With the surge in popularity of online gaming, today’s top online casinos have been stocking up their game libraries with famous games. One of the commonly found card games online and in real casinos is baccarat. Avid and even casual players love this game because of its simple mechanics and entertainment value.

For those of you who aren’t familiar with baccarat, the idea of the game is to get as close to a total value of nine based on two cards drawn to both the player and dealer. Aces, tens, and face cards have a value of zero, and cards two to nine are taken at face value. If the value of the first two drawn cards exceed nine, then ten is deducted from the total.

Now that you have the basics, you can try and play the game. If you aim to consistently win, then you’re going to need to practice to get the hang of it and some effective tips that can guide you. Here are some helpful tips to win in online baccarat.

Check out the competition

The standard commission in betting when playing baccarat is 5%, which cannot be negotiated. However, in some cases, it is possible that you’ll find tables online that are willing to take a smaller percentage of wins on dealer bets.

It’s possible to actually find tables that only get a 1% commission from your winnings. It may not be much of a difference, it will help to keep your funds in the positive. Just keep in mind that the commission is the law and this doesn’t mean that you can barter with dealers.

Pay attention to each table

When playing baccarat online, you have to keep an eye on what’s happening at the online casino that you’re playing in. Though most casinos only collect 5% commission on baccarat tables, do not assume that this is the standard for all of them.

Be mindful of the rules and minimums listed on the online casino site of your choice. Should you decide to do the tie bet, pay attention to the payout for this specific bet because some online casinos can be sneaky with the payout for tie bets. Tie bet is a type of bet in baccarat where the payout for players is higher, but the odds of winning are lower.

Make the smart bet

There are three types of bet in baccarat: the banker bet where you’ll only pay 5% commission, the player bet which has essentially the same odds as the banker bet, and the tie bet that was discussed earlier.

Placing your wager on the smart bet is always the safest choice particularly if you’re on a play budget. Statistically, the banker bet is the safer bet to make because it has a lower house edge (1.06%) despite the fractional cut that you take each time you win.

Don’t look for patterns

New players playing online baccarat will often look for a strategy. There are those who claim that in order to win, you need to be on the lookout for patterns. Despite supposed hot or cold streaks, the odds in baccarat are similar with the odds of a coin toss.

Each result is a separate event and no matter how hard you try to determine what the outcome will be, you will not see a sure-fire strategy for winning. Just have fun and avoid stressing yourself out.

Takeaway

If you want to win big in online baccarat you have to pay attention to your surroundings, make smart decisions, and don’t look for a winning method. In addition, you should also know how to go with your gut and stop when you’re in a good place. Remember, you gamble for fun and not to be rich.

PM is the key no more for online selling

Department of Trade Undersecretary Ruth Castelo said Republic Act No. 7581 or the Price Act stipulates that products being sold without a price tag can be an evidence of profiteering.

As online buying and selling thrived amid the quarantine, the Department of Trade and Industry (DTI) reminded online sellers to disclose the prices of their products.

To all online sellers - DTI will be monitoring all your post.

Pinapansin na nila ang online sellers. Malamang nagmumuni-muni na yang mga yan at nag iisip ng paraan pano makakasingil ng tax sa mga nagbenta online.

Dapat lang...imagine sa local store magtatanong ka ng price tapos sasagot sayo ng sales lady, "pm is the key". Lol.

Apart from the Price Act, Republic Act No. 7394 or the Consumer Act states that “it shall be unlawful to offer any consumer product for retail sale to the public without an appropriate price tag, label or marking publicly displayed to indicate the price of each article and said products shall not be sold at a price higher than that stated therein and without discrimination to all buyers.”

Uplifting Yourself Through The Pandemic

I've always preferred to create rather than just appreciate.

It's more rewarding to be a competitive player than an avid spectator, a charismatic leader than a fanatic follower, an innovative chef than a hungry customer, ...well, you get my point.

I'm the kind of person who won't conform to the norm or follow the acceptable standards or get hindered by culture, faith, superstition, nationality, class, etc., which society has elegantly categorized but is actually limiting our every move. This is because I always believe we would never run out of bright ideas, and we always deserve to get the very best.

It is OK to reinvent the wheel if the process will let you discover alternative yet faster or more affordable and convenient ways.

Our brand should either be competitive or a lot better, not by just a press release, ads, commercials, promos, or only during the product launching, but based from personal feedback of our customers.

I know we can't completely satisfy everyone, but that should keep challenging us and become well motivated towards greater excellence, rather than manipulate, deceive, cheat or step on somebody else's foot. This is not survival of the fittest but of the most worthy of our customers' praise.

Every little accomplishment and disappointment should inspire us to continue working on our goals and aspirations. Get up a lot more eager every time you fall hard.

This pandemic has tested each one of us, maybe to our limits, or still hanging in there. Some of us may still be living comfortably, or others could be suffering alone. But one thing is so sure, that we cannot assure our future no matter how we've planned or prepared for the worst. No amount of optimism could prevent us from experiencing sudden and unexpected circumstances. Like a thief in the night, it doesn't announce its arrival by knocking ahead.

Real winners will never see themselves as defeated but only waiting for their time to shine. Life goes on, and we should always embrace it's uncertainties and look forward to its possibilities.
