  • Baccarat games are common casino games.
  • the object of baccarat is for thebettor to successfully wager on whether the banker's hand or the player's hand is goingto win.
  • the bettor receives even money for his wager if he selects the winning handand loses his wager if he selects the losing hand.
  • the banker's hand Because of the rules of play of baccarat, the banker's hand has a slightly higher chance of winning than does the player's hand. Therefore, if the bettor wagers on the banker's hand, the bettor is required to pay to the gaming establishment a commission (typically 5%) of the amount the bettor wins. No commission is paid if the bettor successfully wagers on the player's hand.
  • a multiple number of decks of standard playing cards, 52 in number, are used; typically six to twelve decks are shuffled together and placed in a shoe from which the cards are dealt during the play of the game.
  • Each bettor makes a wager on whether the banker's hand or the player's hand will win. After all wagers are made, two cards are dealt from the shoe to the bank position and two cards are dealt from the shoe to the player's position on the table layout. The cards are turned face up and the value of the banker's hand and the player's hand is determined.
  • the suits (hearts, diamonds, spades and clubs) have no meaning in baccarat.
  • the highest hand value in baccarat is nine. All hand values range from a low of zero to a high of nine. If when the cards are added together, the total of the hand exceeds nine, then the hand value is determined by subtracting ten from the total of the hand. For example, a seven and nine total sixteen, but the hand value is six. An Ace and a nine total ten, but the hand value is zero.
  • a two card total of eight or nine is called a "natural"; a two card total of zero is called a "baccarat”.
  • a third card will be dealt. The value of this third card is added to the total of the first two cards and a new hand value is established. Again, if the new hand total exceeds nine, the hand value is determined by subtracting ten from the total of the hand. Wagering locations are provided on the baccarat table layout. Whichever of the banker's hand or the player's hand is closest to a total of nine is the winner.
  • the way of betting may differ in different gaming establishments. In the
  • each bettor can make one of three wagers: 1) that the banker's hand will win, 2) that the player's hand will win, or 3) that the banker's hand and the player's hand will tie.
  • Macau are paid off at odds of one-to-one and the house charges a five percent (5%) commission on the amount won by the bettor. For example, if a bettor wagers $100 on the banker's hand and the banker's hand wins, the bettor wins $100 and is charged a $5 commission on the amount that the bettor won. The bettor is not charged any commission on the amount of his wager.
  • All winning wagers on the tie in scenario 3) in both the U.S. and Macau can be paid off at odds of eight-to-one (depending on the gaming establishment) and the bettor is not charged any commission on the amount of his winnings or his wager. If a tie hand occurs, all wagers on the banker's hand and all wagers on the player's hand are "pushes" and the amount wagered is returned to the bettor.
  • All winning wagers on the Bank Pair bet in scenario 4) in Macau can be paid off at odds of eleven-to-one (depending on the gaming establishment) and the bettor is not charged any commission on the amount of his winnings or his wager.
  • All winning wagers on the Player Pair bet in scenario 5) in Macau can be paid off at odds of eight-to-one (depending on the gaming establishment) and the bettor is not charged any commission on the amount of his winnings or his wager.
  • the play of baccarat typically uses three casino dealers to operate the game.
  • the casino dealers jointly participate in the shuffling of the decks of cards. After the shuffle is completed, one of the players is typically asked to cut the decks using a plastic cut card. The dealer then separates and restacks the cards from the point of the cut and the dealer or a player then inserts the plastic cut card no less than fifteen cards (in Las Vegas, U.S.) or no less than twelve cards (in Macau) from the ends of the stacked decks and the entire stacked decks are placed into a shoe from which the cards are dealt during the play of the game. When the inserted plastic cut card appears during play, the hand in progress is completed and that round of play then ends. The cards are reshuffled to prepare for the next round of baccarat.
  • the bettors deal the cards used in the game. Initially, one of the casino dealers (called the “caller") passes the shoe to the bettor sitting in seat number "1 " at the baccarat table. After all wagers have been made, the caller tells the bettor with the shoe to begin the deal. The bettor deals a first card to the caller, a first card to himself, a second card to the caller and a second card to himself. All cards are dealt face down. The two cards given to the caller represent the player's hand and the two cards kept by the bettor who is dealing the cards represent the banker's hand.
  • the caller than allows one of the other bettors to turn up the player's hand. Traditionally, this honor is given to the bettor who has made the largest wager. The bettor turns up the two cards of the player's hand and tosses them to the caller. The caller places these two cards face up in the table location designated for the "player's hand" and the caller announces the point total of the player's hand.
  • the bettor who has the shoe then turns over the cards of the banker's hand and tosses these two cards to the caller.
  • the caller places these two cards face up in the table location designated for the "banker's hand" and the caller announces to point total of the banker's hand.
  • one more card may be dealt to either the player's hand, the banker's hand, or both.
  • the rules for determining whether a third card is dealt are fixed rules,there is no discretion for either the player's hand or the banker's hand on whether a third card is dealt.
  • Rule #1 If the initial two card player's hand has a point total of 0, 1, 2, 3, 4 or 5, draws a third card. If the initial two card player's hand has a point total of 6 or 7, the player's hand stands and does not receive a third card.
  • Rule # 2 If the player's hand stands and does not draw a third card, then the banker's hand follows Rule #1. In other words, if the player's hand has a point total of 6 or 7, the banker's hand draws a third card on a point total of 0, 1, 2, 3, 4 or 5 and the banker's hand stands on a point total of 6 or 7.

  • the results bar 1580 shows the results for another table, which may be for the table that is currently being played, which is why it appears larger and has a larger number results from past games played.
  • the player may switch between games by touching the results bar that corresponds to the table they want to play at. This allows for significantly reduced down time. During any period of inactivity (for example during dealing, or waiting for bets to be placed at one table) the player can switch to another table quickly and easily and virtually play at that table. This increases the play for the player, adding to a sense of excitement. For the casinos, it is also highly profitable. Table games require dealers and the number of places are limited by gaming regulations and the physical space around a table. The gaming system of the present invention allows more players to play at the tables, as they are not physically at the table. There may be another second additional portion of the screen in the main cabinet for playing a casino slot machine game 1600, as shown in Figure 13C. It should be understood Figure 13A, 13B and 13C are each separate portions of a screen. They may be within one screen as portions within one screen, or within separate screens viewable to a player (for example as shown in Fig. 5).
