Punto Banco Codes
Punto banco is gambled on with eight decks of cards in a dealer’s shoe. Cards under 10 are counted at face value while at the same time Ten, Jack, Queen, King are zero, and Ace is 1. Bets are made on the ‘banker’, the ‘player’, or on a tie (these are not really people; they simply represent the two hands that are dealt).
Two cards are dealt to both the ‘bank’ and ‘gambler’. The score for each hand is the sum total of the cards, but the 1st digit is ignored. e.g., a hand of 5 and six has a score of one (5 plus 6 = eleven; ignore the first ‘1′).
A additional card may be given out based on the rules below:
- If the gambler or house has a score of eight or nine, the two players hold.
- If the player has five or less, he takes a card. Players stands otherwise.
- If the gambler stays, the bank takes a card on 5 or lower. If the player hits, a table is employed to see if the banker holds or hits.
Baccarat Chemin de Fer Odds
The larger of the two hands wins. Winning bets on the bank pay out 19:20 (even money minus a 5 percent commission. Commission are kept track of and paid off once you depart the table so make sure you have cash left over just before you depart). Winning bets on the gambler pay 1 to 1. Winning bets for a tie usually pays out at 8:1 but on occasion nine to one. (This is a awful wager as a tie occurs less than 1 in every ten hands. Be wary of putting money on a tie. However odds are substantially better for nine to one vs. eight to one)
Played properly punto banco offers fairly decent odds, apart from the tie wager of course.
Baccarat Banque Strategy
As with all games Baccarat has a few familiar false impressions. One of which is close to a absurdity in roulette. The past isn’t a fore-teller of events yet to happen. Tracking past outcomes on a chart is a poor use of paper and a snub to the tree that surrendered its life for our stationary needs.
The most accepted and almost certainly the most accomplished plan is the 1-3-2-6 method. This technique is used to build up profits and minimizing risk.
Begin by placing 1 chip. If you win, add another to the two on the table for a sum of 3 units on the second bet. Should you win you will now have six on the table, remove four so you have 2 on the third wager. If you succeed on the 3rd bet, put down 2 on the 4 on the table for a total of six on the 4th wager.
Should you do not win on the first bet, you take a loss of 1. A win on the first round followed by a loss on the 2nd brings about a loss of two. Success on the first two with a hit on the third gives you with a gain of two. And success on the 1st three with a hit on the 4th means you experience no loss. Succeeding at all 4 rounds leaves you with 12, a take of ten. This means you will be able to give up the 2nd round five times for each favorable run of four wagers and in the end, break even.
