- Billy and Joe are buddies that think they can outsmart the casino by splitting each other’s profits. They decided to play a game by the name of Baccarat. They both have $1200 and their goal is to leave once they double their money. In Baccarat, the Banker's or Player’s hand will win 45% of the time. Ties win 10% of the time. The goal in baccarat is to have the hand you’re betting on, either the player or the banker, be the best hand of the two dealt. The winning hand is the one with a score where the final digit is the closest to nine. Face cards are worth zero, and aces count as one. There are 8 decks in a shoe. Billy and Joe came up with a betting strategy/sequence and assigned “teams”. Billy will ALWAYS bet on “Player” whereas Joe will always bet on “Banker”.
