baccarat system for the TIE

Ok, I have to see if others have had any success using the martingale system on the TIE bet in baccarat. Since it pays 8-1, you can bet 1 unit 8 times in a row and winning on the 8th hand you win 1 unit. If you lose then on the 9th-18th you bet 2 units and so on. On the 18th hand, you still win 1 unit, but if you win on the 9th hand you win 7 units. going to the next group of 8 and so on until you win.
Betting $5 8 times, then $10 8 times, then $20 8 times then $40 8 times = $600 bank roll
However, each win will win you from $5 to $40 helping to close the gap of losses on a losing streak. I have had two ties in a row, that's a $80 win.
Since a tie occurs about 9% or close to 1 in 11 hands, to lose $600 would be 32 hands in a row without a tie.
I have been practicing and never hit the 32 hands, though I have been in the $40 betting area but never busted starting out with a $600 bank.
If you have plenty of time, you can extend this to watch for no tie for 8 hands, then start betting, and the amount of hands needing to come in without a tie would now be 40. You will reduce the amount of times you win, but will decrease your chances of a losing streak.
I am sure the game has had 40 hands go without a tie. The luck on your part is that you are not betting when that occurs, and I would guess it doesn't occur that often.

I have found that if you bet the "Tie" after either a Banker win or a Player win it will hit 9.5% of the time. My system is free and only requires you to find a table that pays 11 to 1 for the Tie and you will get rich.

If you start betting 10 after 8 losses, then if you lose 7 more before winning, your total losses before your win are 8 x 5 + 7 x 10 = 110, and your win only makes 80, so you are still 30 behind after your win. Even if you bet 15 instead of 10, 15 losses would be 8 x 5 + 7 x 15 = 145, and your win would only be 120. In fact, you would have to bet 41 or more in order to make money even after 15 losses. (If you bet 5 on your first 8 and N on your next 8, then 15 losses = 40 + 7N, and your win = 8N, so 8N > 7N + 40 in order for you to come out ahead.) If you do lose 16 in a row, the next 8 bets have to be more than (8 x (5 + your level 2 bet)), which is a bet of at least 369. (8 bets of 5 followed by 8 bets of 41 followed by 7 bets of 368 is 40 + 328 + 2576 = 2944, and a bet of 368 that wins makes 2944, so you break even.) Should you happen to lose 24 in a row, with bets of 5, 41, and 369, you are now 3320 behind, and need to bet 26,561 per bet in order to make money in the next eight - OOPS, the table maximum is less than that, isn't it?
"I would guess it doesn't occur that often" reminds me of the joke about the girl who was selling $500 glasses of lemonade. When told she wouldn't get many customers at that price, she replied, "True, but it only needs to happen once."

Also every time a new dealer comes in bet the tie.

I usually win when I play baccarat. I wait for the others to make their wagers, then I'd bet the opposite of them. If they freak out and yell -- it's a sure winner (sometimes). If they don't freak out and yell, you still have a decent chance to win, but should pull your bet. You don't want to get greedy.

I notice the baccarat system folks will often post with the clear assumption that everybody knows systems work in baccarat, are really fun, and everybody enjoys comparing theirs. And we get a lot of those threads; popcorn-munchable every time.
Either there is a vast community out there so that naturally we pick a few up, or there are trolls who are competing to see who can pull off sincerity the best and keep everybody going, winning/losing bets in the process maybe.
Seems like it has to be one or the other.

You are correct - I didn't realize it until I started reading your post. DUHH, I knew it was too easy. The funny thing is that I ran the method for a dozen shoes and they ALL were winners, some only $80, others $250+.
So, I recalculated it so that I can have a winner in every Tie hand I could bet up to 40 times and still be under a $500 bet, with a $4000 bank roll. Not sure what the table max bet is on that bet. Has anyone ever seen it go that many times without a tie?
In my dozen shoes, the most I had it go was 34 times. and each shoe had 8-12 ties.
Most of the Ties happened 9 or more hands after the last tie, so if one would wait for 8 hands before betting, you could go 48 hands. obviously a big risk, but if the likelihood of it going 48 times is very rare (cant say non-existent because in theory it is) it could be worth a try.
Go ahead and play it on any simulator and see if you can have it go 40+ times without a TIE. Let me know your findings, keep track of the longest run you encounter.

Question: what is your betting increment strategy that lets you stay under a $500 bet even on your 40th bet, yet makes a profit since the last tie (or since when you started) when you do get a tie?
Also, "Has anyone ever seen it go that many times without a tie?" reminds me of my 100% Sure Fire Guaranteed Can't Miss Never Fails strategy:
1. Determine the number of consecutive results that "never" happens
2. Wait until that result happens that many times minus 1 (e.g. if "there are never 48 hands in a row without a tie," wait until there are 47)
3. Bet against the result
4. Profit!
If you lose that bet, don't blame me; you're the one that claimed that it "never" happens that many times in a row.

