In baccarat, this type of bet is called Banco and, based on mathematical calculations, we can conclude that it is the most profitable for the player. The advantage of a gambling establishment in baccarat, if you bet on a player, does not exceed 1.25%, but if you bet on a banker – in this case, the advantage of the casino is reduced to 1.05%.

Yes, of course, it is absolutely impossible to refuse bets on the player, because the game will be boring and uninteresting. But in the long run, you need to bet more on the banker. Draw bets are not for you, as the casino has a 15% advantage here.

Which Game To Give Preference To?

Often, in gambling establishments, customers are given a choice of exactly how many decks to play with. According to the available data, the fewer decks are used in a game, the less advantage the casino has. So, when playing baccarat with 8 decks, when betting on the banker, you have a chance of winning 45.86%, when betting on a player – 44.62%, and when betting on a draw – 9.52%.

When playing with six decks, the numbers change in this direction. So, betting on the banker, the chances of winning are 45.87, betting on the player – 44.53%, on the draw – 9.51. It may seem that these numbers are unimportant, but playing with 6 decks will be a much more profitable option over the long term. Thus, the mathematical advantage of a gambling house in a game with 8 decks reaches 1.06%, and when playing with six decks – 1.05.

Choose The Right Casino

As in many other games, in baccarat the gambling establishment withholds a commission from the amount of the winnings. Its standard size is 5%, therefore, betting on the banker and knowing about the commission, the player agrees to the casino advantage of 1.05%. In some cases, the commission does not exceed 4%, and this reduces the advantage to 0.6%. The lower the commission, the more profitable it will be for you.

Control Your Finances

Do not use Martingale, do not abuse the game, count your money, and if there is an opportunity to get a minimal advantage over the casino or reduce its advantage, be sure to use it. Determine the limits of winning and losing, do not leave them a single step. Thus, you will avoid many annoying losses and leave the gambling establishment in the black!
