The very name Baccarat conjures images of secret agent James Bond, of a glamorous world of gentlemen in tuxedoes and ladies in evening gowns, of flowing champagne and sparkling jewels. This is the glamour of the baccarat casino, and you can live it too when you play baccarat online at All Jackpots Casino.

There are two hands in a baccarat game, known as the Player and the Banker. But don't think of yourself as the Player or of the online casino as the Banker. Just think of them as two hands, and you are free to bet on either one of them, or to bet on a Tie.

Each of the two hands is dealt two or three cards, and the hand with the highest value wins. But the value of a hand is determined solely by the final digit of the hand's total points. So if the cards in one hand add up to 18, the hand has a value of 8. If the cards in the other hand add up to 21, the hand has a value of 1.

If you bet on the Player's hand or the Banker's hand, and the hand you bet on ends up with the higher value, you win your baccarat bet and a payout. If the hands tie, you get your bet back with nothing lost.

If you bet on a Tie and the hands tie, you win an 8-to-1 payout on your bet. That's the biggest jackpot you can win in baccarat.

For all its glamour and mystique, baccarat is actually a very simple game to play, but it is always fun and exciting to place your bets at the virtual baccarat table. And all you have to do to share in the excitement is to download the All Jackpots casino software, collect your Welcome Bonus, and play baccarat online for real money or just for fun.
