How to play ROYAL BACCARAT

How to play, step by step

1. Open the game page and choose a table. Standard and VIP tables have different limits.
2. Place chips on the bets you want before the countdown ends, then confirm (sign-in required).
3. When betting closes, cards are dealt Player 1 → Banker 1 → Player 2 → Banker 2, then third cards are drawn by the rules.
4. The side whose total is closest to 9 wins, and you are paid on the bets you placed.
5. Every card can be verified against the commitment published in advance.

Visitors who are not signed in get the watch mode: they see the cards and results but cannot bet yet.

Rules

• Card values: A = 1, 2-9 at face value, 10 J Q K = 0. A hand total is the last digit of the sum.
• If Player or Banker has 8 or 9 from the first two cards (a natural), both sides stand.
• Player draws a third card on 0-5 and stands on 6-7.
• If Player stands, Banker draws on 0-5. If Player draws, Banker follows the standard baccarat drawing table.
• A continuous 8-deck shoe with a cut card. The first card of the shoe is turned face up and sets how many cards are burned.
• Card-counting guard: before each hand the system checks the cards already shown. If any bet would turn in the player's favour, that bet is closed for that hand only. The cards are not changed.
• Player and Banker cannot both be bet in the same hand.

Paytable and RTP

Payouts for every bet with its theoretical return (RTP) from a full 8-deck shoe, computed from the real card odds and not counting the Royal Jackpot contribution.

With the NO COMM switch on, a Banker win pays 1:1 but a win on 6 pays half (1:2), theoretical RTP 98.54%. On a tie, Player and Banker bets are returned.

Player and Banker have the highest theoretical RTP: Banker 98.94% and Player 98.76%. The side bets return less, and SUPER LUCKY 7 is only on the live tables.

The RTP of ROYAL BACCARAT differs from the 90% of the other Originals games because standard baccarat rules return more. Every figure in the table comes from the card odds computed in the game code, not from an estimate.

Bet limits

ROYAL BACCARAT has 12 tables: 6 standard and 6 VIP. The default limits of each tier (USDT per bet) are below and can change with the site policy; check the real limits at the table.

Royal Jackpot

Every real-money hand adds to the Royal Jackpot and gets a chance at one of its 4 tiers (MINI, MINOR, MAJOR, GRAND). Player and Banker contribute at a different rate from the side bets, and the chance follows the amount contributed.

Verify a round yourself

Baccarat is verified by locking the cards in advance: when a shoe opens, all 416 cards are shuffled with a seed and each one is locked with a SHA-512 commitment of the text "position:card:salt". When a card is dealt, its salt is revealed so you can check that the SHA-512 of the text matches the commitment published before the first hand.

Round IDs run in sequence with a hash chain. When the shoe ends, its seed is revealed so the order of the whole shoe can be checked afterwards. The general principles are in the fairness guide.
