Objective
Baccarat is a thrilling game played at major casinos all over
the world. The Player's objective is to wager on his prediction
that either the Player's hand will win, the Banker's hand
will win, or that the game will result in a Tie.
Rules Of Play
The object of baccarat is to predict
if the Player or the Banker's hand will get a point value
closest to 9, keeping in mind that all ten-value cards count
as zero and Aces count as one. The hand with the highest point
value wins.
The highest total any baccarat hand can have
is nine. A two-card total of nine is called a "natural" and
cannot lose. An eight is the second-best hand and is also
called a "natural". If both the Player and Banker are dealt
identical hands, it's a standoff (a Tie) and neither the Banker
nor the Player hand wins.
You do not receive any cards, or play against
anyone but to predict which hand will beat the other. Please
note, the Player (you) can bet on the Player, Banker or a
Tie.
The Player and the Banker are each dealt a
two-card hand. Following standard baccarat rules, a third
card is dealt to the Player and/or the Banker.
Hand Values
Ace = one point
Face cards and tens = zero
|
|
| All
other cards carry the point value stated on the card.
If the cards in a hand total more than ten points, simply
subtract ten; the remainder is the baccarat point value
of the hand. For example: 8+8=16, which counts as a 6
in baccarat; and a Jack+7=17, which counts as 7. |
Third Card Rules
The following baccarat rule chart governs
when the Player and/or the Banker will automatically be dealt
(i.e. "draws") a third card in the Baccarat game: If the point
value of the first two cards is 8 or 9, this is called a Natural.
If anyone is dealt a Natural the game ends and no third card
is dealt to anyone.
