Playing Baccarat

Despite its high class demeanor, Baccarat is actually pretty easy to play. The dealer deals the player the first and third card while dealing himself the second and fourth card. The Aces count as one, while the face and ten cards count as zero. The remaining cards are counted based on their given numerical value. The objective of Baccarat is to be dealt a hand that's adds up as close to 9 as you can get. Bet on either the dealer's hand, your own hand, or wager on a tie. You are betting on who will have the higher hand of cards. Bet anywhere between $5 and $100.

If you bet on the player and win, you get even money. If you bet on the banker and win, you get even money minus a 5% commission that the house takes. If you bet on a tie and win, you get a 8 to 1 payout.
