Baccarat Variations
European Baccarat has two key differences in rules as compared to American Baccarat:
- The player has the option of standing or drawing on 5
- The banker (controlled by dealer) also has an option on whether to draw a third card, although in practice the casino generally follows the rules of play for American baccarat
The casino finances the banker's hand:
- The Banker funds $1,500. If a player bets $1,000 and
the second player bets $500, the next players are not allowed to bet anymore
When a player wants to
cover the entire banker's bet, he calls out "banco";
and no other players are allowed to bet during that round.
Players who choose to bet
with the bank to win are charged the same 4 or 5 percent of their winnings,
like in any other version of baccarat.
