Baccarat is a card game that is typically played against the dealer. It is easy to play and requires minimal strategy. In Baccarat, the player and the dealer each receive two cards. The aim of Baccarat is to get the total of the cards closest to 9. There is no need for players to play strategically or apply any complex strategies.
The table layout for Baccarat is the same for almost all casinos. It has three bets: Player, Banker and Tie. The player and banker each have two columns of betting boxes in front of them and each player has an opportunity to make a bet before each round of cards. The minimum bet is usually known and may vary slightly from casino to casino. The game starts with a single card dealt to each of the player and dealer. After the first two cards have been dealt, the player and dealer will check their hands to see if either has a total of 8 or 9. If neither has a total of 8 or 9, a third card may be dealt to either or both.
