Baccarat rules

If you're looking for a really simple game that pays well then baccarat is the game for you.  To play all you need to do is place a bet on either "player", "banker" or "tie", and the dealer does the rest.

A winning bet on "player" pays even money, while a winning bet on "banker" pays even money less a 5% house commission.  Winning bets on a tie usually pay 8 to 1.  The banker and player bets are the smarter bets, attracting only a 1% house edge.  The tie bet has a 14% house edge and should be avoided. 

House edge for banker and the house taking just over 1% for banker and player bets.  The tie bet is not a good option, with the casino taking around 14% on this bet.
