Baccarat is a game of chance with no strategy involved – this becomes more obvious in the online versions of mini-baccarat where players are not required to understand the intricate 3rd card or 'hit' rules, as they are never handed the shoe nor expected to parse the different rules that apply to Banker and Player. Your goal is simply to predict whether Player or Banker hand will come closer to 9. Players can also bet on Tie, but regardless of a 10:1 or 8:1 payout this is a sucker's bet due to the almost 15% house edge.

Bets on Player pay even money, bets on Banker pay even money minus a 5% commission on the win for 95% profit. The rules are such that even with the commission deducted from a Banker bet, this is still the best bet by a small margin. Advice – always bet on Banker. This is the only element of skill a player can bring to bare.
