Baccarat is a popular card game often found in casinos. The game is played between two hands: the \“Player\“ and the \“Banker\“. Your goal as a bettor is to predict which hand will have a total value closest to 9. 
To start, you place a bet on either the Player\“s hand, the Banker\“s hand, or a Tie. Cards 2 through 9 are worth their face value. Aces are worth 1 point, and 10s, Jacks, Queens, and Kings are worth 0 points. If the total value of a hand exceeds 9, only the last digit of the total is considered. For example, a hand with a 7 and an 8 （totaling 15） is worth 5 points.
The dealer deals two cards each to the Player and Banker. Based on specific rules, a third card may be drawn for one or both hands. The hand with the total closest to 9 wins. If you bet on the winning hand, you are paid accordingly. Betting on the Banker usually comes with a commission, typically 5%. |
