Despite its glamorous reputation, baccarat is actually one of the simplest games in the casino.
+
The rules are entirely automated, meaning the dealer handles all the actual gameplay mechanics.
+How Baccarat Scoring Works
+
There are only two hands dealt in the game: the Player hand and the Banker hand.
+
Cards two through nine are worth their face value, while tens and face cards are worth zero.
+Tens and face cards count as zeroIf the total goes over 9, drop the first digitThe dealer automatically draws third cards
+The Banker Bet vs. The Player Bet
+
Mathematically, the Banker bet is the safest wager you can make on the casino floor.
+
Even with the commission factored in, the Banker bet boasts an incredibly low house edge of 1.06%.
+Why You Should Avoid the Tie Bet
+
The house edge on the Tie bet skyrockets to over 14%, making it a statistically ruinous choice.
+
Although the high payout is alluring, the probability of a tie occurring is mathematically very low.
