However, much like the latter game, baccarat is based on a single total, in this case, nine. This storied hobby has its own set of rules and quirks, though, which requires a small amount of book learning by the player.<\/p>\n<p><!-- \/wp:paragraph --><!-- wp:paragraph --><\/p>\n<p>Don\u2019t be put off. Whether you&#8217;re playing at a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.casino.com\/near-me\/\">land-based casino<\/a> or in an online baccarat lobby, this game&#8217;s simplicity is sometimes compared to wagering on the toss of a coin (provided that it can land on its edge).<\/p>\n<p><!-- \/wp:paragraph --><!-- wp:paragraph --><\/p>\n<p>To reinforce that statement, today, we\u2019re going to look at <a href=\"https:\/\/www.casino.com\/baccarat\/\">baccarat<\/a> odds and payouts, learn how the house edge is applied, as well as\u00a0the different bets involved,\u00a0so that you have all the tools necessary to approach advanced baccarat play.<\/p>\n<p><!-- \/wp:paragraph --><!-- wp:paragraph --><\/p>\n<p>Let\u2019s begin with the odds of baccarat.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><!-- \/wp:paragraph --><!-- wp:heading --><\/p>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Baccarat Odds<\/h2>\n<p><!-- \/wp:heading --><!-- wp:paragraph --><\/p>\n<p>Odds tend to be an unchanging thing in a casino but certain rules and ways of playing can influence these numbers &#8211; for better or worse. In baccarat, the player will make one of three bets before a game begins. These are:<\/p>\n<p><!-- \/wp:paragraph --><!-- wp:list --><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"list-style-type: none\">\n<ul><!-- wp:list-item --><\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"list-style-type: none\">\n<ul>\n<li>Banker&#8217;s hand to win.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><!-- \/wp:list-item --><!-- wp:list-item --><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"list-style-type: none\">\n<ul>\n<li>Player&#8217;s hand to win.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><!-- \/wp:list-item --><!-- wp:list-item --><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"list-style-type: none\">\n<ul>\n<li>A tie.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><!-- \/wp:list-item --><\/p>\n<p><!-- \/wp:list --><!-- wp:paragraph --><\/p>\n<p>As you might have guessed, you\u2019re betting on the outcome of the game (who wins or whether it\u2019s a draw). After these bets are taken, both the player and the banker are dealt two cards. Then, as mentioned, the side with the total closest to nine wins. It\u2019s worth mentioning here that several cards have a value of zero (face cards, tens) while aces are worth a solitary one.<\/p>\n<p><!-- \/wp:paragraph --><!-- wp:paragraph --><\/p>\n<p>Baccarat is not played with any double-digit values. Totals that come to ten and over must either have their first digit removed or ten deducted from their overall value.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><!-- \/wp:paragraph --><!-- wp:paragraph --><\/p>\n<p>We\u2019ll cover this in later sections, but all the possible wagers in baccarat have a different house edge, odds, and payout size. Generally, the banker bet is the most likely to win, while the tie is a relatively rare outcome. Fittingly, these wagers have the lowest and highest baccarat payouts, respectively, and the best and worst baccarat odds.<\/p>\n<p><!-- \/wp:paragraph --><!-- wp:heading --><\/p>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The Influence of the House Edge<\/h2>\n<p><!-- \/wp:heading --><!-- wp:paragraph --><\/p>\n<p>In every <a href=\"https:\/\/www.casino.com\/\">casino<\/a> game, the house edge makes the casino more likely to win. This small taking is how the website pays for its upkeep, new games, and employee wages. Baccarat is a little strange in the sense that you can bet on the casino even with this\u00a0advantage intact.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><!-- \/wp:paragraph --><!-- wp:paragraph --><\/p>\n<p>This isn&#8217;t quite as generous a gift as it sounds, as you&#8217;ll have to pay a 5% commission on a winning bet for the privilege. Be aware that two different things are at work here: the baccarat house edge and the commission. These are not the same.<\/p>\n<p><!-- \/wp:paragraph --><!-- wp:paragraph --><\/p>\n<p>As a golden rule, betting on the bank is the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.casino.com\/blog\/guides\/baccarat\/baccarat-tips\/\">best way to play baccarat<\/a>, despite the extra fine print.

However, the casino&#8217;s slight advantage does reduce your chances of winning and, therefore, the amount you can win over a certain period. A\u00a0baccarat table is still a place of high odds and payouts, though.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><!-- \/wp:paragraph --><!-- wp:heading --><\/p>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Payouts and Odds<\/h2>\n<p><!-- \/wp:heading --><!-- wp:paragraph --><\/p>\n<p>The most important part of any casino game, the total baccarat payouts and baccarat odds are listed below, along with a few important notes.<\/p>\n<p><!-- \/wp:paragraph --><!-- wp:heading {\"level\":3} --><\/p>\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The Banker Bet<\/h3>\n<p><!-- \/wp:heading --><!-- wp:paragraph --><\/p>\n<p>The odds on a bet on the banker winning in baccarat are\u00a045.86%.
