Baccarat is a popular card game in online casinos. The goal is to bet on which hand will have a total closest to 9: the Player\“s hand, the Banker\“s hand, or a Tie.
To start, place your bet on Player, Banker, or Tie. The dealer then deals two cards each to the Player and Banker. Cards 2-9 are worth their face value, Aces are 1, and 10s and face cards are 0. If the total exceeds 9, only the last digit counts (e.g., 15 becomes 5).
A third card may be drawn based on specific rules. If either hand has a total of 8 or 9 (a natural), no more cards are drawn. Otherwise, the Player hand draws a third card if its total is 5 or less. The Banker\“s action depends on the Player\“s third card.
Winning bets on Player pay 1:1, Banker pays 0.95:1 (due to a 5% commission), and Tie usually pays 8:1. Always check the casino\“s rules before playing. |
