What is Baccarat?

Baccarat is one of the most popular card games in the world of casino, with the rules being simple to understand, even for new players. The general objective of the game is to guess which of the two hands of cards will have a total closest to 9. Bets must be placed before the hands are revealed, with the two hands being known as the Player hand and the Bank hand. In terms of card value, all tens, Jacks, Queens and Kings have a value of zero, an ace has a value of one, and all remaining numbered cards score at their face value. If you wager on the player hand and it comes nearest to nine, you win twice your stake. If you wager on the banker hand and it’s a winning hand, the payout is 95% of your stake as the banker will take 5% commission.  You can also bet on the two hands being tied, which will provide an 8x payout. A slight twist in this classic game is the addition of a third card. When a players’ hand only adds up to between 0-5, a third card will be drawn. This will be done automatically by the dealer and simply adds a further opportunity to win if your score is too low. Baccarat is hugely popular for its low volatility and player-friendly rules. Whether you are an expert or a novice, Baccarat is a fun card game to explore.

History of Baccarat

Baccarat has a history dating back to the early 1400’s, with historians crediting Italy with the creation of the game. The original inventor was named Felix Falguiere, who named the game “baccara”. That translates to “Zero” in English and was named as such due to face cards and 10’s being worth zero points. The game spread around Europe and became particularly popular in France, who then added the “t” to create the spelling we all recognise today, “Baccarat”. King Charles VIII was said to be a massive fan of the card game, and there was a time in the 1800’s that Baccarat was strictly played by the richest and noblest of citizens. Baccarat eventually made it to the USA in the 1950’s who are responsible for the version of the game we know and love today.
