Baccaratby Galewind Software Corp.

Baccarat from Galewind is one of the most generous games we have found online. The game is dealt from a 6 deck shoe and players are never asked to deal. Rather than losing 5% commission on a winning Banker hand, players will only pay 4% this cuts the house edge on the best bet in the game by over 40% Even at 5% the odds are better for a player, after commission, when betting on the Banker hand rather than Player – this rule just makes the bet even better. Most software providers offer an 8:1 payout on tie bets, making it the absolute worst bet on the table, however Galewind loosens this up to and pays 9:1. It is still not a wise bet at about 95% RTP but the liberal rules lowers the house edge on that bet by about 10% making a great way to pull off a “Hail Mary” to get back in the game now and then.

Despite the general mystery and intrigue surrounding the game it is really no more than a coin flip because all of your decisions are made before the cards are dealt. Stick with the Baker bet for best overall odds of winning, use the Player bet when you feel lucky, and try a Tie now and then when you are significantly ahead or almost out of the game.
