Baccarat is a game you will surely find interesting and exciting – and if you haven’t played Baccarat before you should give it a chance. The rules are also very easy to follow. Baccarat is a game largely based on both chance as well as a measure of skill. A single deck of 52 cards is used in Baccarat. There are three types of bets which you can choose from and the odds are high making the winnings very lucrative. So get online and explore this cool game where you can make a lot of money…
The aim of Baccarat is to make a prediction as to whose hand (either the Banker’s or your own) is closest to the value of nine (which is called Baccarat). You have the opportunity of betting on the possibility of a tie. Ultimately though, the winning hand is a hand with a value closest to nine.
One must add up the value of all the cards in order to work out the value of a hand. The card values are listed below:

If the hand you bet on wins, you are paid out according to the Baccarat Payout Schedule. Have a look at the table for information on these details.
Hand Combination |
Payout |
Banker's Hand Wins |
2x the bet - 5% commission on winnings for the House |
Player's Hand Wins |
2x the bet |
Tie |
8x the bet |
In the event that the hand you bet on wins, the player is paid double your bet, (an exception to this is if you bet on a tie). If you do bet on a tie, the payout is eight times the amount you bet. In the case that you bet on the Banker's hand, and you do win, the House charges a 5% commission. Also take note of the following:
If you bet on a hand, and the hand loses, you lose your bet. If you do not bet on a tie, and the hands tie, your bet is returned to you. You can vary the chip size you play with. Take note that the minimum value is 10 dollars and the maximum is 1,000 dollars.
Enjoy playing Baccarat, a unique and stimulating game… Good Luck!
