A Deep Dive into Baccarat: The Elegant Casino Game


Baccarat may have a reputation as a high-stakes game for the elite, but it's actually one of the easiest casino games to learn. With a very low house edge and minimal decision-making, it's an appealing option for all skill levels.

The Objective and Basic Rules
Baccarat is a comparing card game played between two hands: the "Player" and the "Banker". Your goal is to correctly predict which of the two hands will get a point total nearer to 9. You can bet on the Player's hand to win, the Banker's hand to win, or for casino the hands to Tie.

Scoring the Hands

Cards 2-9: These cards hold their pip value. 10s, Jacks, Queens, and Kings (Face Cards): All have a value of 0. Aces: Are worth 1 point.


The score of a hand is the rightmost digit of the sum of the cards. If you have a 7 and an 8, casino your total is 5 (from 15). If the Player or Banker is dealt a total of 8 or 9 on the first two cards, it's called a "natural" and the round ends.

Which Bet is Best?
After you make your wager, the rest of the game is on autopilot. The dealer handles everything according to strict "tableau" rules. Let's examine the three wagers and their associated odds.

Bet Casino Advantage What to Know

Banker ~1.06% Despite a 5% commission on wins, this is the smartest bet you can make. It has the lowest house edge of the three.

Player Very Low (1.24%) This wager is almost as good as the Banker bet and is a perfectly acceptable choice.

Tie ~14.36% The high payout of 8:1 or 9:1 is designed to attract players, but the odds are terrible. This is considered a sucker bet.


The optimal strategy for casino baccarat couldn't be easier: always wager on the Banker. It might seem repetitive, but it is the mathematically soundest way to play the game. With its elegant pace and player-friendly odds, casino it's easy to see why baccarat remains so popular.
