Baccarat Rules
| |
| TO PLAY | |
| A player will place a wager
on which of two hands (the "Player" or the "Banker") will have a total
point closest to 9. Each hand will receive at least two cards but no more
than three. Baccarat is played with eight decks of cards. The first and
third cards dealt from the shoe constitute the "Player's" hand, and the
second and forth cards constitute the "Banker's" hand. | |
| Face cards and tens count as
0; Aces count as 1, and all other cards count as face value. If required,
a third card is dealt to each hand according to specific rules outlined in
the chart below. | |
| The hand with the highest
point total closest to nine wins. | |
| Winning bets are paid even
money. However, a winning "Banker" bet pays a 5% commission which is
withheld from winnings after each such bet. | |
| If both hands result in
identical totals, the "Tie" bet wins, paying 8 to 1. When a "Tie" occurs,
all bets on the "Player" and the "Banker" are neither paid nor taken.
