Live Casino Baccarat

Baccarat is one of the most popular casino games on the planet and it’s enjoying a revival thanks to the surge in demand for live casino. While it may be viewed as a relatively new inclusion in casinos’ live games catalogue, baccarat has a fascinating history that dates back around 500 years. The origins of baccarat are fiercely debated. Some gaming historians believe the game originated in France, while the majority believe that baccarat comes from Italy. Felix Falguiere is credited as first conceiving the game in the 1400s. The name gets its name from the Italian for zero, baccara. The name stuck due to all face cards and tens having a value of zero. Baccarat quickly gained popularity in France and this is where the game became known as chemin de fer, later shortened to chemmy. King Charles VIII of France was an avid chemmy player and soon introduced it to fellow aristocrats, the game’s main draw at the time being a chance to beat the king at chemmy. Baccarat remained popular for centuries to come. It wasn’t long before the game travelled across the channel and arrived in England. Now perceived as an everyman game, baccarat was no longer just for elite gambling circles. James Bond creator, Ian Fleming was reportedly a fan and this further galvanized baccarat’s popularity. Today, live baccarat is enjoyed in land-based casinos and online baccarat is widely played in virtual casinos globally.

The Best Baccarat Games at Unibet

The Unibet live casino lobby is bursting at the seams with different baccarat games to play. If you believe that the baccarat card game’s evolution was complete, think again. Baccarat live casino games at Unibet currently total over 60, and more games are added all the time. 

If you’re looking for double the fun, drop in on Dragon Tiger. Often pitched as a two-card version of baccarat, Double Tiger combines fun and simplicity. Gameplay is simple: one card is dealt - the Dragon - and players wager on the outcome of the next card, the Tiger. Bets of higher, lower, and tie can be placed, with offsuit tie bets paying out 11:1, and suited tie bets 50:1. 

While No Commision Baccarat may not have a fancy name like Dragon Tiger, the game is nonetheless a complete hoot. Scrapping that annoying Banker vig of 5%, the only time you’re going to be squeezed for commission is when the banker draws a 6. In this scenario, players are paid out 1:2. Players can amp up the excitement with a Super 6 Insurance bet, paying out at 15:1 of your wager.

Players looking for baccarat with added intensity could do much worse than cracking open Speed Baccarat from Evolution Gaming. Dealt in a mega speedy style, your live dealer’s hands are often a blur, the streaming capabilities unable to keep up. The average betting round in standard baccarat lasts 48 seconds but in Speed Baccarat, you get paid out in 27 seconds. 

Can’t choose between craps and baccarat? Then don’t - Bac Bo is a hybrid game where baccarat gets the dice treatment and can see you bag wins of 88:1 for tie bets. Set in a studio fit for an emperor, this could very well be your next game of fortuity. 

Evolution Gaming further creates gaming mayhem with No Commission Speed Baccarat - a combination of two baccarat variants that bring together faster play and boosted wins. What’s not to love?

 

Baccarat Strategy

Baccarat’s a game of chance, so there’s no real gameplay strategy to be found here. Instead, players are advised to employ a betting technique. While not a 100% foolproof strategy, it will help you focus on how you’re playing, and also support you with bankroll management. 

The martingale strategy is often applied to roulette - and playing outside bets specifically - but this can also be used when wagering on baccarat, or any game of chance where you’re 50/50 odds, or close enough. 

The martingale system was developed in Russia and has existed for close to 200 years, first gaining popularity in France’s elite aristocratic casino circles. The premise of the martingale system is simple - every time you lose, you double the amount wagered on the next betting round. 

Martingales are mathematically solid but based on a long-term maths model, and you shouldn’t expect results within a short time frame. If you like things a bit topsy-turvy, you could always employ a reverse martingale - by doubling your bet on every win, rather than on every loss. 

Whichever way you decide to play baccarat, always make sure that you’re gambling within your means. While the martingale technique may assist you in tracking your loss-win ratio, it’s no substitute for a bit of common sense and caution when you gamble.
