[ VERBATIM FROM CASINO RULES PAGE...]
Betting
- The player selects betting chips and places
them in the PLAYER, TIE or BANKER slots.
- Bet amounts are limited by MAX BET and MIN
BET.
Playing
- Each hand is dealt 2 cards.
- Numbered cards have face value.
- 10, J, Q and K are counted as 0.
- Aces are counted as 1.
- If the total points of a hand exceed 10,
only the last digit is considered. Hence, 9 is the highest possible.
- A third card may be dealt to each hand (see
The Third Card).
- The hand with the higher points wins. If
they are equal, it is a tie.
- A third card may be dealt to each hand
according to these rules which the player need not memorize:
- If either the player's or banker's
two-card hand has a total of 8 or 9 points, the hand is called a natural
and no more cards are dealt.
- If the player's hand is below 6, a third
card is dealt to the player.
- If no third card is dealt to the player,
the banker stands on 6 and above and gets a third card on 5 or less.
- If a third card is dealt to the player,
the banker follows these rules:
- On 2 or less, the banker draws a
third card.
- On 3, the banker draws a third card
unless the player's third card is an 8.
- On 4, the banker draws a third card
unless the player's third card is a 0, 1, 8, or 9.
- On 5, the banker draws a third card
if the player's third card is 4, 5, 6, or 7.
- On 6, the banker draws a third card
if the player's third card is a 6 or 7.
- On 7, the banker stands.
- Baccarat pays 1 to 1, except the TIE bet
which pays 8 to 1.
- There's a 5% commission for all winning bets
on the Banker hand.
