Baccarat has long held a reputation as the most exclusive, intimidating game on the casino floor.
+
Because of this glamorous reputation, the average casino player often feels too intimidated to even approach a Baccarat table.
+
The massive irony is that Baccarat is actually the simplest table game in the entire casino.
+
Furthermore, Baccarat offers some of the absolute best mathematical odds available to a casino player.
+
In this article, we will completely demystify the game of Baccarat for the absolute beginner.
+Understanding the Basic Goal of the Game +
In every round of Baccarat, the dealer will place two hands of cards on the table: the "Player" hand and the "Banker" hand.
+
It is crucial to understand that the "Player" hand does not belong to you, and the "Banker" hand does not belong to the casino.
+
Once bets are placed, the dealer deals exactly two cards to the Player hand and two cards to the Banker hand.
+
For example, if a hand is dealt a 7 and an 8, the sum is 15. You drop the "1", making the true value of the hand a 5.
+
The hand with the final score closest to 9 wins the round. It is incredibly simple arithmetic.
+The Third Card Rule (Why You Don't Need to Learn It) +
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.
+
As a player, you make absolutely no decisions regarding drawing cards or standing.
+
Your involvement in the game completely ends the moment you place your chips on the betting circle.
+
Therefore, you can ignore the complex drawing charts completely and simply enjoy the fast-paced action of the game.
+The Mathematics of the Baccarat Bets +
Because you cannot influence the cards, the only "strategy" in Baccarat is making the most mathematically sound bet.
+
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).
+
Therefore, the absolute best, flawless Baccarat strategy is incredibly boring but mathematically perfect: Always bet on the Banker.
+
This discrepancy gives the casino a massive, predatory house edge of 14.36% on the Tie bet.

Baccarat is the ultimate paradox of the [casino](https://009-sidali.kemdiktisaintek.go.id/patfreel13019/syndicate-casino-australia2269/wiki/Leading+Casino+Game+Developers): it looks incredibly sophisticated but is actually the easiest game in the building.
+
Just remember the golden rule: ignore the Tie bet, trust the Banker, and let the dealer handle the complex math.
+
Enjoy the elegance of the game, have fun tracking the massive scoreboards, and watch the nines roll in.
