Play Online Casino BaccaratPlay Casino Baccarat by Bones McCoyYou can play online casino baccarat at a variety of Internet casinos and it is played in much the same way as it is in the land-based casinos. Baccarat is one of the easiest games for beginners to play; however, it remains a favorite of seasoned gamers as well. When you play online casino baccarat, the dealer is dealt two cards and the player is dealt two cards. The object is to come as close to nine as possible. Sometimes, a third card will be drawn but not always. The cards numbered 2-9 are counted at face value with no regard to suits; the 10, jack, queen, and king have a value of zero and the Ace is counted as 1; again, with no regard to suits. Superior Casino is the World-wide Leader in Online Gaming, home of the Those who play online casino baccarat can either bet on the player's hand, the banker's hand, or that the two hands will tie. Players win when the hand they have bet upon beats the other hand. For example, if you have bet on the player's hand and your two cards are a queen and a seven and the banker's hand is comprised of 2 kings, you will win because the player's hand totals 7 (remember, face cards have no value) and the banker's hand totals 0. If you had instead, wagered on the banker's hand in this example, you would lose. Ties pay handsomely when you play online casino baccarat. At some of the Internet casinos, ties pay 9 to 1, provided, of course, that the two hands are tied and you have bet on the tie. If the hands tie and you haven't bet on the tie, then all of the wagers push. Player's hands pay 1 to 1 and banker's hands typically pay 1 to 1 with an added commission, which is typically around 5%. You can't actually "bust" when you play online casino baccarat because the tens digit is dropped and you will always be left with a one digit value. For example, if you have a 2 and a 3, which, of course, equals 5 and you draw a nine, that would equal 14. However, in this game, the tens digit is dropped so you would then end up with a 4, which is a worse hand than you had before you took the third draw card so there is some interesting strategy in this game to say the least! --- by Bones McCoy at 1800-sports.com on February 27, 2009
