Rules for playing Baccarat
The main idea of Baccarat is to get 9 points
or a result close to it. The general sum of points can be counted proceeding
from the value of cards.

You should make some calculations if the total sum of your points is 10 or more: the sum of points 10 points = the
remainder (the result of a round) .
To start playing Baccarat you need
to make a bet. There are three fields on which you can make bets: banker,
player & tie.
You can bet on two fields at the same time, for example on banker and
tie or player and tie
After that the player & the banker are
dealt two cards.
When the player or the banker
has either 8 or 9 points, it will be called Natural 8 or Natural
9. The Natural 9 is the best result and cant be beaten. The Natural
8 can only be beaten by Natural 9. If one of the players has Natural
8 or Natural 9, he wins.

cases:
