You could play baccarat online in websites like G Club (จีคลับ). In this article, let us discuss the gameplay of baccarat in brief.
Decks – As you would know a deck is a collection of cards. Usually, there would be six to eight decks of cards in every baccarat game. Some variations of the game will make use of a limited number of decks also. However, you should keep in mind that in some of the variations, the number of cards in a deck will vary. For instance, Super pan 9 will contain decks of thirty-six cards alone.
Card values in baccarat – As we know, the game is based on the card values and there should be some value to every card used. It is necessary to know the following values of each card.
- Every face card (K, J, Q) will be of no value or a zero
- The card of Ace will have the value of one
- Among the numbered cards, ten alone will have no value or a zero
- All other numbered cards starting from two through to nine will have their original values themselves.
Hand value– The objective of the game of Baccarat is to get a total of nine or something closer to it. To calculate this total, there is an additional mechanism. At first, the dealer will place two cards each on the two hands. Afterward, he will add the two face values based on the card’s value. Let us assume that the two cards are a four and a five. So, the sum is nine. If the sum is nine, the hand wins. Likewise, there will be two-digit numbers at times. If so, the unit’s digit will come into consideration.
Betting options in baccarat – You would have two options to place your bets in Baccarat. You can choose to place on the banker’s hand if you think that hand will get a total close to nine. Else, you can place it on the player’s hand. However, the name will not imply that you should place only on the player’s hand.
Payout in baccarat – Payout is the prize amount given for the player if his hand wins the game. The payout percentage will be in one-to-one proportion if your hand is on the banker’s hand.
Third card rule
Player hand – If the player’s hand has anything lower than five, it will get a third card for the next round.
Banker hand – If the banker’s hand has something between zero and two or if the hand is something from the below combinations, it can get the third card.
- A three with the banker’s hand and the player has anything but eight or nine.
- A four with the banker’s hand and the other hand has something from two to seven.
- A five with the banker’s hand and the other has anything from 4 to 7.
- A six with the banker’s hand and the other one has a six or seven.
- A seven with the banker’s hand and the player stands.
