Punto Banco Rules and Method
Baccarat Codes
Baccarat chemin de fer is played with 8 decks in a shoe. Cards valued less than ten are worth face value while at the same time 10, J, Q, K are zero, and Ace is 1. Bets are placed on the ‘bank’, the ‘player’, or on a tie (these aren’t actual people; they simply represent the 2 hands to be dealt).
Two hands of 2 cards are then dealt to the ‘bank’ and ‘gambler’. The score for each hand is the sum total of the cards, however the first digit is dropped. For instance, a hand of 5 and six has a score of 1 (five plus 6 = eleven; drop the 1st ‘one’).
A additional card will be given out depending on the following rules:
- If the player or banker gets a value of 8 or 9, the two players stand.
- If the gambler has five or lower, he takes a card. Players otherwise stand.
- If the player stands, the house takes a card on a total lower than 5. If the gambler hits, a table is used to figure out if the bank stays or hits.
Baccarat Chemin de Fer Odds
The greater of the 2 scores wins. Winning wagers on the house payout nineteen to Twenty (even money minus a five percent commission. Commission are tracked and cleared out when you leave the game so ensure you still have cash remaining just before you quit). Winning bets on the gambler pays out at 1 to 1. Winning bets for a tie frequently pay 8:1 but on occasion 9:1. (This is a poor bet as ties occur lower than one in every ten rounds. Be wary of putting money on a tie. Although odds are substantially better for 9 to 1 vs. 8 to 1)
Played correctly baccarat chemin de fer offers generally good odds, apart from the tie wager of course.
Baccarat Scheme
As with all games baccarat chemin de fer has a few general misconceptions. One of which is similar to a myth in roulette. The past isn’t a prophecy of events yet to happen. Keeping score of previous results on a sheet of paper is a bad use of paper and a snub to the tree that was cut down for our stationary desires.
The most established and almost certainly the most successful plan is the one-three-two-six technique. This technique is used to pump up profits and limit risk.
Begin by placing 1 unit. If you win, add another to the two on the table for a sum total of three units on the second bet. If you win you will hold 6 on the game table, take away 4 so you keep two on the third bet. If you come away with a win on the third wager, put down 2 on the 4 on the table for a sum total of 6 on the fourth bet.
Should you lose on the first round, you take a hit of 1. A win on the initial wager followed by a hit on the 2nd creates a loss of 2. Success on the initial 2 with a hit on the third gives you with a take of two. And wins on the initial 3 with a loss on the 4th means you break even. Winning at all four wagers gives you with twelve, a gain of ten. This means you are able to squander the 2nd wager 5 instances for every successful run of 4 rounds and in the end, experience no loss.
