  3. Set Your Stake and Place Bets - Take your seat at the baccarat table of your choice, set your desired betting amount, and place your bets on the Player, Banker, or even opt for a thrilling Tie.
  4. Receive Your Hand - As anticipation builds, the dealer deals 2 cards to both the Player and the Banker. If the Player's hand total is 5 or less, they'll receive a 3rd card. Meanwhile, the Banker's actions depend on a predefined set of rules.
  5. Compare and Celebrate - With all the cards on the table, the moment of truth arrives. Compare hands, and watch with bated breath as the hand closest to 9 emerges victorious. If Lady Luck shines on you, your winnings will be instantly ready.

Understanding Baccarat Card Values and Scoring

In live baccarat, you're betting on 1 of 2 hands: the Player's or the Banker's. The goal? Simple. Predict which hand will end up with a total value closest to 9 or if they'll tie. 

Now, let's talk card values:

  • Aces count as 1 point.
  • Cards 2 through 9 tally their face value.
  • 10s and face cards (Jacks, Queens, and Kings) are worth 0.

But here's the twist: if the hand's total surpasses 9, you only count the second digit. For instance, if you're dealt a 7 and an 8, your score is 5 (7 + 8 = 15).

At the start, both the player and the banker get 2 cards each. Depending on the initial tally, a 3rd card might come into play for one or both hands, following a set of rules. After the draw, the hand with the highest total takes the cake. 

Now, onto the bets:

  • Player - Bet on the player's hand to win. Payout is 1:1.
  • Banker - Root for the banker's hand to come out on top. Payout is 1:1.
  • Tie - Feeling lucky? Bet that both hands will end up with the same value. Payout is 8:1.

Betting Strategies for Live Baccarat

Baccarat's allure lies in its blend of chance and strategy, making it a thrilling and strategic game. While luck plays a significant role, savvy players know that having a solid betting strategy can tilt the odds in their favour. Here are a few tried-and-true tactics to consider:

The Martingale

This aggressive strategy involves doubling your bet after each loss, aiming to recoup losses with a single win. Best suited for those with nerves of steel.

The Paroli

Looking for a more cautious approach? The Paroli system suggests increasing your bet after each win, aiming to ride winning streaks while limiting losses.

The Fibonacci

Math meets strategy with the Fibonacci sequence. By following a pattern where each number is the sum of the previous 2, this method aims to balance losses and wins over time.

The Labouchere

For those who prefer structure, the Labouchere system offers a more methodical approach. By creating a sequence of numbers representing your target profit, you strategically adjust your bets to gradually cross them off the list.

Navigating the Live Baccarat Online Interface

The Live Casino section, conveniently located next to the Pokies section in the top menu, opens the doors to a world of excitement. Upon entering your desired game, a live video stream of the dealer and the baccarat table instantly immerses you in the gameplay. At the same time, a sleek digital overlay provides all the essential information at your fingertips. 

Simply select your chip size, choose your desired bet area, and let the excitement begin! As the cards are dealt, engage in lively banter with the dealer and fellow players via the chat function, fine-tune your viewing preferences with adjustable video and sound settings, and delve into the depths of game rules and history for a truly immersive experience.

Expert Tips for Playing Live Dealer Baccarat in New Zealand

Here are some expert tips to help you conquer the baccarat tables with finesse and confidence!

Embrace the Banker Bet

Channel your inner strategist and favour the banker bet, boasting the lowest house edge at 1.06%. It's a prudent choice for long-term success and minimising losses.

Sidestep the Tie Temptation

Ignore the allure of high payouts and tread cautiously around the Tie bet. With odds as slim as 9.52%, it's a risky gamble that often leads to disappointment.

Navigate with Clarity

Don’t worry too much about previous hands, number of cards dealt, and other statistics. Ultimately, they can skew perception and divert focus from the task at hand as each round stands independent of past outcomes.

Master Money Management

Establish clear budgets, adhere to win and loss limits, and know when to bow out gracefully to safeguard your funds. By prioritising responsible play, you'll ensure a sustainable gaming experience.
