Despite TIE and PAIR bets being very poor choices of bets to make when playing baccarat, punters seem to love it!
I posted a progression for playing TIE previously and I have since received several requests for a progression that combines both TIE and PAIRS (Banker + Player Pairs). TIE pays 8:1 and PAIRS pay 11:1 and some players simply focus on playing these 3 bets throughout a shoe and often to their own detriment.
No doubt it feels great to win when these bets win and I have seen instances whereby all 3 bets win in a single hand. I have on rare occasions experienced this personally even though I very rarely play these bets.
The progression table is designed based on units so you’ll need to convert the units to the currency you are playing with.
The progression shown below offers 20 steps but the actual steps available to you will depend on the table limits where you play so please check so that you know how many steps you have and the respective bankroll required.
The progression is also designed to deliver a minimum of +1 unit net win (all prior losses are recouped) on either TIE or either a BANKER PAIR or PLAYER PAIR bet winning. Anytime a win is captured, reset and start over at BET#1.
The table also shows columns for a combination of wins of TIE with one or both pairs. Yeah, it sure looks really nice to win all 3 bets in a single hand but trust me, they are very rare, so don’t get your hopes high playing these 3 bets.
I stress again: these 3 bets are NOT recommended as the house edge is rather high compared to the normal BANKER or PLAYER bets. Learn some real powerful strategies here.

Announcing the immediate availability of the latest publication: ‘Baccarat Dynamic Lines of Symmetry’.
What is Baccarat about if it is not about ‘patterns’? Players are forever scrutinizing LED screens and their cards to see if they can extract useful information from the data to help them with the next bet selection.
The usual primitive approach is to look at how many times BANKER or PLAYER have come up consecutively, or how many times they have zig-zagged and then make a decision as to whether the current trend will follow suit.
In ‘Baccarat Dynamic Lines of Symmetry‘ I have gone deep and leveraged ‘Dynamic-D1’ values to identify simple but extremely powerful lines of symmetry that offer far more insight than just counting how many BANKERS or PLAYERS have repeated or skipped thus far.
This new and unique approach has become my go-to approach whenever I play baccarat and it has allowed me to easily secure an average of 5 units per session or 50 units a day – playing 10 sessions. A ‘session’ is NOT playing a complete shoe – some sessions are over within the first 15 – 20 hands dealt!
I highly recommend all baccarat players get a grasp of this approach which is highly effective.
