Baccarat For Christmas Season

Baccarat is a fun online casino game. Before you start to play baccarat at any online casino site it is worth your time to shop around for games with the fewest number of decks as this improves your odds. Microgaming casinos offer single deck baccarat. However only the most serious players play single deck games so beginners may want to start with games using 8 decks.



The game is traditionally played at an oval table and usually 6-8 decks of playing cards are used. Each player and the banker receive 2 cards; bets are then placed on the player’s hand, another players hand or on the banks hand. The goal is to get a score of 8 or 9. Face cards and tens are worth zero points, two through 9 are worth face value, and Aces are one point. If the player has 8 or 9 on the first deal they do not take any more cards. If the player beats or ties the bank then he wins.

Baccarats popularity can be attributed in part to the attention it gained from James Bond novels and movies. As it is 007’s favored card game, at some point in many of the scenes in the novels and movies the game is being played. In fact in the 1953 Casino Royale novel the entire plot revolves around the game between 007 and one of his most loathed adversaries. Unfortunately in the 2006 rendition of the movie Texas Hold’em was played instead, due to its immense popularity at the time.

The best sites offer Baccarat games for free and they don’t even ask for your email, sites that let you play for free are hoping you like the game enough to decide to play for money. If you choose to play baccarat for money then before depositing it is a good idea to ensure the site has a contact number and free to phone 24 hour support line in case you have any problems. You also need to read the fine print as some sites require proof of identity such as a copy of your driving licence. There is nothing worse than getting ready to play, depositing some money only to find out you have to wait a day for your id to be confirmed.

Reading as much as you can on the site before signing up, check out the websites latest offers or promotions, sometimes you can find special christmas bonus offers. Pick your bonus carefully as there are only a few online casino gambling sites with relatively low play through requirements and allow you to play games with high payout like Baccarat at 99% making the offer worthwhile provided you’re not really unlucky.

Most of these online christmas offers aren’t financially beneficial and just there to encourage players to play more. Bonuses are there to attract new customers and reward loyalty but often have to be earned i.e. depositing at least certain amount of money into your casino, playing often or for a certain amount of time or spend a certain amount of money. For this information the best place to look is on the casino’s terms and conditions page.
