Baccarat: The best strategies

For those who are looking for the best Baccarat strategies, you have come to the right place! Do you also want to improve your Baccarat game and thus increase your chances of winning handsomely? Then you should definitely read on because in this article we will explain to you exactly which strategies to use!

Before we continue, however, it is important to know that we divide our strategies into two different groups. One is game strategies and betting strategies. Both are necessary to be successful at baccarat. So let’s get down to it!

Baccarat game strategies

Know the baccarat game rules

We can’t repeat this tip often enough. It seems logical, yet there are often players who start playing baccarat before knowing all the rules of the game. This then often leads to quick losses and making wrong choices. Therefore, learn the rules of the game before you start playing!

Avoid baccarat games with commissions

Just like poker, blackjack, or roulette, baccarat games come with different commissions. Moreover, there are then different developers, each with their own Baccarat version. Some charge a commission when betting on the banker. Therefore, avoid these games for less money loss!

Play without emotion

Playing without emotion also means not chasing your losses. By playing emotionally and trying to chase your losses, you can quickly make impulsive and wrong choices. This can also cause you to lose money quickly. Therefore, always play without emotions.

Play in shorter sessions

Baccarat is a game that can move very quickly. This can make you win a lot quickly, but also lose a lot quickly. Therefore, keep short playing sessions rather than longer ones to limit your losses.

Choose a trustworthy casino

To make sure you play in a safe gaming environment, it is important to choose a fair and reliable (online) casino. Magic Betting Casino is one such place where you can play baccarat without any worries.

Check your bankroll

Set a budget in advance to manage your bankroll. Decide how much you wish to wager maximum for the entire playing period and stick to it! Therefore, by handling your money responsibly, you ensure a healthy and responsible player mentality.

Practice for free

These days, you can find more than enough free versions of most online casino games online. Make use of them. This way, you will get to know the game better before you start playing for real money.

Baccarat betting strategies

Always bet on the banker

Because the banker’s house edge is slightly less than the player’s, it is better to bet on the banker. This is because the house edge when betting on the banker is 1.06% compared to the player where the house edge is 1.24%.

Avoid betting on a draw

Even though the profit is higher when you win on a draw, we still advise against betting on it. This is because the house edge of a draw bet is 14.4%, which is therefore quite high and reduces your chances of winning.

Use the 1-3-2-4 betting strategy

This strategy is ideal for beginners and helps maximise your profits while limiting your losses. The system works as follows:

  • Bet one unit (1). This could be €10, for example.
    • If you win, go to the next step.
    • At a loss, bet another unit (1).
  • Bet three units (3). In this case €30.
    • At a profit go to the next step.
    • At a loss, go back to step 1.
  • Bet two units (2). In this case €20.
    • At a profit go to the next step.
    • If losing go back to step 1.
  • Bet four units (4). In this case €40.
    • On both profit and loss go back to step 1.

Martingale strategy

We only recommend experienced players, or players with a large bankroll to use this strategy. This is because this strategy is very risky. This is because with every loss, you double your bet in the hope of winning back on your earlier losses. If you have a series of losses in a row, your money can quickly run out.

D’Alembert strategy

Personally, we choose to apply D’Alembert strategy. This strategy is also based on increasing your bet after a loss, but with less risk. Namely, you increase your bet by only 1 unit on a loss, and decrease it by 1 unit on a win.

Par oil strategy

This strategy is the exact opposite of the Martingale strategy. In other words, you double your bet every time you win instead of losing. This way, you can maximise your winnings. Still, it is important to be careful here too, as you can lose money quickly here too.
