Learn How to Play Baccarat
What’s Baccarat?
Baccarat is an easy card game played with eight decks in a shoe at the Baccarat table, where you have boxes for placing your chips. The aim is to guess which hand (the player’s or banker’s) will have a higher value, with a maximum point of 9.
How to Play Baccarat?
1. Betting: Start by putting your chips on either player or banker.
2. Dealing Cards: The dealer gives one card each to both player and banker, then does it again until each box has two cards.
3. Finding the Winner: If your bet matches the highest combination, you win! Otherwise, you lose that round. There are also rules for drawing a third card that we’ll cover next.

Card Rankings:
The highest value is 9.
Tens and face cards count as zero points.
Cards from 2 to 9 are worth their face value.
Aces count as one point.
Calculating Points: If your total goes over nine, just take the second digit. For example, if you have ten, it becomes zero; eleven becomes one.Winning: The hand closest to nine wins!Tie: If both hands tie in value, it’s a draw—no one wins or loses. Optional bets pay according to the payout table.
