Baccarat


Play your cards right and you could be a winner!

In the game of Baccarat the Player is given three choices: to bet on his own hand, to bet on the banker’s hand or to bet on a tie between the two. The odds on betting on either hand are 1:1, even money, meaning that if you bet $5, you get $5 back, plus $5 more. When you bet on a tie, the odds are 8:1, meaning that if you bet $5 you get $40 back.

Each Player is dealt two cards from a shoe of 6 to 8 decks. The object is for those two cards to add up to as close to 9 as possible. The cards 2 through 9 represent their face value, with the Ace counting 1, and with 10 and the face cards worth zero. If your initial two card tally totals over 9, for example 16, then the 1 is dropped leaving the 6 to stand as your score.

If your initial hand totals 8 or 9 it is declared ‘natural’ and wins (unless there is a tie between two naturals). If either hand is natural, the hand will stand and the natural hand is the winner. If neither hand is natural another card is given to each Player, totals are taken again and the winner is then decided.

Winning Tips
There are very few strategies designed specifically for Baccarat, due to the mathematical variability of the game. A basic strategy may work, but this basic strategy allows you to bet low and win high – the ethos of any good gambler. In fact you only need to outlay two coins and you stand to win 10.

This strategy is known as the 1-3-2-6 system, and is a failsafe method of making easy money. It also allows you to pull out at any stage if you feel vulnerable.
  • First, bet one unit. If you win, add another, making the second bet a total of three units.
  • If you win the second bet there are six units on the table. Now remove four of the unit, making the third bet two units.
  • If the third bet wins, add two more units for a total of six units on the fourth bet.
  • If the fourth bet wins, you collect a total of 12 units, ten of pure profit.
Thus if you lose the first bet using this baccarat system, you lose one unit. If you win the first bet but lose the second, you still only lose two units. If you win the second bet but lose the third bet, you actually come out with a profit of two units. If you win the first three bets but lose the fourth, you break even. So as you can see, this method will allow you to rake in large winnings without risking losses.
