This is a great game and in land based casinos it usually has its own room because of the high turnover of cash. If you play baccarat you can win a lot of money and its really very easy to play.

You do not get any cards. The dealer [ who is the bank in baccarat] and the “player” are the two hands that are dealt 2 cards each. The dealer plays both hands. All you do is bet on which hand will win. You have three choices on which to bet

The Bank
The Player
or
A Tie

The hand that totals the highest is the winner. The highest a hand can be is 9. If the bank or the players hand totals 9, they automatically win.

Cards are added this way.
Say the banks two cards are…A 10 and a 9. They are added together, which gives them a total of 19. Then the 1 and the 9 are added together and now there total is 10. Once again they are added together the 1 and the 0 equal = 1. So the banks total is 1.

Its very easy as long as you remember the highest hand is 9.

Now if you bet on the bank and they win..you win double your bet…minus 10% to the bank.

If you bet on the player and win…you win double your bet.

If you bet a Tie…[ which happens alot more than you would think!] and you are right, you win 9 times your bet!
so if you are betting 10$ you just won 90$.

Very easy game, but it is usually a high rollers game.

Hope this helps anyone who wanted to know how to play but never asked.
