Baccarat Rules
Card Values
Aces count as 1, picture cards and tens count 0, all other
cards count their face value. If the sum of the cards is more than 10 or 20 then
10 or 20 is respectively deducted to give the hand's value between 0 and 9.
Betting
Bets are placed by gamblers in the banker, player or the tie box
in front of where they are usually seated.
First Deal
The dealer places two cards face up to the banker and player
box starting with the player hand. If either banker or player hand scores 8 or 9
then that is called a 'natural' and no more cards will be dealt to either hand.
Players Third Card Rule
Assuming neither hand got a 'natural'
If the players hand scores 6 or 7 then it does not take a third card.
If the players hand scores 0 to 5 then it draws a third card.
You don't need to memorise this the croupier should know what to do.
Bankers Third Card Rule
Assuming neither hand got a 'natural'
If the bankers hand scores 0 to 2 then it draws a third card.
If the bankers hand scores 3 then it draws a third card if the players
third card was not an 8.
If the bankers hand scores 4 then it draws a third card if the players
third card was not an Ace, 8, 9, 10, Jack, Queen or King
If the bankers hand scores 5 then it draws a third card if the players
hand stands on 6 or 7 or if the players third card was an Ace, 2, 3, 8, 9, 10,
Jack, Queen or King
If the bankers hand scores 6 then it draws a third card if the players
third card was an Ace, 2, 3, 4, 5, 8, 9, 10, Jack, Queen or King
If the bankers hand scores 7 then it always stands.
You don't need to memorise this the croupier should know what to do.
