History of the Game

Baccarat has its roots in Italy and France in the 15th century. Originally called “baccara”, it was a popular card game amongst European nobility. When the game spread to South America in the 19th century, its current form started to take shape. “Punto banco” baccarat was popularized in Havana and later Las Vegas. Today, baccarat is played worldwide, especially in Macau’s premier casinos. The live dealer format brings back the classic table atmosphere that’s defined baccarat for centuries.

Game Rules and Mechanics

Live Baccarat 1 NC follows standard baccarat rules. Two hands are dealt – the Player and the Banker. The goal is to bet on the hand that comes closest to 9. Face cards and 10s have no value, while Aces count as 1. If either hand totals over 9, the second digit constitutes the value. So a 5 and 8 would total 3 rather than 13.

The dealer handles all cards while players focus on placing bets. Wagers are made on the Player, Banker or Tie before cards are drawn. There are also side bet options. The hand with the highest point value wins. Payouts vary based on which bets succeed.

Types of Bets and Payouts

Player Bet

Description: Betting on the Player hand to win by getting a point total closest to 9.
Payout: 1:1 (Even money)
House Edge: Approximately 1.24%
Odds: The Player bet wins approximately 44.6% of the time.

Banker Bet

Description: Betting on the Banker hand to win. In many traditional baccarat games, a 5% commission is charged on winning Banker bets. However, in a “No Commission” version, this is often replaced by a different payout structure for certain wins.
Payout: 1:1 (Even money)
House Edge: 1.06% (In standard games)
Odds: The Banker bet wins approximately 45.8% of the time, making it the statistically favorable option.

Tie Bet

Description: Betting that the Player and Banker hands will result in a tie (same point value).
Payout: 8:1 or sometimes 9:1 (depends on the table rules)
House Edge: Very high, at around 14.36%
Odds: The Tie bet wins about 9.5% of the time. While it offers an attractive payout, the probability of hitting this bet is low.
