Baccarat is a popular card game often played in casinos. The official rules are straightforward. The goal is to bet on which hand, the Player or the Banker, will have a total closest to 9. Cards 2 through 9 are worth their face value. Aces are worth 1 point, and 10s and face cards are worth 0 points. 
If the total of a hand exceeds 9, only the last digit of the total is considered. For example, a hand with a 7 and an 8 totals 15, but its value in Baccarat is 5. The official gameplay involves dealing two cards each to the Player and Banker. A third card may be drawn based on specific rules. The official Baccarat tables are managed by professional dealers. |
