Rules of Baccarat


Baccarat Rules

Baccarat is played with 8 decks of cards. Cards valued less than ten are worth their printed value while at the same time ten, J, Q, K are 0, and A are each applied a value of 1. Bets are placed upon the ‘banker,’ the ‘player’ or for a tie (these aren’t actual players; they merely symbolize the two hands to be dealt).

2 hands of 2 cards will then be dealt to the ‘banker’ … ‘player’. The total for each hand will be the total of the two cards, but the very first digit is dropped. For example, a hand of 7 … 5 produces a score of 2 (sevenplus5=twelve; drop the ‘one’).

A third card could be given out depending on the foll. codes:

- If the gambler or banker has a total score of eight or 9, each bettors stand.

- If the player has five or less, he/she hits. bettors stand otherwise.

- If bettor stands, the banker hits of five or lesser. If the player hits, a chart shall be used to determine if the banker stands or hits.

Baccarat Odds

The greater of the two scores wins. Successful bets on the banker pay out 19 to 20 (even money less a 5 percent commission. Commission is tracked and paid out when you leave the table so be sure to have funds left before you leave). Winning bets on the player pay 1 to one. Winner bets for tie customarily pay out 8 to 1 but occasionally nine to one. (This is an awful gamble as ties happen less than 1 every 10 hands. abstain from wagering on a tie. Regardless odds are thoroughly better – nine to one versus 8 to 1)

When done smartly, baccarat presents fairly decent odds, apart from the tie bet of course.

Baccarat Strategy

As with just about all games, Baccarat has some common misconceptions. One of which is close to a misconception of roulette. The past is in no way an actual indicator of future events. Tracking of past outcomes on a chart is undoubtedly a complete waste of paper … an insult to the tree that gave its life to be used as our stationary.

The most established and almost certainly most successful tactic is the 1-three-two-six concept. This method is employed to build up profits and limiting risk.

start by wagering 1 unit. If you win, add 1 more to the 2 on the table for a total of 3 on the second bet. If you win you will have 6 on the table, take away 4 so you have two on the 3rd gamble. If you win the 3rd wager, add 2 to the 4 on the table for a value of 6 on the fourth gamble.

If you lose on the 1st bet, you take a loss of one. A win on the first bet quickly followed by loss on the 2nd brings about a loss of two. Wins on the 1st 2 with a loss on the 3rd gives you a profit of 2. And wins on the first three with a loss on the fourth mean you break even. Coming out on top on all four bets leaves you with 12, a profit of ten. In other words that you can get beaten the second bet 5 times for every successful streak of four bets and still break even.
