| At
the American Baccarat only two hands
are dealt: the "banker" hand
and the "player" hand, regardless
of the number of players at the table.
The object of baccarat game is to bet
on which of two hands will have a score
closest to 9.
Players make bets before the hands
are dealt any amount from the table
minimum to the table maximum. There
are three betting options:
1· Player hand
2· Bank hand
3· Tie
The Game
is played with 8 or 6 complete decks
of cards. The dealer shuffled the
cards, and then placed in a special
box called the "shoe."
The players passing the shoe counterclockwise
around the table to rotates the deal,
and each "Player" can be
the "Banker". As long as
the “banker” hand keeps
winning the same person will keep
dealing.
The banker-hand will be represented
for the player with the shoe, although
the player takes no additional risk
and the casino remains the banker.
Even though the player dealing is
acting as the Banker, he is not obligated
to bet on the Banker’s hand.
4 cards are dealt face-down by the
house dealer, 2 to the player-hand
and 2 to the banker-hand. The player
who wagers the largest amount on "player"
gets first look at the player-hand.
Natural: If either hand has a total
of 8 or 9 (the highest), and the casino
dealer stops the cards dealt. But
if it is not a natural, depending
on the value of each hand the dealer
may instruct the card dealer to draw
a third card.
To play
Baccarat just do a bet. Once a
bet has been placed, there are no
opportunities for further decisions
- both the banker hand and the player
hand are dealt according to Baccarat
Drawing Rules.
Fixed rules results of the Baccarat's
in final hands of either two or three
cards for each. The casino
dealer keeps track of the gambler-hand
and the banker-hand totals and says
which is the winning hand.
The hand that holds 2 or 3 cards
totaling closest to nine will be the
winning hand. Bets on the banker or
player are returned, if there is a
tie.
