The goal of this game is to get a hand with a total number of points closest to 9. Aces count as one, the numbered cards 2-9 are at their shown value, Tens and Face cards are 0. If the hand total is over 9 drop the first digit, subtracting 10 to reduce the score to a legal count of 9 or less. No worries as this mini-baccarat game is quite simple and the gaming software handles all of this for you, it even delivers a third card, or 'hit' when needed according to some fairly complicated rules that favor the Banker hand. Hint: Always bet on Banker, even with the 5% commission removed from your winnings for that bet your odds are still better over all if you never waiver from that bet.

Players can also choose to bet on a tie or bet on tie in addition to Player or Banker bets. Ties pay 8:1 in this game and are a poor bet except as a hunch or near the end of chips as ties appear far less often than one out of ten hands. In a nutshell playing Baccarat online is as easy as flipping a coin – that coin is just a little bit heavier on the Banker side.
