Baccarat Rules

The object of baccarat is to obtain a hand with a point total closest to 9. Aces count as one; 2 through 9 as their face value; tens and picture cards count as zero. If the value of the hand is ten points or more, subtract ten, and the remainder is the baccarat point value of the hand. For example: 7+6=13=3 and 4+6=10=0

Place your wager on the bankers hand and/or on the players hand and/or on a tie. The player and the banker are then each dealt a two-card hand. In certain cases, a third card is dealt to the player or the banker or both (Third Card Rules). Cards are dealt from a shoe that holds 6 decks of cards. The decks are shuffled each round.

The player closest to 9, wins.
If you bet on the player and the player wins, you are paid 2 for 1 winnings on your bet.
If you bet on the banker and the banker wins, you are paid 2 for 1 minus 5% bank commission (vigorish).
If both the players hand and the bankers hand have equal totals, the game result is a tie. If you have placed a bet on the tie field, your payoff is 9 for 1.

Third Card Rules

The following baccarat rule chart governs when the player and/or the banker will automatically be dealt (i.e. draws) a third card in the baccarat game:

Player
Point Value of First Two Cards:  
0 1 2 - 3 4 5 Draws a card.
6 7 Stands.
8 9 Natural hand, no further draw.
Banker
Point Value of First Two Cards: Draws when the players third card is: Does not draw when the players third card is:
0 1 2 Always draws a card.  
3 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 9 8
4 2 3 4 5 6 7 0 1 8 9
5 4 5 6 7 0 1 2 3 8 9
6 6 7 0 1 2 3 4 5 8 9
7 Always stands.

Blackjack Rules

The object of blackjack is for the total of your cards to be closer to 21 than the dealers cards, without exceeding 21. In blackjack, aces count as either 1 or 11, face cards as 10, and number cards as their face value.
If you receive an ace and a ten-value card as your first two cards, you have blackjack and win one and a half times your bet (if you bet was $10, you receive $25). If the total value of your cards is closer to 21 than the dealers, you win as much as you had wagered (if your bet was $10, you receive $20). If the total of your cards is more than 21, you bust and lose your bet. If you and the dealer have the same card total (17 and up) neither of you win and your bet is returned to you in a push. Blackjack beats a score of 21.

OnLine Casino blackjack is played with six decks and the game follows the standard Las Vegas Strip rules, with the following exceptions:

  • The deck is shuffled after each round.

  • The player may not split a split hand.

  • The player may double after splitting.

  • If the player doubles and the dealers first card is of value 10, and the dealer gets blackjack, the player loses only the initial bet.

Split

If your first two cards have the same point value, you may split them into two separate hands by placing a second bet equal to the original bet. You then proceed to draw cards. You may draw as many cards as you like on each split hand, but if you split two aces, you receive only one additional card for each ace. If you split two aces and one of your hands totals 21, it is counted as 21 and not blackjack.

Double

After you are dealt two cards, and think that another card will allow you to beat the dealers hand, you can increase your bet by an amount up to your original bet or double your bet. Your wager is doubled, and you are allowed to receive one more card.

Insurance

Insurance is considered to be a game of its own within blackjack. It allows you to try and protect yourself when you think that the dealer may have blackjack. When buying insurance, you place half of your initial bet by pressing the Insurance button. If the dealer does have blackjack, you are paid 2 to 1 on your insurance bet. If the dealer doesnt have blackjack, you lose your insurance bet.
