Baccarat on Joker123: A Walk Through the Table, Step by Step

The Baccarat table in the Joker123 lobby is a plain RNG game: no live dealer, no other players, just you, a green felt and a shoe that the software shuffles. That makes it quick. A hand takes as long as it takes you to press two buttons, which is both the appeal and the thing to watch.

This page follows one hand from the first screen to the payout.

Step 1: pick a table limit

Opening the game gives you a SELECT BET SETTINGS box with three ranges: 1 to 250, 10 to 1,000 and 20 to 2,000. The range you choose shows up in the MAX and MIN tags in the top-left corner of the table. On a small RM budget the 1 to 250 table is the one to use, since it lets you bet as little as 1 unit per hand.

Step 2: read the layout

The two big boxes are 闲 PLAYER on the left and 庄 BANKER on the right. Between them sits a banner reading TIE 9 FOR 1 and a six-box grid of side bets:

• Player Pair and Banker Pair, 11:1 (the first two cards of that side are a pair)
• Perfect Pair, 25:1, and Either Pair, 5:1
• Big, 0.54:1, and Small, 1.5:1

A HISTORY panel down the right edge fills with coloured dots as you play.

Step 3: place chips and deal

The UNIT button sets the chip size. Tap a box to put chips on it, use REMOVE BET or CLEAR if you change your mind, and TOTAL PLAY shows the stake. Then press DEAL.

Step 4: squeeze or show

This is the bit that separates it from a bare-bones table. After the deal, one card is pulled up large with red arrows around the edges: you can drag a corner to peel it open like a squeeze at a real table, or hit SHOW CARD to flip everything at once. A small timer counts down while you decide.

Step 5: the result

Cards count at face value from 2 to 9, aces count as 1, and tens and picture cards count as zero. Only the last digit of the total matters, so 7 + 3 + 5 is 5. A natural 8 or 9 on the first two cards ends the hand. Otherwise Player draws on 0 to 5 and stands on 6 or 7, and Banker follows the drawing chart shown on the rules page. In the hand above Player finished on 5, Banker on 1, and six cards were used, so both Player and Big won.

The rules page and payouts

The Rewards Chart lists Player 1 to 1, Banker 0.95 to 1, Tie 9 to 1 and the side bets at the same odds as the table. Note that the felt says "9 for 1" while the chart says "9 to 1", which are not the same return, so check a Tie payout in the WIN box before you rely on it.

Player and Banker are the lowest-edge bets here. The pair, Perfect Pair and Tie bets pay more because they win far less often. No pattern in the history panel changes the odds of the next hand.
