Rules of Baccarat

Baccarat Policies

Baccarat is played with 8 decks of cards. Cards which are of a value less than ten are of their printed number while at the same time 10, J, Q, K are 0, and A are each given a value of 1. Wagers are placed on the ‘banker,’ the ‘player’ or for a tie (these aren’t actual persons; they merely represent the two hands to be dealt).

Two hands of 2 cards will now be given to the ‘banker’ as well as ‘player’. The total for each hand will be the grand total of the two cards, but the initial digit is dropped. For e.g., a hand of 7 … 5 has a total score of two (sevenplusfive=12; drop the ‘1′).

A 3rd card might be given out depending on the foll. standards:

- If the gambler or banker has a score of 8 or 9, then both players stand.

- If the bettor has 5 or less, he/she hits. bettors stand otherwise.

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

Baccarat Odds

The higher of the 2 scores is the winner. Winning wagers on the banker pay out 19 to twenty (even odds less a 5% commission. Commission is tracked and cleared out when you leave the table so make sure you have funds left before you leave). Bets on the player that end up winning pay one to one. Winning bets for tie by and large pays eight to one but sometimes nine to one. (This is an awful bet as ties will occur less than 1 every 10 hands. Run away from putting money on a tie. However odds are exceedingly better – 9 to one vs. eight to 1)

Played effectively, baccarat provides fairly decent odds, aside from the tie wager ofcourse.

Baccarat Strategy

As with all games, Baccarat has some established false impressions. 1 of which is quite similar to a roulette misconception. The past is not an indicator of future events. Tracking of prior conclusions on a chart is definitely a total waste of paper as well as an insult to the tree that gave its life for our stationary needs.

The most accepted and possibly most successful technique is the 1-three-2-six concept. This scheme is used to accentuate successes and controlling risk.

Begin by betting 1 unit. If you win, add one more to the 2 on the table for a total of three on the 2nd bet. If you win you will have six on the table, clear away four so you have two on the third bet. If you win the third bet, add two to the 4 on the table for a total of six on the 4th gamble.

If you don’t win on the 1st bet, you take a loss of one. A win on the first bet quickly followed by loss on the 2nd will create a loss of two. Wins on the first 2 with a loss on the third gives you a profit of two. And wins on the first 3 with a loss on the 4th mean you breakeven. Coming out on top on all four bets leaves you with twelve, a profit of ten. In other words you can lose the second bet 5 times for every successful streak of four bets and still break even.
