How to play baccarat

Baccarat is a comparison of two hands, Player and Banker. You are betting on which one finishes closer to 9.

Tens and face cards count 0. Other cards count their face. Only the last digit of the total matters, so 15 is 5. A third card is drawn by fixed rules, not by choice. You do not hit.

Banker wins more often, and the table usually takes 5% commission on a banker win. That leaves a house edge near 1.06%. A tie bet pays more because ties are rarer, and the edge on the tie is much wider. This site has no baccarat demo in the slot library.
