How to play Mini Baccarat

Mini Baccarat is fun and is a great introduction to the Baccarat table. Being a faster version of Baccarat, it makes Mini Baccarat not only a fun game but one of the simplest of all to play. In fact all you have to do is decide whether the ‘Banker’s Hand’, the ‘Player’s Hand’ or the ‘Tie’ is to be the next winning hand from the shoe and place your bets before the cards are dealt.

Two hands are dealt, one hand for the ‘Player’s Hand’ and one for the ‘Banker’s Hand’. One additional card may be dealt to each hand and in accordance with the table of play (tableau). Players are not generally permitted to handle the cards.

Good luck!

How to PlayBaccarat

In Baccarat, face cards and ten cards have no value, all other cards have their face value and the fi rst digit of any total greater than nine is discounted.

Therefore the highest count possible is nine. For example, 2 plus 7 equals 9, 10 plus king equals 0, 6 plus 8 equals 4. If both hands result in the same point value it is a Tie hand (Egalite) and neither hand wins nor loses.

No Commission Baccarat

All winning wagers on player and backer are paid at the odds on 1 to 1 (even money) with one exception. When the banker’s hand wins with a total of six, all winning banker bets are paid at the odds of 1 to 2. The dealer will announce, “Bank wins”.

The house margin for Baccarat is around 1.3%

How to play Baccarat

Baccarat, also known as Punto Banco, is similar to the game of Chemin de Fer. Baccarat is one of the easiest games to play and is widely played throughout the world.

To play Baccarat you only need to decide where to place your bet: on the ‘Banker’s Hand’, the ‘Player’s Hand’ or on the ‘Tie Bet’ before the cards are dealt. All decisions pertaining to the game are made by the dealer in accordance with the rules.

Baccarat is played with eight decks of cards. The cards are shuffl ed by the dealer and placed in the Baccarat ‘shoe’.

Play begins with four cards dealt from the shoe by the dealer. First card to the ‘Player’s Hand’, second to the ‘Banker’s Hand’, third to the ‘Player’s Hand’ and fourth to the ‘Banker’s Hand’.

You may bet on either hand. One additional card may be dealt to each hand in accordance with the table of play (tableau).

The hand with the highest point count wins. Picture cards and tens count as zero.

• Winning bets on the ‘Player’s Hand’ are paid at even money.

• Winning bets on the ‘Banker’s Hand’ are paid even money less 5% commission.

• Winning ‘Tie Bets’ are paid 8 to 1.
