The regular baccarat table often has 3 casino dealers and up to 14 players. Each player can bet on either
the player or the banker, (the dealer usually bets on the banker). Table minimums are usually high.
The deal rotates around the table in accordance with the rules.
If you don't want to deal pass the shoe to the next player. You continue
dealing only as long as the banker keeps winning.
Baccarat is played with eight decks of cards. The suit
of the card is not important, only the value. Each numbered card
up to nine is worth it's face value. Except the Aces which count
as one and Tens and Picture cards which are worth zero. The value of
the cards are combined i.e. 6 and 7 totals 13. The total score
is then based on the right digit of the total thus a 13 total becomes
a score value of three. By this means no score can be above
nine. To start, all players bet either on the player the banker or
a tie.
The dealer puts two cards, face down under the shoe, two more cards are given, face down,
to the person betting the most on the
player. The player then looks at the cards and then gives them back
to the player who is dealing. The player who is dealing turns over
the cards, one of the casino dealers announces the totals.
Depending on the totals a third card may be called.
( A third card might be dealt should the player or the banker have a total
of 8 or 9 and they both stand. This rule overrides all other
rules. If the player's total is 5 or less the player can hit
or stand. However, if the player stands the banker usually hits).
The winner is the player or banker with the greater score.
The dealers pay out winning wagers and collect losing
ones from the dealer's tray. Note : The player who deals has
no financial responsibility in respect of the other players bets, they
are just turning over cards.
Winning bets on the banker pays even money less commission.
Winning bets on the player pays 1 to 1
Winning bets on a tie pays up to 9 to 1
