How to Play Baccarat - Online Casino Game

The aim of Baccarat is to bet on the outcome of a game between the player and the banker - the hand that totals closest to 9 will win.

You will have the option to bet on the player, on the banker, on a tie, or on any combination of those three options.

Values of the Cards

In Baccarat the cards are valued as follows:

- 10, Jack, Queen and King are all valued at 0.

-2-9 are valued at the number shown on the card.

- Aces are valued at 1.

If the sum of the two cards is higher than 10 then only the second digit is considered - as an example 18 would be considered 8.

This means that scores of 10 or 20 are both considered as 0.

How to Bet

Select Chip Size - the chip sizes available in Baccarat start from £1. Select a chip size by clicking on one of the chips on the game screen.

Placing Bets - place a bet by clicking on a chip and then clicking within a bet box.

Removing Bets - To remove the last chip you placed click 'undo.'

Clear Bets - To remove all the bets from the table click on 'clear bets.'

Deal - Clicking 'Deal' starts the game.

Rebet - to repeat your bet from the previous game click 'rebet.'

How the cards are dealt

The player and the banker are each given two cards at the start of the game.

If either of the hands totals eight or nine then it is a 'natural' hand and both hands automatically stand.

If the sum of a player's hand is five or less, the player is given another card.

If the player does not draw a third card, the bank will stand on any score of six or above.
