I was watching a show on the Travel Channel and some guy said that when betting on baccarat, if you always bet on the banker/dealer you should come out ahead. Do people agree with this? If so, why?
Thanks.

Bushwa. Bet any way you want…the odds are identical, IIRC.
Yes, always bet on the banker.
The house advantage for the banker is 1.06%, for the player it’s 1.24%, and for ties it’s 14.36%.

I play craps, which has better odds and is one helluva lot more exciting to boot.
But to be clear, it’s not true that
You’ll still come out behind on average, just slightly less far behind.
