Progressive Baccarat Card Games
This is same as the standard Baccarat it’s just an addition
of chances to win a progressive jackpot.
12BET Casino offers seven decks
Baccarat. Read the Baccarat Rules if you’re not familiar with it.
PROGRESSIVE BACARRAT RULES
The object of baccarat is to obtain a hand with a point
total closest to 9. Aces count as one; 2 through 9 as their face value; tens
and picture cards count as zero. If the value of the hand is a two-digit
number, ignore the first digit. The last digit is the baccarat point value of
the hand. For example: 7+6=13=3 and 4+6=10=0
Place your wager on the banker's hand and/or on the player's
hand and/or on a tie. The player and the banker are then each dealt a two-card
hand. In certain cases, a third card is dealt to the player or the banker or
both (Third Card Rules). Cards are dealt from a shoe that holds 6 decks of
cards. The decks are shuffled each round.
The player closest to 9, wins.
If you bet on the player and the player wins, you are paid 2
for 1 winnings on your bet.
If you bet on the banker and the banker wins, you are paid 2
for 1 minus 5% bank commission (vigorish).
If both the player's hand and the banker's hand have equal
totals, the game result is a "tie". If you have placed a bet on the "tie"
field, your payoff is 9 for 1. Non-tie bets are returned to you if a tie
occurs.

TO PLAY THE GAME
Click on a chip of desired value to select it. Then move
your cursor to the middle of the screen and click on any of the three areas on
the table (Player, Banker or Tie) to place your bet there.
Every click on the area adds one chip to the bet. Select
another chip if you wish to increase the bet by some other amount. Right
clicking on the area removes one chip. You can place several chips into several
areas at the same time.
Click on the slot below the Player bet area to place a side
bet for the progressive jackpot.
The game includes the Player Pair, Banker Pair, Perfect
Pair, Either Pair, Big and Small side bets . For rules, see the Side Bets
section below.
Click the Deal button.
Cards are now dealt and you will see the game result. Click
New Game if you wish to play again. Place your bets as described above and
click Deal. You can also click Rebet to place the same bet as in the previous
round.
At the top of the screen is the progressive jackpot ticker.
It shows the jackpot amount that you can win on your current side bet. If you
were playing for less than the maximum side bet amount, you get part of the
jackpot fund (in the proportion of your side bet to the maximum side bet).
Below the ticker is the jackpot paytable button – click it
to open the paytable, click again to close it. Each listed combination shows
the payout, which is multiplied by your progressive bet to determine the win
amount. The top combination wins the amount shown on the ticker.
SIDE BETS
A side bet is a wager you can make beyond the regular game
bets on Player, Banker or Tie. The following is a description of the available
side bets:
PLAYER PAIR / BUNKER PAIR / EITHER PAIR / PERFECT PAIR / BIG
/ SMALL
The side bet rules are the following:
The Player Pair, Banker Pair side bets win according to the
payout table if the first two cards dealt to the respective hand form any pair
on that hand, for example a 5 of Spades and a 5 of Diamonds.
The Either Pair side bet wins according to the payout table
if the first two cards on either the Banker or the Player hand (or both) form
any pair on that hand.
The Perfect Pair side bet wins according to the payout table
if the first two Player or Banker cards form a pair of the same suit, for
example a pair of 7 of Diamonds.
The Big side bet wins according to the payout table if the
total number of cards dealt between Player and Banker is 5 or 6.
The Small side bet wins according to the payout table if the
total number of cards dealt between Player and Banker is 4.
The side bet is not associated with the regular game bets.
You can wager a regular game bet on the Player position but a side bet on the
Banker Pair, and vice versa.
You can also place side bets without placing any regular
bets.
JACKPOT
One of the possible wins in this game is the progressive
Jackpot. A small percentage of each bet, by every person playing this game in
each of many online casinos, is added to a common pot. When a player gets the
right result, that player wins the entire Jackpot (in some games you can also
win part of it).
After a Jackpot has been won, a new pot is started, with the
casinos contributing a base amount of money (called a seed). This ensures that
even if you get a Jackpot result in a game right after someone else has won the
Jackpot, you will still get a large win.
Each game has its own Jackpot, built up by all the casinos
that offer the game.
PLEASE NOTE
In some games you have to make a specific bet to be eligible
for the Jackpot.
If you get disconnected in the middle of a game round, your
game does not change the value of the Jackpot. The state of the game up to that
point is remembered by the casino; the next time you log in you can finish your
game round with the same odds and without placing a new bet.
If a Jackpot is being discontinued (a game is closed and
removed from the casino client), you will be notified of it by the casino.
