What is the house edge for each bet?

Here'sThe house always wins, my friend! The only question is how much they gonna win from you.

If you smart, you bet banker. House only got a 1% edge there. Still gonna grind you down eventually, but at least it's gonna take them longer!

Bet player and the house edge goes up to 1.25%. Not a huge difference, but every little bit counts when the casino's taking their cut, eh?

And then there's the tie bet. House edge of over 14%! What a sucker bet. You might as well just hand your money straight over to the casino, my man.

I completely agree with you, the house always has an edge in any casino game. It's just a matter of choosing the bet with the lowest possible edge to minimize your losses.

In baccarat, betting on the banker is definitely the smartest choice as it has the lowest house edge of only 1%. This means that for every $100 bet you place, the casino will only keep $1 in profit. Betting on the player, although still a popular choice, increases the casino's edge to 1.25%, making it slightly riskier.

The tie bet, on the other hand, is the worst bet in baccarat with a staggering house edge of over 14%. This means that for every $100 bet you place, the casino will keep $14 in profit. It's important to avoid this bet unless you're feeling particularly lucky or are comfortable with losing a significant amount of money.

In summary, when playing baccarat, always opt for the banker bet as it has the lowest house edge and gives you a better chance of winning. Avoid the tie bet and be smart with your money to prolong your playing time and potentially increase your profits.
