Baccarat Standards
Baccarat is played with 8 decks of cards. Cards that are valued less than ten are give a value of their printed value while ten, J, Q, K are 0, and A are each equal to 1. Bets are placed on the ‘banker,’ the ‘player’ or for a tie (these aren’t actual contenders; they purely represent the two hands to be given out).
2 hands of 2 cards will then be given out to the ‘banker’ … ‘player’. The score for each hand is the sum of the two cards, but the 1st digit is removed. For e.g., a hand of seven and five gives a score of two (sevenplusfive=12; drop the ‘one’).
A third card can be given out depending on the foll. protocols:
- If the bettor or banker has a total of eight or 9, then both players stand.
- If the gambler has 5 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 in order to judge if the banker stands or hits.
Baccarat Odds
The larger of the two scores is the winner. Winning bets on the banker pay at 19 to 20 (even odds less a 5 percent commission. Commission is kept track of and cleared out when you leave the table so ensure you have cash left over before you leave). Bets on the player that end up winning pay one to one. Winning bets for tie customarily pay out eight to 1 and occasionally nine to one. (This is a terrible gamble as ties happen less than 1 every ten hands. be cautious of placing bets on a tie. Nonetheless odds are richly better – nine to one versus 8 to one)
When played accurately, baccarat offers pretty good odds, away from the tie bet obviously.
Baccarat Strategy
As with most games, Baccarat has some established false impressions. 1 of which is close to a roulette myth. The past is not a predictor of future happenings. Tracking of historic results on a chart is a total waste of paper and a slap in the face for the tree that gave its life for our stationary needs.
The most established and possibly most successful method is the one-3-2-six technique. This scheme is used to maximize winnings and controlling risk.
Begin by wagering one unit. If you win, add one more to the 2 on the table for a total of three on the second bet. If you win you will have 6 on the table, remove 4 so you have two on the 3rd bet. If you win the 3rd bet, add 2 to the 4 on the table for a sum of six on the 4th wager.
If you don’t win on the 1st wager, you take a loss of 1. A win on the first bet quickly followed by loss on the second brings about a loss of 2. Wins on the first 2 with a loss on the 3rd gives you a profit of two. And wins on the first three with a loss on the 4th mean you break even. Coming out on top on all four bets leaves you with 12, a profit of ten. Therefore you can lose the second bet 5 times for every successful streak of four bets and still break even.
