Baccarat Strategy

Find a baccarat strategy which suits you with Castle Casino

As discussed in our History of Baccarat and Baccarat Rules sections, this is one game, above all others, that is very hard to strategise. Indeed, most gamblers will tell you that a truly reliable Baccarat strategy is a myth since it is a game of chance and the odds are the odds.

Nevertheless, it is always worth thinking about any game you are playing, since there is always an element of intelligence and choice. It may be fruitless trying to think about how we can maximize our chances of winning. Rather, let’s look at some central points of the game that can help us minimize our chances of losing!

You’ll often see players at casinos using the chart provided to determine patterns in any given game. With Baccarat, this is simply a distraction, a false hope designed to lure people in, with no logical grounding – which is precisely why it is encouraged by the casinos. The fact is, no hand can have an influential bearing on a subsequent hand.

So what can you do? One thing to look out for is the variation on numbers of decks used by casinos. Always opt for single-deck games, as this will maximize returns.

Avoid the ‘Tie’ bet like the plague. It is naturally very enticing, as the potential return is considerably more than with Player and Banker bets, but the house edge on tie bets is never less than 5%, so don’t be lured by it!

In terms of odds, your best bet will be on the Banker. Though this may seem a fairly dull strategy, the most effective gambling strategies usually are. It takes time and discipline to play like this, and many people play Baccarat purely for fun. However, if you’re looking to win money, betting on the Banker time and again has to be the way to go.

Above all else, practice Baccarat before you start betting money. You can have a go in our free practice casino before you commit any cash.

Once you’ve figured out a strategy you’re comfortable with, come back to our real casino and play live Baccarat for a financial stake.