Here are my calculations. I don't know what the max bet is, but from below you can see every time a tie happens within the 40 you either win or break even. It can be adjusted so you at least win $1 but I did the least amount of betting to still cover all previous losses. largest bet is 392. It a system that if it never goes past 40, or even 48 if you don't start betting till the first 8 pass, then you cant lose. Yes, in time it will happen, and if it happens to happen when you are betting then that's the way it goes.

Good news: your list seems to be using 7-1 instead of 8-1 (you are subtracting your bet and then applying the 8-1 winnings).
Here is one that achieves the result without losing so much money (click on the box):
However, assuming the probability of a tie happening are 1/11 (9.09%), the probability of 40 hands in a row without a tie is only about 1/45, and you are effectively wagering 1713 + 215 = 1928 on a event that, 50% of the time, pays 8 or less.
There's an idea for a side bet: 40 hands in a row without a tie pays 40-1.

PGD has a bet like this on his EZ Paigow, FWIW. Pays on the dealer's Q-high hand (which is a push). There's an electronic counter on the table that tells you how long it's been. Though I don't think there's a particular number threshold to get paid; just the event.
If the House lost every hand, they wouldn't deal the game.

yes in Sydney many shoes that NO TIE at all for 60 hands and sometime 70s also some shoes only 3 ties in total. I have wagered on many thousands of shoes have boxes of recorded data. table limit is the killer as we all know. One thing I have found to use as a filter { I add that I do not bet on tie as a rule} from wagered games I notice when a banker wins with a SIX in total { we get 1/2 return on wager here which is what drew this to my attention } was that a Tie would occur within the next 8 hands. Also when Tie total is SIX{ both have total six } tie occur within 8 hands . not 100% but what is? So if I have a big bet out and its now 6 or 7 hands from last bank win of 6 in total or a 6 in total tie win { AND NO TIE BETS HAVE OCCURRED YET IN THAT SEQUENCE } I do throw a sum on tie bet has won more often than not at hand 6,7,8, and I can decrease my bet accordingly. About ten years ago I started to mark my card to show 6 banker and six tie win total. So I can say this is fact and not based on biased memorey of some random event that has occurred once or twice over 4 or 5 shoes last time I was on a holiday and went to a casino .

Yes it seems. I have come up with my own progression for the 8:1 payouts. Practicing only it has been quite interesting. The math I wrote will allow you up to 40 bets with a 421 unit total loss. I suppose to could add to the math progression. I've gone 33 bets before resetting. Most bet progressions win under 20 bets. I stayed in the shoe at 33 realizing more ties where coming. Most shoes If I strike 4 or 5 ties under 40 hands then take the profit and run. If 2 ties come back to back early in the shoe I also leave.

If you get to 140 tie losses in a row (probability 1 in 1,201,374), I'll be very interested to see evidence.

There is only one system for beating baccarat, which I will share with you fortunate souls.
1) Be Asian. Not Asian? IWell, you only need one Asian kidney (functional or not) to qualify. I know a guy who can help you out.
2) Castrate a rhinoceros. Consume one testicle, raw. Place the other testicle on your ancestral altar, so that your forefathers can bring you luck from the afterworld.
3. LV=Lucky Variance, Never enter a casino without at least 1 Louis Vuitton item.
4. Consult an astrologist on what side to bet. Do what he says.
5. Make a donation to the monks at the local pagoda.
6. Profit tenfold.
It really is that easy.

Hi, it’s been 7 years since your post. Just wondering how you’re going with your Tie bet calculation?

Quote: jjcroccoOk, I have to see if others have had any success using the martingale system on the TIE bet in baccarat. Since it pays 8-1, you can bet 1 unit 8 times in a row and winning on the 8th hand you win 1 unit. If you lose then on the 9th-18th you bet 2 units and so on. On the 18th hand, you still win 1 unit, but if you win on the 9th hand you win 7 units. going to the next group of 8 and so on until you win.
Betting $5 8 times, then $10 8 times, then $20 8 times then $40 8 times = $600 bank roll
However, each win will win you from $5 to $40 helping to close the gap of losses on a losing streak. I have had two ties in a row, that's a $80 win.
Since a tie occurs about 9% or close to 1 in 11 hands, to lose $600 would be 32 hands in a row without a tie.
I have been practicing and never hit the 32 hands, though I have been in the $40 betting area but never busted starting out with a $600 bank.
If you have plenty of time, you can extend this to watch for no tie for 8 hands, then start betting, and the amount of hands needing to come in without a tie would now be 40. You will reduce the amount of times you win, but will decrease your chances of a losing streak.
I am sure the game has had 40 hands go without a tie. The luck on your part is that you are not betting when that occurs, and I would guess it doesn't occur that often.

Your approach to the Martingale system on the Tie bet in baccarat is interesting. The 8-1 payout appears to be put to proper use as it is used to recover losses in this progressive betting strategy. One should also keep in mind time and table limits. This makes your experience and careful way of examining baccarat strategies interesting to learn. Best of luck!
