Baccarat Banque Practices and Scheme
Baccarat Banque Policies
Baccarat banque is played with 8 decks of cards in a dealing shoe. Cards under 10 are valued at their printed number while Ten, Jack, Queen, King are zero, and Ace is one. Wagers are placed on the ‘bank’, the ‘player’, or for a tie (these are not really people; they simply represent the 2 hands to be dealt).
Two cards are dealt to both the ‘house’ and ‘gambler’. The value for each hand is the sum total of the 2 cards, but the beginning number is dumped. e.g., a hand of 5 and 6 has a value of 1 (five plus 6 equals eleven; dump the 1st ‘one’).
A additional card might be given out using the following rules:
- If the gambler or bank gets a total of 8 or nine, the two players stay.
- If the player has five or less, he takes a card. Players stays otherwise.
- If the player stands, the banker hits on a value less than 5. If the player hits, a chart is used to determine if the banker stays or hits.
Punto Banco Odds
The better of the two totals wins. Winning wagers on the banker pay out 19:20 (even money less a 5 percent rake. The Rake is recorded and cleared out once you quit the table so be sure to still have cash around before you head out). Winning bets on the gambler pay one to one. Winning bets for a tie normally pays out at 8:1 but on occasion 9:1. (This is a poor bet as a tie occurs lower than one in every 10 hands. Be wary of gambling on a tie. Although odds are substantially greater for 9:1 versus eight to one)
Gambled on properly baccarat chemin de fer offers pretty good odds, apart from the tie wager of course.
Baccarat Banque Method
As with all games punto banco has quite a few established myths. One of which is similar to a myth in roulette. The past is not a fore-teller of future events. Recording past results on a page of paper is a poor use of paper and an affront to the tree that was cut down for our paper needs.
The most accepted and almost certainly the most accomplished method is the one, three, two, six method. This tactic is deployed to build up winnings and limit losses.
Start by betting 1 dollar. If you win, add another to the two on the table for a grand total of 3 dollars on the second bet. Should you win you will retain six on the table, remove 4 so you are left with two on the 3rd wager. Should you come away with a win on the 3rd round, add two to the four on the game table for a sum total of 6 on the 4th round.
Should you don’t win on the 1st bet, you take a hit of one. A profit on the first bet followed by a hit on the second brings about a loss of two. Wins on the first 2 with a loss on the 3rd provides you with a take of 2. And success on the initial three with a hit on the 4th means you experience no loss. Succeeding at all 4 rounds gives you with 12, a take of 10. This means you can lose the second round 5 times for every favorable run of four rounds and still are even.
