past outcomes on a chart is a waste of paper and a snub to the tree that gave its life for our stationary needs.

The most common and possibly the most favorable plan is the one, three, two, six method. This tactic is used to build up winnings and limit losses.

Start by wagering one chip. If you win, add one more to the 2 on the table for a sum of 3 units on the second bet. Should you succeed you will hold 6 on the game table, remove 4 so you keep 2 on the 3rd bet. Should you win the 3rd round, add 2 on the 4 on the game table for a sum total of six on the 4th round.

Should you do not win on the initial wager, you take a loss of 1. A profit on the 1st round followed by a loss on the second brings about a hit of 2. Wins on the first 2 with a loss on the 3rd gives you with a gain of two. And wins on the first 3 with a defeat on the 4th means you break even. Winning at all four rounds gives you with twelve, a gain of 10. This means you can give up the 2nd wager 5 times for every favorable streak of 4 bets and still balance the books.
