Baccarat Banque Rules
Baccarat banque is enjoyed with eight decks of cards in a dealer’s shoe. Cards under 10 are valued at their printed number and with Ten, Jack, Queen, King are zero, and Ace is one. Wagers are made on the ‘bank’, the ‘player’, or for a tie (these are not really people; they just represent the 2 hands that are dealt).
Two cards are given to both the ‘bank’ and ‘player’. The total for each hand is the sum of the cards, but the first digit is dropped. For example, a hand of 5 and 6 has a total of 1 (five plus six = eleven; drop the first ‘1′).
A additional card can be dealt based on the rules below:
- If the gambler or banker achieves a value of eight or 9, the two players stand.
- If the player has less than five, she hits. Players otherwise stay.
- If the player stays, the bank hits on 5 or lower. If the player takes a card, a chart is used to decide if the bank holds or hits.
Baccarat Chemin de Fer Odds
The higher of the two scores wins. Winning bets on the banker payout 19:20 (equal money minus a 5 percent rake. The Rake is tracked and paid off when you leave the table so be sure to have money remaining just before you leave). Winning bets on the player pays one to one. Winning bets for a tie normally pay 8 to 1 but on occasion 9 to 1. (This is a poor wager as a tie occurs less than 1 in every ten rounds. Avoid wagering on a tie. However odds are astonishingly better for 9:1 vs. 8 to 1)
Bet on properly baccarat gives relatively decent odds, aside from the tie wager of course.
Baccarat Chemin de Fer Method
As with all games punto banco has a few familiar misunderstandings. One of which is similar to a absurdity in roulette. The past isn’t a prophecy of events yet to happen. Keeping score of past results at a table is a poor use of paper and an affront to the tree that gave its life for our stationary desires.
The most established and possibly the most successful course of action is the one, three, two, six technique. This technique is deployed to pump up winnings and minimizing losses.
Start by wagering one chip. If you succeed, add one more to the two on the game table for a total of three chips on the second bet. Should you win you will have six on the game table, take away four so you are left with 2 on the 3rd wager. If you win the 3rd wager, add two to the four on the game table for a sum total of six on the fourth round.
Should you don’t win on the 1st bet, you take a loss of one. A win on the 1st bet followed by a hit on the second causes a loss of 2. Success on the 1st two with a hit on the 3rd provides you with a gain of two. And success on the first three with a loss on the 4th means you experience no loss. Winning all four bets leaves you with 12, a gain of ten. This means you are able to lose the second wager 5 times for every favorable run of 4 bets and still balance the books.
