It is not a secret that Baccarat variations differ from each other in some way. And in all of them the role of the bank is played differently, by different people, who are in the game. If you play Baccarat Chemin de Fer you will notice that the role of the bank is played by different players. The banker position passes clockwise from player to player every time the banker loses. Throughout the game the player who plays the role of the banker will be provided with funds. If you don’t want to play the role of the banker it will be automatically passed to the next player. The objective of each version of the game is the same: to reach 9. The game starts by the banker dealing four cards to each player and to himself, then each player turns his cards over and sum the value of all cards. A player having a total lower than five will usually draw another card, while a player with a hand greater than 5 will usually stand. The total of the hands is then compared and the player with the best hand (closest to 9) wins.

All players make bets before the start of the game. The players make their bets with chips. The chips are stacked by denomination (, , , 0, 0) at the bottom of the game window. To choose a chip of a necessary amount you have to click left mouse button on this chip. Of you are ready to place the chosen chip n the table you have to click on the bet field. To increase your wager place one chip on the table and then one more. You can place as many chips as you have available without exceeding the maximum limit. Your wager is the sum of all the chips that you have placed on the table. You can see your bet in the ‘Bet’ section. There is a table minimum, which determines your bet amount. If your bet is under the minimum bet amount it will be automatically increased to the minimum limit. Press the deal or Pass button to start. The banker and the player hands will receive 2 cards each. Cards have different value. Face cards and tens are valued as 0. Aces are valued at 1. Numbered cards except tens are worth their face value. The total of the hand is the sum of the value of all cards in the hand. The hand total can’t exceed 9, otherwise 10 has to be subtracted from this total. If you have 8 and 7 (8+7=15 -10=5) the total of your hand is 5. When the first cards are dealt to the player and to the banker they can draw one more card. The player doesn’t ask for a third card. All additional cards are subject to a "Third Card Rule". Neither the banker nor the player can be dealt more than three cards. When two or three cards are dealt the banker’s and the dealer’s total are compared. If the banker’s and the player’s total are equal the hand is called a tie. In the case of tie neither the banker nor the player loses or wins. The total 8 or 9 is called “natural 9”. In the case of a “natural” hand after receiving first two cards no more cards shall be dealt either to the banker or tot the player. If the value of the cards in the Banker's hand on the first two cards is 0 to 7 inclusive, the Player's hand shall draw in accordance with the "Third Card Rules".
