How to Play Baccarat (Microgaming)

It is baccarat against casino, played with 8 standard decks of 52 cards without jokers. Land-based casinos deal the cards from the shoe and store played cards in the discard rack. Here, all decks are fully used in each deal.

Goal of the game is to guess who wins: the banker or the player.

It means the player has to stake on one party. He can also bet on the tie game and place side bets.

You can stake from as little as 5 to as much as 500 dollars on one hand.

It is important to understand that the customer is not obliged to stake on the player and doesn't have to associate himself with it.

The dealer deals the cards by the basic baccarat rules. If you don't know how to score and win, please read our article by the link.

If the user has guessed the winner, he's getting paid:

  1. Banker bet – 1:1 (5% fee);
  2. Player bet – 1:1;
  3. Tie bet – 8:1.

The banker bet fee is applied only if the customer wins. Please read about side bets below on Casinoz.

The developers decided to avoid excessive visual effects and stick to classic design instead. 

Bonus games

Switch&Microgaming Baccarat accepts side bets of 2 types:

  1. Player Pair wins when the player has a pair in the first two cards.
  2. Banker Pair pays upon a pair on the banker's hand.

The payoff is 11:1 in both options. This bet plays independently of the basic. You can't stake simultaneously on Payer Pair and Banker Pair.

Free spins

This game features no free rounds of any kind.

Strategy: How to Win

As a reminder, baccarat has different RTP for different bets. The most beneficial is to stake on the banker. Bet on the player will bring a little higher advantage to the casino.

Never stake on the tie – it is the most disadvantageous option.

Side bets are worth learning in each case, as RTP may vary.

Counting cards in Baccarat on RNG makes no sense.

Should You Play for Real Money in New Zealand?

Online baccarat running on a random number generator is not as popular as the game with live dealers or a land-based version. However, this makes us believe in the promising future of online baccarat.
