The Game:
Online Baccarat is played with six decks of playing cards that are re-shuffled
after each hand at Casino-on-Net Online. Cards are dealt from a shoe,
like in the card game Blackjack. Bets can be placed on either the Player's
side, the Bank side, or on a Tie. Four cards are then dealt, the first
and third to the Player, the second and fourth to the Banker.
The point totals for each of the hands is shown below. When a hand totals
8 or 9, each of these numbers is called a "Natural", and no more cards
will be dealt. The winning hand is the total value closest to 9 points.
A "Tie" is declared when both hands have equal values.
The Dealer may need to deal a third card, dependant on the initial hand
point value. Drawn face up; first to the Player hand and then to the Banker
hand, if necessary. Only one additional card may be dealt per hand. The
following rules are for the occurrence of a third card being dealt.
Objective:
Players place wagers on the hand they believe will win the round, the
winning hand is the closest hand to a total point value of 9 without going
over.
Betting Options:
Players can wager on these three choices: the player hand, the banker
hand or a tie bet hand. It is also possible to bet on the banker and the
player hand or tie at the same time.
Card Values:
Ace cards equal 1 point.
2 through 9 cards are their face value.
10 and Picture cards equal zero.
For example:
| 9+7=16 |
Hand counts 6 |
| 5+5+5=15 |
Hand counts 5 |
| 10+9=19 |
Hand is a "Natural" 9 |
| King+Ace+5=16 |
Hand counts 6 |

Payout:

bet $5 on the Player hand, and the Player hand wins, you will get
your $5 back, in addition to another $5.
- Banker's winning hand wagers are also paid 1 to 1. The House charges
a 5 percent commission, called vigorish, on all of the winning Bank
wagers. The commission is deducted immediately and automatically during
the pay-out of the winnings. For example: if you bet $5 on the Banker
hand, and the Banker hand wins, you will get your $5 bet back, plus
another $4.75, which includes the $.25 deduction from the house charge.
- Winning tie bet wagers are paid 8 to 1. For example: if you bet
$5 on the Tie hand, and Banker and Player have the same hand count,
you will get your $5 bet back, in addition to another $40.
