Punto Banco Policies and Method


Baccarat Chemin de Fer Rules

Baccarat banque is wagered on with 8 decks in a dealing shoe. Cards under ten are worth their printed number and with Ten, Jack, Queen, King are zero, and Ace is 1. Wagers are made on the ‘bank’, the ‘player’, or for a tie (these aren’t actual people; they simply represent the two hands to be dealt).

Two cards are dealt to both the ‘house’ and ‘player’. The total for each hand is the sum total of the two cards, although the first digit is ignored. For example, a hand of five and 6 has a value of 1 (five plus six equals eleven; dump the 1st ‘one’).

A 3rd card could be given depending on the following rules:

- If the player or banker achieves a value of eight or nine, both players hold.

- If the player has less than five, she takes a card. Players otherwise stand.

- If the gambler holds, the house hits on a value less than five. If the gambler takes a card, a table is employed to figure out if the banker holds or hits.

Baccarat Chemin de Fer Odds

The larger of the 2 hands wins. Winning wagers on the bank pay out 19 to 20 (even money less a 5 percent commission. Commission are kept track of and cleared out once you leave the table so ensure you still have funds left before you leave). Winning bets on the gambler pay one to one. Winning bets for a tie typically pays eight to one but sometimes nine to one. (This is a poor wager as a tie occurs lower than one in every ten rounds. Avoid putting money on a tie. Although odds are astonishingly greater for 9 to 1 versus 8 to 1)

Played correctly punto banco offers fairly good odds, aside from the tie wager of course.

Punto Banco Strategy

As with all games baccarat chemin de fer has some familiar misconceptions. One of which is similar to a misconception in roulette. The past isn’t a prophecy of future outcomes. Recording previous results on a page of paper is a poor use of paper and an insult to the tree that gave its life for our paper needs.

The most familiar and possibly the most accomplished course of action is the 1-3-2-6 plan. This tactic is employed to build up winnings and limit losses.

Begin by placing one unit. If you succeed, add one more to the 2 on the game table for a sum of three dollars on the second bet. Should you win you will now have six on the game table, remove four so you have 2 on the 3rd round. Should you come away with a win on the third round, put down 2 on the four on the game table for a sum total of six on the fourth bet.

If you lose on the first wager, you take a loss of one. A profit on the first round followed by a loss on the 2nd causes a loss of two. Success on the initial two with a loss on the third provides you with a profit of 2. And wins on the first three with a hit on the fourth means you experience no loss. Winning at all four wagers gives you with twelve, a profit of ten. This means you can give up the second wager five instances for each successful run of 4 rounds and still are even.
