Play, Bank or Tie? You decide!

Baccarat is ideal for players looking for high thrills without needing to learn complex rules. You need to know:

• You can bet on the Bank or the Player. The aim is to achieve a total of 9 points with two or three cards. You can also bet on a tie, although winning bets of this kind receive 8x1.
• The game is played with 6 decks of 52 cards, half of each color.
• Cards are worth their numerical value. Royals and 10s are worth nothing - they score 0. When scoring you discount the tens, for example: 8+6 = 14 = 4.

The aim of the game is get 9 points or the score that comes closest, with two or three cards. First, the dealer shuffles the cards and one of the players cuts the pack. Once the cards are introduced in the Shoe or Sabot (dispenser), the dealer turns one over and discards the number of cards of its face value. Then, the players place their bets in the boxes. They can choose to bet on Punto, Banco or Draw (Tie). Next, the dealer will turn over a total of four cards on the table. The first and third (on his right) represent Punto, while the second and fourth (on his left) correspond to Banco. The winning hand, that is, Punto or Banco, is the one closest to 9 points. If a hand reaches 8 or 9 points with the first two cards, the game would be closed without players being able to ask for a third playing card. If they sum 5 points or less, a third card must be drawn (see the draw table), and the hand closest to 9 wins. In case of a tie between the two options, bets placed on the draw, or tie, win.
