Punto Banco Codes

Baccarat chemin de fer is wagered on with eight decks in a dealer’s shoe. Cards valued less than ten are counted at their printed number while at the same time 10, J, Q, K are zero, and A is 1. Wagers are placed on the ‘banker’, the ‘player’, or for a tie (these are not actual people; they just represent the two hands to be dealt).

Two cards are dealt to both the ‘bank’ and ‘gambler’. The total for each hand is the total of the cards, but the 1st number is discarded. e.g., a hand of five and six has a value of 1 (5 plus six = eleven; dump the 1st ‘1′).

A third card could be given depending on the following rules:

- If the gambler or bank achieves a value of eight or 9, the two players hold.

- If the gambler has less than five, she takes a card. Players stands otherwise.

- If the gambler holds, the banker takes a card on a value less than five. If the gambler takes a card, a table is employed to figure out if the bank stands or hits.

Baccarat Banque Odds

The bigger of the 2 hands wins. Winning wagers on the bank pay out 19:20 (equal cash less a five percent rake. The Rake is recorded and cleared out once you quit the table so ensure you have funds left over just before you depart). Winning wagers on the player pays out at 1:1. Winning wagers for tie typically pays out at 8:1 but occasionally 9:1. (This is a bad bet as a tie occurs less than one in every 10 rounds. Be cautious of gambling on a tie. However odds are astonishingly greater for 9 to 1 versus 8 to 1)

Gambled on properly baccarat banque gives relatively decent odds, aside from the tie wager of course.

Punto Banco Course of Action

As with all games Baccarat has some established misconceptions. One of which is similar to a misunderstanding in roulette. The past isn’t a harbinger of events yet to happen. Keeping score of previous results on a page of paper is a poor use of paper and an insult to the tree that surrendered its life for our paper desires.

The most familiar and definitely the most favorable scheme is the one-three-two-six plan. This plan is used to pump up profits and limit risk.

Start by placing one chip. If you succeed, add another to the two on the game table for a total of three units on the second bet. If you win you will have six on the game table, remove four so you have two on the 3rd round. If you succeed on the 3rd bet, add two to the 4 on the game table for a total of 6 on the fourth bet.

Should you do not win on the 1st round, you take a loss of 1. A win on the first bet followed by a loss on the second brings about a hit of 2. Success on the 1st 2 with a hit on the 3rd gives you with a gain of 2. And success on the 1st 3 with a loss on the fourth means you are even. Succeeding at all four wagers gives you with twelve, a take of 10. This means you will be able to not win on the 2nd wager 5 times for each favorable run of four wagers and in the end, break even.
