Baccarat Regulations

Baccarat is gambled on with 8 decks in a dealing shoe. Cards below 10 are valued at face value while 10, J, Q, K are zero, and A is one. Wagers are made on the ‘bank’, the ‘player’, or for a tie (these aren’t really people; they simply represent the two hands to be dealt).

Two cards are dealt to both the ‘bank’ and ‘gambler’. The score for each hand is the total of the two cards, but the 1st digit is discarded. For instance, a hand of 5 and six has a value of one (5 plus 6 equals eleven; ditch the 1st ‘1′).

A third card will be given based on the following rules:

- If the player or banker has a value of eight or 9, the two players stay.

- If the gambler has less than five, he hits. Players otherwise hold.

- If the gambler stands, the bank hits on a value less than five. If the gambler hits, a table is used to determine if the bank holds or hits.

The bigger of the two scores wins. Winning bets on the bank pay out nineteen to Twenty (even payout less a five percent commission. Commission are recorded and paid off once you quit the game so ensure you still have money around just before you leave). Winning bets on the gambler pays 1:1. Winning bets for tie typically pay 8 to 1 but on occasion nine to one. (This is a poor wager as ties occur less than one in every ten hands. Avoid wagering on a tie. However odds are astonishingly better for nine to one vs. eight to one)

Wagered on correctly punto banco provides fairly decent odds, apart from the tie wager of course.

Baccarat Banque Course of Action

As with all games punto banco has a few general myths. One of which is similar to a myth in roulette. The past is not a harbinger of events about to happen. Recording past results at a table is a bad use of paper and an insult to the tree that gave its life for our paper needs.

The most familiar and likely the most favorable method is the one-three-two-six tactic. This technique is employed to build up earnings and limit risk.

Start by placing 1 dollar. If you win, add one more to the 2 on the game table for a total of three units on the second bet. Should you win you will retain 6 on the game table, remove four so you keep two on the 3rd bet. If you come away with a win on the third wager, deposit two on the 4 on the table for a sum total of six on the fourth wager.

If you don’t win on the initial round, you take a hit of 1. A win on the initial wager followed by a loss on the second brings about a loss of 2. Success on the initial two with a defeat on the third gives you with a profit of two. And success on the 1st 3 with a defeat on the fourth means you balance the books. Winning at all four wagers leaves you with twelve, a take of ten. This means you can squander the second round five times for every successful streak of four rounds and in the end, experience no loss.
