LIVE ACTION PUNTO BANCO IN D1 CASINO DUBLIN
OVERVIEW OF PUNTO BANCO AT D1 CASINO
Punto Banco is an easy contest between the player and the bank. Do you have what it takes to beat the bank?!
Punto Banco is also known as Baccarat. The Dealer draws two cards from a shoe for the Player (Punto), and the Bank (Banco!). The values of the two cards in each hand are added together. The object of the game is to predict, via the trend, which hand will have the highest total. The nearest to 9 is declared the winning hand.
In addition, there are also some fantastic side bets you can take advantage of with higher returns. These are the Tie (Égalité) and Pairs (matching card values on either the Player or the Bank e.g. Bank has a pair of 9′s).
You can NOW also take advantage of betting on the Tie Outcome e.g. both hands tie with a 6. This is our newest addition to the game, please ask our staff for further details.
