Home \| Sports How to Win When Playing Baccarat at a Casino By: Cajetan Basco, Posted on: 2007-11-19 Ask the regular casino enthusiast what is Baccarat, and the answers will vary from 'some game where you can bet nine' to 'that game that James Bond played in the last movie'. But, Baccarat is one of the original casino games that was very popular not only in the States but also all over the continent. (And yes, it was the game that Ian Fleming focused the action of his first book upon.) Caution: Nevertheless, before you take the plunge, let me just hand over a few words of caution. Please don't succumb to the sweet influence of companies and people that guarantee that they have the secret system that you can buy for just a few dollars and then win hundreds more at a casino. Just ignore all such sales pitches. They are only that. If any one of them really invented or discovered a truly working system, wouldn't they be using it themselves? Unlike other card games such as poker and blackjack, baccarat is less a skill game than any of the rest. In addition, because most baccarat tables use more than three of four decks of cards, the likelihood of being able to calculate the outcome is pretty much non-existent. Here are some basic tactical playing tips: Baccarat is a simple game to learn but still its not that easy to win at it constantly. But, if you internalize some of the following suggestions, your winnings will increase. 1) The Number of decks used is crucial. Because your odds of winning decreases as the number of card decks increases, search out for those baccarat tables that use the least number of decks for that casino. If you look around, you are likely to find a table that uses only one deck of cards at a time. Opt for this table. 2) Remember that the Bank Wins, Usually. Most newcomers to baccarat follow this as if it was one of the ten commandments. This causes many others to stay away from this strategy. But, you shouldn't. If possible, bet with the banker whenever possible. Do this and the odds will work in your favour. 3) Play with an amount you are willing to lose. Though not specific to baccarat, this is one of the major reasons that many people play badly as soon as money comes into the equation. The pressure of losing too much cash causes the most skillful of players to blunder. When you are wagering money that you cannot afford to lose, this pressure will destroy your game. 4) Before joining a table, watch those playing. One of the best methods to win is to select a table where the players are not very good. To do that you must stay back, observe and judge their performances. Another thing to look for is how the role of the banker rotates between the players. Under no circumstance should you join a baccarat game before you have surveyed the table. 5) Learn how to hold yourself back. This is the most important factor to not only bear in mind but to plaster into your brain: come to a casino with money you can waste. And likewise, if you lose that cash, leave. Do not go to an ATM machine for more money or do not use your credit card to withdraw more. Note that once you do that, your reasoning fails resulting in more loss of valuable money. 6) Beware of the pros and the table they play at. Sometimes, after we have won considerable amounts of cash, we tend to over-exaggerate our very own baccarat skills. Then, feeling that we have advanced to a higher level, we look out for and join a high roller baccarat table to play with the pros. It will feel good, but your pockets will empty out so fast that it will not be worth it. Don't join those tables until you are that good. Even then, play with a small amount in the beginning only increasing that sum gradually. Conclusion: Don't let the rumours about baccarat scare you away from playing this exquisite card game. Its easy to learn, and if you participate without playing rashly, you can make a decent amount of money.
