Game Type: Baccarat

Description:
A simple but engaging game, Baccarat is a popular choice for many players. Skill and luck combine in Baccarat to create incredible odds and tremendous payouts.

Rules:
The objective of Baccarat is to predict which of the two hands dealt (Banker or Player) will be closer to a value of 9.

In Baccarat the player competes against the banker. Wagers are placed in the areas marked Tie, Banker and Player on the table. Cards are dealt from a deck of cards called a shoe. Traditionally, the shoe contains anywhere from six to eight standard 52-card decks without jokers.

Two hands of cards are dealt, one for the Player and one for the Banker.
Each hand initially contains two cards.

The value of the cards is as follows:
10, J, Q, K = 0
Ace = 1
Numbered cards retain their face value.

Decide how much you want to wager and what bet you want to play and then place your wager(s) on the table.

The banker deals two cards to the player and two cards to the banker and then turns the cards face up.

If the initial value of the cards in either the Player's Hand or the Banker's Hand is an 8 or a 9, (called a NATURAL), no more cards shall be dealt to either hand.

If the value of the cards in the Banker's hand on the first two cards is 0 to 7 inclusive, the Player's hand shall draw in accordance with the third card rules.

When the Player's hand is completed, the Banker's hand is played out.
Once the Banker's hand is complete, the Player's hand is compared to the Banker's hand and win(s), loss(es) or tie(s) are determined.

When the Player and Banker hands equal the same total, the hand is declared a Tie.

Tips:
Baccarat is a game of luck so play and enjoy. The house edge is naturally low so your chances are good. Your best strategy is to avoid tie bets because the chances of winning that way are low.
