Punto Banco Regulations

Baccarat chemin de fer is bet on with 8 decks in a dealer’s shoe. Cards under ten are worth their printed value and with Ten, Jack, Queen, King are zero, and A is one. Wagers are made on the ‘bank’, the ‘player’, or for a tie (these aren’t really people; they just represent the two hands to be dealt).

Two cards are given to both the ‘banker’ and ‘gambler’. The score for each hand is the total of the cards, however the first number is discarded. For example, a hand of five and six has a value of one (five plus six = 11; dump the first ‘one’).

A additional card might be given out based on the following rules:

- If the gambler or banker gets a value of 8 or 9, both players stand.

- If the gambler has 5 or lower, he takes a card. Players otherwise stay.

- If the gambler holds, the bank hits on a total lower than 5. If the gambler hits, a chart is employed to decide if the banker holds or takes a card.

Baccarat Chemin de Fer Odds

The larger of the two totals wins. Winning wagers on the banker pay out 19 to 20 (equal cash minus a 5% rake. The Rake is recorded and cleared out when you quit the game so be sure to have money left over before you depart). Winning wagers on the player pays out at one to one. Winning wagers for tie typically pay eight to one but sometimes 9:1. (This is a awful wager as ties happen less than 1 in every ten rounds. Be cautious of gambling on a tie. Although odds are substantially better for nine to one versus 8 to 1)

Bet on correctly baccarat banque gives generally decent odds, apart from the tie bet of course.

Baccarat Chemin de Fer Strategy

As with all games baccarat banque has a handful of accepted misconceptions. One of which is similar to a absurdity in roulette. The past isn’t a fore-teller of events about to happen. Recording previous outcomes on a chart is a bad use of paper and a snub to the tree that gave its life for our stationary needs.

The most established and almost certainly the most successful strategy is the one-three-two-six technique. This method is employed to build up earnings and limit losses.

Begin by placing 1 chip. If you win, add 1 more to the 2 on the game table for a total of 3 dollars on the second bet. If you win you will now have six on the table, take away 4 so you are left with two on the third bet. If you succeed on the 3rd bet, add 2 on the 4 on the game table for a sum total of 6 on the fourth wager.

Should you lose on the first round, you take a loss of 1. A profit on the 1st bet followed by a hit on the 2nd creates a loss of two. Wins on the first two with a defeat on the 3rd provides you with a profit of two. And wins on the initial 3 with a hit on the 4th means you experience no loss. Winning all 4 bets leaves you with twelve, a profit of 10. This means you are able to squander the second round 5 times for each successful run of 4 rounds and still break even.
