"Banking in baccarat is like bank. ing in business, you take a chance and are satisfied with a amall per- centage," M. Battisti explained to- day.
"To be banker in baccarat, you must be prepared to take large losses, but the longer you play the more chance you have of winning.

Like Banking? "Baccarat appesis as a game of chance
to the player because he feels that he has a voice in the mat- ter as he does not have at 80-40 or roulette where an ivory ball that the other fellow spins decides the matter. In baccarat you have to be a mathematician to now when to draw and when not to draw cards.
"When baccarat is played in a French casino, a French govern- ment Inspector is always present, so the game must be considered one of even chances. However, luck must be considered, also coolness and judgment as in bridge.
"It is generally admitted that the banker may have from one to seven and a half per cent. in his favour, if he possesses the necessary sklil and calm, and enough money to tide over temporary heavy losses.
Increased Tax.
"But the government this winter take from two to four per cent. taxes, so this cuts the seven and a half per
cent. perceptibly. Until last year, when a banker held the bank against the table he paid merely a forfeit tax of 3,000 francs for the show of six decks of cards. '. "Now on top of this tax there is a flat two per cent. tax on tho banker's.deposit, which may be up to a million francs. At the begin- ning of each subsequent deal, two per cont. tax is levied again. Play is limited to the dealing of three shows before and three after dia- ner. This materially reduces the
whosa - advantage of the banker greatest hope is that the longer he plays the surer he is of winning."
Before becoming a banker, M. Battisti figured in some of the famous baccarat duels of history. In Biarritz in August 1929, he was at one time 21,000,000 francs behind, but caught up, and in the Gould casino here, last Winter, dropped 7,000,000 francs to a New York woman before midnight and took it all back after midnight United Press.
