Baccarat Chemin de Fer Codes
Punto banco is played with 8 decks in a shoe. Cards under ten are worth face value while 10, J, Q, K are zero, and Ace is 1. Bets are placed on the ‘banker’, the ‘player’, or for a tie (these are not really people; they just represent the two hands to be dealt).
Two cards are given to both the ‘bank’ and ‘gambler’. The value for each hand is the sum of the 2 cards, however the 1st number is dropped. e.g., a hand of 5 and six has a score of one (5 plus six = eleven; ignore the initial ‘1′).
A third card may be given out depending on the rules below:
- If the gambler or house gets a total of 8 or nine, the two players stand.
- If the gambler has five or less, she hits. Players otherwise hold.
- If the gambler stands, the house hits on a total lower than five. If the gambler hits, a guide is employed to determine if the banker holds or hits.
Baccarat Chemin de Fer Odds
The better of the 2 totals wins. Winning bets on the banker pay out 19 to 20 (equal money minus a 5 percent rake. The Rake is kept track of and cleared out once you quit the game so make sure you still have cash left over just before you leave). Winning wagers on the gambler pay 1 to 1. Winning bets for tie usually pays eight to one but sometimes 9:1. (This is a bad wager as ties occur less than one in every ten hands. Avoid gambling on a tie. Although odds are substantially better for nine to one vs. 8 to 1)
Bet on properly punto banco provides pretty decent odds, aside from the tie bet of course.
Baccarat Scheme
As with all games Baccarat has some general myths. One of which is the same as a myth in roulette. The past isn’t an indicator of events yet to happen. Recording past outcomes on a chart is a waste of paper and an insult to the tree that was cut down for our stationary desires.
The most familiar and definitely the most favorable scheme is the 1-3-2-6 plan. This tactic is deployed to maximize earnings and limit risk.
Begin by wagering 1 dollar. If you win, add another to the two on the table for a grand total of 3 dollars on the second bet. Should you win you will now have six on the table, subtract 4 so you have two on the third wager. Should you succeed on the 3rd wager, deposit two on the four on the game table for a grand total of 6 on the 4th bet.
Should you don’t win on the initial bet, you take a loss of one. A win on the initial bet followed by a hit on the second causes a hit of 2. Success on the 1st two with a defeat on the 3rd gives you with a gain of two. And success on the first 3 with a hit on the fourth means you balance the books. Succeeding at all four rounds leaves you with twelve, a profit of ten. This means you can lose the 2nd bet five times for each successful run of 4 rounds and in the end, are even.
