Baccarat Casino Rules
Baccarat is an exciting card game that was a featured plot device in
the James Bond novel Casino Royale by Ian Flemming. It originated
in Italy during the middle ages and derives its name from the Italian word
for "zero", because the face cards and Tens – which normally are high value The object is to bet on which of two hands (the "Player" or the "Banker") will have a score closest to 9. You can bet on either hand – or you can bet on a tie. Dealing and Scoring Baccarat is played with eight decks of cards, shuffled and placed in
a "shoe". Each hand will receive at least two cards, but no more than three.
The first and third cards dealt from the shoe constitute the Player's hand
and the second and forth cards constitute the Banker's hand. If required,
a third card is dealt to either hand according to specific rules outlined
in the charts below. All cards are dealt face up.
Card values are:
Examples of point scoring:
Since the object of each hand is to get as close to 9 as possible, getting a score of 8 or 9 with the first two cards is a good thing. This is called a "natural", and if EITHER hand scores a natural, BOTH hands must stand. Naturally (pardon the pun), the only score that will beat a natural 8 is a natural 9. Game Play Two cards are dealt face up to both the Player and the Banker. If one hand has a natural, that hand s. If both hands have a natural, the higher natural wins. If both hands have the same natural, it's a tie. If neither the Player nor the Banker has a natural, then play goes to the Player. The Player's hand stands on a score of 6 or 7. If the score is less than 6, the Player draws one card and receives a new score based on the value of all three cards. Rules of Play for Player
Now it is the Banker's turn. When the Player stands on 6 or 7 (and therefore did not draw a third card), the Banker's play is quite straightforward. The Banker must draw on scores of 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, or 5 and stand on 6 or 7. Rules of Play for Banker when Player Stands on 6 or 7
However, if the Player did draw a third card, the Banker's play gets more interesting. In this case, the Banker stands on a score of 7 but draws or stands on scores of 6 or less depending on the value of the Player's THIRD CARD (not on the score of the Player's HAND). The rules governing whether the Banker draws or stands are as follows: Rules of Play for Banker when Player Draws a Third Card
Winning
If both hands result in equal scores, the Tie bet wins, paying 8-to-1. When a tie occurs, all bets on either the Player or the Banker are a push (neither paid nor taken).2 |
