Baccarat Protocols
Baccarat is played with 8 decks of cards in a shoe. Cards that are valued less than 10 are give a value of their printed value while at the same time 10, J, Q, K are 0, and A are each equal to 1. Wagers are placed on the ‘banker,’ the ‘player’ or for a tie (these aren’t actual persons; they purely appear as the 2 hands to be dealt).
2 hands of 2 cards are then dealt to the ‘banker’ and ‘player’. The score for each hand shall be the sum of the two cards, but the very first digit is dumped. For example, a hand of 7 and five gives a total score of two (sevenplusfive=12; drop the ‘one’).
A 3rd card could be dealt depending on the foll. guidelines:
- If the player or banker has a score of 8 or 9, each gamblers stand.
- If the bettor has five or lower, he hits. bettors stand otherwise.
- If bettor stands, the banker hits of 5 or less. If the bettor hits, a chart will be used to determine if the banker stands or hits.
Baccarat Odds
The greater of the 2 scores wins. Victorious stakes on the banker pay 19 to 20 (even money minus a five percent commission. Commission is followed closely and cleared out when you leave the table so make sure you have $$$$$ left over before you leave). Winning bets on the player pay 1 to 1. Winner bets for tie normally pay out eight to 1 but on occasion 9 to one. (This is a bad wager as ties will happen less than one every ten hands. be cautious of betting on a tie. Nevertheless odds are certainly better – nine to one versus eight to 1)
When played properly, baccarat presents generally good odds, apart from the tie bet ofcourse.
Baccarat Strategy
As with just about all games, Baccarat has some established misconceptions. 1 of which is quite similar to a roulette misconception. The past is surely not a predictor of future events. Keeping track of prior results on a chart is undoubtedly a total waste of paper and a slap in the face for the tree that gave its life to be used as our stationary.
The most commonly used and probably most successful technique is the one-3-two-six concept. This method is deployed to pump up successes and limiting risk.
commence by wagering one unit. If you win, add one more to the two on the table for a total of three on the second bet. If you win you will have 6 on the table, subtract 4 so you have two on the 3rd gamble. If you win the 3rd wager, add 2 to the four on the table for a sum total of 6 on the 4th wager.
If you lose on the 1st wager, you suck up a loss of 1. A win on the 1st bet followed up by loss on the 2nd creates a loss of 2. Wins on the first 2 with a loss on the third gives you a profit of 2. And wins on the first 3 with a loss on the 4th mean you break even. Winning all four bets leaves you with twelve, a profit of 10. Therefore that you can lose the 2nd bet 5 times for every successful streak of four bets and still break even.
