The introduction of online casinos has undoubtedly affected the concept of what we mean by the term casino games, primarily because of the huge range of slots games available on almost every online casino site. Fortunately the online casinos have also provided us with access to some traditional casino games which up until the advent of online casinos were not available to us in Ireland. One of these traditional casino games is the game of Baccarat. For many of us our knowledge of Baccarat is limited to a famous scene from one of the Bond movies, and that scene was hardly very instructive in terms of how the game is played. In fact Baccarat has somehow gained a reputation for being a complicated casino game played exclusively by high rollers, partly because many European casinos where Baccarat is played seem to place the Baccarat table away from the main floor. In fact nothing could be further from the truth in terms of playing Baccarat at an online casino, because although the rules of Baccarat are a little complicated there is actually no need for us to know the rules to play the game online. For those who are interested in the rules of Baccarat we have detailed them on our casino games pages, but when playing Baccarat at an online casino the dealer is responsible for managing every aspect of the game according to the rules. All we need to do when playing Baccarat is decide which of the only two dealt hands will win. There is a dealer’s hand and a player’s hand, both played by the dealer, and there are only three possible outcomes. Either the player’s hand wins, the dealer’s hand wins or the hands are tied. If you bet on the player’s hand and it wins, the pay-out is usually even money. The dealer’s hand has a slight edge so winning bets are usually even money less 5% at most online casinos. A tie is rare but if you do bet on a tie and it is a winning bet the pay-out is 8/1 or 9/1 depending on the online casino. Baccarat is a simple online casino game so why not give it a go.
