Progressive Baccarat
This is a standard game of Baccarat with an additional chance to win a progressive jackpot. We offer seven decks Baccarat. If you are not familiar with Baccarat rules, read them here.
Progressive Baccarat Rules
The object of baccarat is to obtain a hand with a point total closest to 9. Aces count as one; 2 through 9 as their face value; tens and picture cards count as zero. If the value of the hand is a two-digit number, ignore the first digit. The last digit is the baccarat point value of the hand. For example: 7+6=13=3 and 4+6=10=0
Place your wager on the banker's hand and/or on the player's hand and/or on a tie. The player and the banker are then each dealt a two-card hand. In certain cases, a third card is dealt to the player or the banker or both (Third Card Rules). Cards are dealt from a shoe that holds 6 decks of cards. The decks are shuffled each round.
The player closest to 9, wins.
If you bet on the player and the player wins, you are paid 2 for 1 winnings on your bet.
If you bet on the banker and the banker wins, you are paid 2 for 1 minus 5% bank commission (vigorish).
If both the player's hand and the banker's hand have equal totals, the game result is a "tie". If you have placed a bet on the "tie" field, your payoff is 9 for 1. Non-tie bets are returned to you if a tie occurs.
Third Card Rules
The following baccarat rule chart governs when the player and/or the banker will automatically be dealt (i.e. "draws") a third card in the baccarat game:
Player
Point Value of First Two Cards:
0 – 1 – 2 – 3 – 4 – 5 Draws a card.
6 – 7 Stands.
8 – 9 "Natural hand" , no further draw.
If the player stands, then the banker hits on a total of 5 or less. If the player does hit then use the table below to determine if the banker hits or stands.
Banker
Point Value of First Two Cards: Draws when the player's third card is: Does not draw when the player's third card is:
0 – 1 – 2 Always draws a card.
3 0 – 1 – 2 – 3 – 4 – 5 – 6 – 7 – 9 8
4 2 – 3 – 4 – 5 – 6 – 7 0 – 1 – 8 – 9
5 4 – 5 – 6 – 7 0 – 1 – 2 – 3 – 8 – 9
6 6 – 7 0 – 1 – 2 – 3 – 4 – 5 – 8 – 9
7 Always stands.
8 – 9 Player cannot draw. Player cannot draw.
Important note: If either the player and /or the Banker has a total of 8 or 9, they both stand. This Rule overrides all other rules.
To play the game:
*
A game round is probably in progress at the moment you enter. You can wager in the ongoing betting round, if there is some betting time left. Similarly, you can place bets in the following betting rounds, if there are any to come within this game round.
*
Click on a chip of desired value to select it. Then move your cursor over the Baccarat table and click either on the Player, Banker, or Tie bet area to place your bet there. You can do the same for side bets. Every click on the area adds one chip to the bet. Select another chip if you wish to increase the bet by some other amount. Right clicking on the area removes one chip. You can place several chips into several areas at the same time. When finished placing your bets, click the Confirm bets button.
*
Your personal minimum and maximum game limits apply for each betting round. You can arrange your bets on Player, Banker, Tie, and side bets so that you do not exceed the maximum game limit.
*
You have a limited amount of time to place a bet from the moment a betting round begins. Then the cards are dealt. Bet amounts per player are accumulated from the first to the last betting round. The sum of your bets at any given point is shown in the Bet field of the information window (in the upper left corner).
*
If any of your bets win, you receive your winnings at the end of the game round. Your win sum is displayed as a single sum over all betting rounds in the Win field in the upper left corner of the screen.
*
You can skip a betting round by simply not placing any bets on the table.
*
Before the start of each game round, one card is drawn from the deck face down and "burned" (discarded).
