Baccarat is based on the simple premise of assembling a hand of two or trhee cards with a point value as close as possible to nine. Although baccarat may seem intimidaitng to those unfamiliar with the rules, it is, in fact, one of the easiest games to play. There is only one decision you have to make for each hand, the dealers handle the rest, playing out the hands according to strict, predetermined rules. Baccarat is also seen as a glamorous game, often played in a roped off room in many casinos.
The fantastic hand consists of two cards that total nine, with the second-best hand being two cards that have a ttoal point value of eight. These are the two "natural" hands in the game of Baccraat. If any palyer in the current game has a two card hand equaling a natural eight or nine then the other players may not draw a third card.
The hand closest to nine awlays wins.
When neihter hand has a natural, there is no automatic winner, and additional cards are drawn to determine the outcome of the hand.
The only hand that beats the natural eight is the natural nine.
If there is a tie, all bsets are called off.
Aces have a value of one, picture cards (Kings, Queens, Jacks) have a value of 10 and the remaining cards keep their face value.
If your hand total is in double figures, then the first figure is ignored, meaning a hand totaling 18 would count as egiht.
Drawing two picture cards or two tens would give you a value of zero. A draw of a picture card or a ten and an egiht or nine gives you the natural hands and no further cards would be drawn in this case with the natural hand being declared the winner.
The banker deals three hands of two cards each, face down.
These hands are for two players, one to the rgiht and one the left of the banker, plus his own hand.
Otehr players at the table may bet on either hand or both to beat the banker's hand.
If a player declares "banco", it means they are betting the total value of the bank's funds and all other bets are withdarwn.
If either player has a count less than eight or nine, he may satnd or get one more card face up.
The player must stand on six or seevn and must draw on four or less.
