Punto Banco is a popular card game in the Czech Republic. Originating in Italy in the 1700s, Punto Banco made its way to the Czech Republic in the late 19th century. It is now one of the most popular live casino games in the country, played in live casinos, online, and on mobile devices.
In Punto Banco, players compete against the bank, rather than each other, by trying to obtain a hand of cards with a value of nine or as close to it as possible. The game is played with six or eight decks of cards and the player can bet on either the Banker or the Player.
Due to the increased availability of online casino games, Punto Banco is now one of the most popular live casino games among Czech players. The game has become popular due to its accessibility, the social aspect of playing with other players, and the fact that it is one of the easiest games to learn.
