Punto Banco Policies
Baccarat is enjoyed with 8 decks in a shoe. Cards valued less than 10 are worth their printed number while Ten, Jack, Queen, King are zero, and Ace is 1. Bets are made on the ‘banker’, the ‘player’, or for a tie (these aren’t really people; they just represent the 2 hands to be dealt).
Two hands of 2 cards are then dealt to the ‘banker’ and ‘gambler’. The value for each hand is the sum of the cards, although the first digit is dropped. e.g., a hand of 5 and six has a total of 1 (five plus six = eleven; dump the initial ‘one’).
A third card might be dealt based on the rules below:
- If the gambler or banker has a score of 8 or 9, the two players hold.
- If the gambler has five or lower, she takes a card. Players otherwise stand.
- If the gambler holds, the house hits on a total less than 5. If the player takes a card, a chart is employed to figure out if the house stays or hits.

The higher of the two totals wins. Winning bets on the house payout 19 to 20 (equal money minus a five percent rake. Commission are tracked and cleared out once you quit the game so be sure to still have money remaining just before you head out). Winning wagers on the player pay 1 to 1. Winning wagers for a tie usually pays 8 to 1 but on occasion 9 to 1. (This is a poor bet as ties occur less than one in every 10 hands. Be cautious of gambling on a tie. However odds are astonishingly greater for 9 to 1 vs. 8:1)
Played correctly baccarat offers generally decent odds, apart from the tie wager of course.
Baccarat Banque Method
As with all games baccarat banque has some general false impressions. One of which is similar to a misconception in roulette. The past is not a prophecy of future outcomes. Keeping score of previous results at a table is a bad use of paper and an insult to the tree that gave its life for our paper needs.
The most common and possibly the most successful plan is the one-three-two-six method. This method is employed to build up winnings and minimizing risk.
Begin by wagering one dollar. If you succeed, add one more to the two on the game table for a sum total of three dollars on the second bet. Should you succeed you will hold 6 on the table, take away 4 so you have two on the third wager. If you succeed on the 3rd wager, deposit two to the four on the table for a total of 6 on the 4th round.
Should you don’t win on the 1st wager, you take a hit of one. A win on the 1st bet followed by a hit on the 2nd brings about a hit of 2. Success on the first two with a loss on the third gives you with a profit of two. And wins on the initial 3 with a defeat on the 4th means you are even. Succeeding at all four bets leaves you with 12, a gain of 10. This means you will be able to lose the 2nd bet 5 instances for each successful run of 4 bets and still experience no loss.
