Baccarat Strategy
Baccarat is one of the oldest and most popular games in casinos all over the world. It is especially popular among high-rollers and Asian gamblers. But most people don’t know how to play it. That is pure ignorance. Baccarat is the Casino game with one of the lowest overall house edge (approx. 1%).
Baccarat is essentially a game of chance and there is relatively little the player can do strategically to improve the odds. But you can improve your chances. Just follow these simple tips.
Playing Baccarat you have only a choice of three bets, but it does not mean you don’t have any options at all.
- Betting on the Player Hand - the house edge is 1.29%.
- Betting on the Bank Hand - the house edge is 1.01%.
- Betting on a Tie Hand - the house edge is 15.75%.
The house edge numbers mean that Banker hand wins more often in the long run. Even after paying a 5% commission it is still a slightly better proposition than betting on "Player hand". So, there is only one good bet to make - Bank Hand.
As shown on the Baccarat Odds, you can improve your chances by choosing the right game to play: you should look for the casino that offers the lower number of decks played and lower commission.
The best choice is the 6 deck card game with 4 percent commission on the winning "Banker" hand. And there are single deck baccarat tables in online casinos that are powered by Microgaming software.
And always remember about money management.
Enjoy the game! And good luck!
