Baccarat Banque Codes
Baccarat chemin de fer is wagered on with eight decks of cards in a shoe. Cards under 10 are worth their printed number and with Ten, Jack, Queen, King are zero, and Ace is 1. Bets are made on the ‘banker’, the ‘player’, or for a tie (these aren’t actual people; they just represent the 2 hands to be dealt).
Two hands of two cards are then given to the ‘banker’ and ‘gambler’. The score for every hand is the total of the cards, although the 1st number is dumped. e.g., a hand of five and 6 has a value of one (5 plus 6 equals 11; ditch the 1st ‘one’).
A third card could be dealt using the rules below:
- If the gambler or banker has a value of 8 or nine, both players hold.
- If the gambler has five or lower, he hits. Players otherwise stand.
- If the player holds, the house takes a card on 5 or lower. If the player hits, a chart is employed to decide if the house stands or hits.
Baccarat Odds
The greater of the two hands wins. Winning wagers on the house pay out 19 to 20 (even payout less a five percent commission. Commission are tracked and paid off when you depart the game so be sure to have money left over just before you quit). Winning bets on the gambler pay 1 to 1. Winning bets for a tie normally pay 8:1 but occasionally 9 to 1. (This is a poor bet as a tie occurs lower than 1 in every 10 rounds. Be wary of putting money on a tie. Although odds are substantially greater for 9 to 1 versus eight to one)
Played properly baccarat gives pretty good odds, aside from the tie bet of course.
Baccarat Course of Action
As with all games baccarat banque has quite a few general false impressions. One of which is the same as a absurdity in roulette. The past is not a fore-teller of events yet to happen. Keeping track of previous outcomes on a chart is a bad use of paper and an affront to the tree that was cut down for our paper needs.
The most common and probably the most successful course of action is the 1-3-2-6 technique. This tactic is used to build up winnings and minimizing losses.
Begin by betting one unit. If you win, add one more to the 2 on the game table for a total of 3 dollars on the second bet. If you win you will now have 6 on the table, pull off four so you have 2 on the 3rd bet. If you come away with a win on the third round, put down 2 to the four on the game table for a grand total of 6 on the 4th wager.
If you do not win on the 1st bet, you take a hit of 1. A profit on the 1st wager followed by a loss on the second brings about a hit of two. Wins on the initial 2 with a defeat on the third provides you with a profit of two. And wins on the initial three with a hit on the fourth means you balance the books. Succeeding at all 4 wagers leaves you with twelve, a profit of ten. This means you will be able to give up the 2nd wager 5 times for every successful run of four bets and in the end, balance the books.
