How to Play Baccarat

In Baccarat there are 3 types of bets, a bet that the bank will win, a bet that the player will win and a bet that neight will win and that they will tie. The last bet is a very poor bet as the odds of a tie happening are quite poor.

Each hand starts with the player making a wager on who they think is going to win. When all wagers are placed the dealer will deal two hands, a banker hand and a player hand. Even if there are multiple players only 1 player hand is dealt. Since there are no real decision to make in Baccarat when it comes to your hand, it doesn't matter if the cards are in front of you or not.

Depending on the rules (see our Rules Page), the dealer will either declare a winner at this point if either hand is a natural, or they will deal out more cards. The hand closest to 9 will be declared the winning hand. Loosing bets will be collected and winning bets will be paid out.
