Baccarat has long held a reputation as the most exclusive, intimidating game on the [casino](http://211.252.86.231:3000/portervanraalt) floor.
+
Many beginners assume that a game favored by the elite must have incredibly complex rules and require deep strategic knowledge.
+
It is, fundamentally, nothing more than a sophisticated coin flip disguised behind French terminology.
+
Once you strip away the velvet ropes and the aura of exclusivity, you are left with an incredibly fast, straightforward game of chance.
+
Let's break down the rules, explain how the hands are scored, and reveal the only strategy you will ever need.
+How the Cards are Scored in Baccarat
+
In every round of Baccarat, the dealer will place two hands of cards on the table: the "Player" hand and the "Banker" hand.
+
They are simply two arbitrary hands of cards; you are merely placing a wager on the outcome of their duel.
+
Tens, Jacks, Queens, and Kings are worth absolutely zero points in Baccarat.
+
If a hand receives a 9 and a 9, the sum is 18. Drop the "1", and the true value is an 8.
+
The highest possible score is a perfect 9, and the lowest possible score is a 0 (e.g., a hand of two Queens).
+Why Baccarat Requires Zero Skill
+
If the Player's initial total is 0 through 5, they must draw a third card; if it is 6 or 7, they stand.
+
Looking at the third-card chart can cause a beginner to instantly panic and walk away from the table.
+
The casino dealer has memorized the complex matrix and handles all the card drawing strictly according to the rules.
+
Your involvement in the game completely ends the moment you place your chips on the betting circle.
+
Do not let the complex mechanics of the dealer deter you from playing this incredibly simple game.
+Why the Banker Bet is the Best Option
+
To do this, we must look at the house edge associated with each of the three possible wagers: Player, Banker, and Tie.
+
However, because of the complex third-card rules, the "Banker" hand is mathematically designed to win slightly more often than the Player hand.
+
If you bet $100 on the Banker and win, the dealer will pay you $95 (keeping $5 as the commission).
+
Many professional players will simply sit at a table and stubbornly bet the Banker every single hand, completely ignoring the results board.
+
While the Tie bet offers a tempting 8 to 1 payout, the true odds of a tie occurring are roughly 9.5 to 1.
+Quick Reference Guide to Baccarat
+
+Card Values: 2-9 are face value. Aces are 1. Tens and Face Cards (J, Q, K) are worth 0.
+The Banker Bet: Pays 1 to 1, minus a 5% casino commission. House Edge is 1.06%. The mathematically superior bet.
+The Third Card Rule: A complex set of rules the dealer follows. You do not need to memorize or understand it.
+Mini-Baccarat: A faster, lower-limit version played on a smaller table. Perfect for beginners to learn the flow.
