Rules of Baccarat


Baccarat Standards

Baccarat is played with 8 decks of cards. Cards with less than a value of 10 are counted at their printed value and on the other hand 10, J, Q, K are 0, and A are each given a value of 1. Wagers are placed upon the ‘banker,’ the ‘player’ or for a tie (these aren’t actual persons; they just portray the 2 hands to be dealt).

Two hands of two cards are then given out to the ‘banker’ as well as ‘player’. The value for each hand shall be the sum total of the 2 cards, but the very first digit is dropped. For eg, a hand of seven as well as 5 has a score of two (sevenplus5=12; drop the ‘one’).

A 3rd card might be given depending on the following protocols:

- If the bettor or banker has a tally of eight or 9, each bettors stand.

- If the gambler has five or less, he hits. gamblers stand otherwise.

- If player stands, the banker hits of 5 or lesser. If the gambler hits, a chart shall be used to figure if the banker stands or hits.

Baccarat Odds

The bigger of the 2 scores is the winner. Victorious bets on the banker payout 19 to twenty (even odds less a 5% commission. Commission is kept track of and paid out when you leave the table so ensure you have money still before you leave). Winning bets on the player pay 1 to 1. Winning bets for tie generally pay out eight to 1 and occasionally 9 to 1. (This is a bad gamble as ties will happen lower than 1 every ten hands. be wary of wagering on a tie. Nonetheless odds are especially better – nine to 1 vs. eight to one)

Played correctly, baccarat provides relatively decent odds, aside from the tie wager obviously.

Baccarat Tactics

As with just about all games, Baccarat has some well-known misconceptions. One of which is close to a roulette myth. The past is not an indicator of future results. Staying abreast of old results on a chart is simply a waste of paper and an insult to the tree that gave its life to be used as our stationary.

The most accepted and probably most successful tactic is the 1-three-two-six technique. This tactic is deployed to magnify winnings and lowering risk.

Begin by gambling one unit. If you win, add one more to the two on the table for a total of three on the 2nd bet. If you win you will have six on the table, remove 4 so you have 2 on the third gamble. If you win the third wager, add 2 to the four on the table for a sum of 6 on the fourth gamble.

If you lose on the 1st wager, you take a loss of one. A win on the first bet followed up by loss on the 2nd will create a loss of two. Wins on the 1st 2 with a loss on the third gives you a profit of 2. And wins on the first three with a loss on the 4th mean you break even. Arriving at a win on all four bets leaves you with 12, a profit of 10. This means you can lose the second bet 5 times for every successful streak of 4 bets and still break even.
