Baccarat

Baccarat (punto banco) is the high-roller's game of choice because the math is brutally simple: bet Banker (1.06% edge), Player (1.24% edge) or Tie (~14% edge - avoid). The decisions are made for you by fixed drawing rules.

Banker bets pay 0.95:1 to compensate for the 5% commission, which is the source of the small house advantage. Some tables offer no-commission baccarat that pays Banker 1:1 but turns any Banker 6 into a half-win - the effective edge is similar.

Side bets (Dragon Bonus, Perfect Pair) carry significantly higher edges. Most professional baccarat players treat them as variance generators, not value bets.
