Baccarat is one of the most famous casino card games in the world - played in the VIP sections of real casinos from Monte Carlo to London and Las Vegas, as well as by secret agents and supervillains in spy thrillers and action films. Now you can enjoy this legendary game, using real cards dealt by real dealers, from the comfort of your home thanks to Live Baccarat.
Baccarat is a simple game to learn and play. Two-card hands are dealt to the player and the dealer - known in Baccarat as the Banker - with the object of the game being to score as close to 9 as possible. 10s and picture cards count as zero, aces as one, and other cards score according to their denominations.
Depending on the total scored on the first two cards, a third card may be drawn. Players can place bets on either the Player or the Banker to win, or on a tie. Player wins pay out at 1:1, even-money, with Banker wins paid at the same odds minus a 5% commission. Tie bets are paid at odds of 8:1. There are two additional side bets available from which a player can choose from - Player Pair or Banker Pair. If selected, each side bet pays 11:1.
