Introduction
Although many people do not know
how to play, Baccarat is actually one of the easiest
casino games to play. It has been played in various
forms since the early 1800’s. This Internet
Casino offers the most popular version of baccarat,
as found in most casinos in Las Vegas.
In Baccarat, cards are dealt to two hands, named Player
and Banker. The object of the game is to correctly
pick which hand will have the higher score. You
can also place a bet on Tie, which pays 9 to 1.
Game
Play
To play Baccarat
you simply choose whether you want to bet on Player,
Banker, Tie, or any combination of the three.
To place a bet, click on the area in which you wish
to bet, either Player, Banker, or Tie. Then click
the chips in the lower left corner to add them to the
betting area. If you want to remove chips from
the betting area, click them.
When you are finished placing your bet(s), click deal.
After the hands are dealt, if you correctly bet on the
outcome, you win.
If you bet on Player and win, you win even money. A
$5 wager pays back your $5, plus an additional $5.
If you bet on Banker and win, you win even money minus
a 5% commission. A $5 wager pays back your $5,
plus an additional $4.75.
If you bet on Tie and win, you win 9 times your wager.
A $5 wager pays back your $5, plus an additional $45.
The
Deal
At the start of the
game, the Player and Banker hands are each dealt two
cards.
If the score of either hand totals 8 or 9, the game
is over and no further cards are dealt to either hand.
If neither hand scored 8 or 9, the game proceeds as
follows:
The Player goes first and must play according to the
following rules:
The Player hand draws another card if its total is 0-5,
otherwise it does not draw another card. Play
now proceeds to the banker.
If the Banker hand totals 7, 8 or 9, the Banker does
not get another card.
If the Banker’s first two cards total 0,1 or 2,
then the Banker draws one card, otherwise, the Banker
draws cards according to this table:

Card
Values
The suits of the
cards have no meaning in the game.
- Cards 2 through 9 count as face value.
- 10, Jack, Queen, and King count as 0.
- Ace counts as 1.
To calculate the score for the hand, add the values
of each card and drop the ten’s digit.
For example:
- A hand with a seven of hearts and a seven
of spades scores as follows:
7 + 7 = 14 –
the ten’s digit = 4
- A hand with 3 sevens has a score of 1:
7 + 7 + 7 = 21
– the ten’s digit = 1
