Baccarat Chemin de Fer Rules and Method

Punto Banco Regulations

Baccarat is gambled on with 8 decks in a dealing shoe. Cards below 10 are counted at their printed value and with Ten, Jack, Queen, King are zero, and A is 1. Bets are made on the ‘bank’, the ‘player’, or on a tie (these aren’t really people; they simply represent the two hands to be dealt).

Two hands of 2 cards are then given to the ‘house’ and ‘gambler’. The total for each hand is the sum of the 2 cards, but the first number is dumped. For example, a hand of 5 and 6 has a value of 1 (five plus six = 11; dump the initial ‘one’).

A third card might be given out depending on the rules below:

- If the player or house achieves a total of eight or 9, the two players stand.

- If the player has five or less, he takes a card. Players holds otherwise.

- If the gambler stays, the bank takes a card on a value less than five. If the gambler hits, a chart is used to figure out if the house stands or takes a card.

Baccarat Odds

The bigger of the 2 scores wins. Winning wagers on the banker pay out 19:20 (equal cash minus a 5% rake. Commission are kept track of and cleared out once you leave the game so make sure you still have funds left before you quit). Winning wagers on the player pays 1 to 1. Winning wagers for tie frequently pays out at eight to one but on occasion 9:1. (This is a awful wager as ties occur lower than 1 in every ten hands. Avoid wagering on a tie. However odds are astonishingly greater for 9 to 1 vs. 8 to 1)

Bet on correctly baccarat chemin de fer gives fairly decent odds, apart from the tie bet of course.

Baccarat Strategy

As with all games baccarat chemin de fer has a few established false impressions. One of which is close to a misunderstanding in roulette. The past is not an indicator of future outcomes. Keeping track of previous results on a sheet of paper is a waste of paper and a snub to the tree that surrendered its life for our stationary needs.

The most established and likely the most favorable course of action is the one-three-two-six technique. This technique is employed to build up winnings and minimizing losses.

Start by placing 1 unit. If you succeed, add one more to the two on the table for a sum of 3 dollars on the second bet. If you win you will have 6 on the game table, pull off four so you are left with two on the 3rd wager. If you come away with a win on the third wager, add 2 on the 4 on the table for a total of six on the fourth round.

Should you lose on the first wager, you take a hit of one. A win on the initial round followed by a loss on the 2nd creates a loss of two. Wins on the first two with a loss on the third provides you with a profit of two. And success on the first 3 with a defeat on the fourth means you break even. Succeeding at all four wagers leaves you with twelve, a take of 10. This means you can lose the second wager 5 instances for each successful streak of four bets and still balance the books.
