Baccarat Chemin de Fer Regulations and Plan

[ English ]

Baccarat Regulations

Baccarat chemin de fer is bet on with 8 decks of cards in a shoe. Cards under 10 are counted at their printed number while at the same time 10, J, Q, K are zero, and A is one. Wagers are made on the ‘banker’, the ‘player’, or on a tie (these aren’t really people; they simply represent the 2 hands that are dealt).

Two hands of 2 cards are then dealt to the ‘bank’ and ‘player’. The score for each hand is the total of the cards, however the first number is dropped. For example, a hand of five and 6 has a value of 1 (5 plus six = 11; dump the 1st ‘one’).

A additional card might be given using the rules below:

- If the player or house has a score of 8 or nine, both players stay.

- If the gambler has less than 5, she takes a card. Players stays otherwise.

- If the gambler holds, the bank takes a card on five or less. If the gambler takes a card, a guide is used to decide if the house stays or hits.

Baccarat Odds

The bigger of the 2 hands wins. Winning bets on the bank payout 19:20 (even payout minus a 5% commission. The Rake is tracked and cleared out when you quit the game so be sure to have funds around just before you depart). Winning bets on the gambler pays out at 1 to 1. Winning bets for tie frequently pays eight to one but on occasion nine to one. (This is a bad wager as ties occur lower than one in every ten rounds. Be wary of putting money on a tie. However odds are substantially better for 9 to 1 versus 8 to 1)

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

Punto Banco Strategy

As with all games Baccarat has quite a few general false impressions. One of which is similar to a misunderstanding in roulette. The past is not a prophecy of future events. Recording previous outcomes on a page of paper is a bad use of paper and a snub to the tree that was cut down for our paper needs.

The most established and definitely the most accomplished scheme is the one-three-two-six method. This technique is deployed to pump up earnings and limit risk.

Start by placing one dollar. If you win, add 1 more to the two on the table for a total of three units on the second bet. Should you succeed you will now have 6 on the game table, subtract 4 so you have 2 on the third wager. Should you come away with a win on the third round, add 2 on the 4 on the game table for a grand total of 6 on the fourth wager.

If you do not win on the first bet, you take a hit of one. A profit on the 1st round followed by a loss on the second creates a loss of two. Wins on the 1st two with a defeat on the 3rd gives you with a profit of two. And wins on the 1st three with a loss on the fourth means you balance the books. Winning at all 4 wagers leaves you with 12, a take of 10. This means you will be able to squander the 2nd wager five times for every successful streak of 4 wagers and still balance the books.
