Baccarat is one of the most popular casino games in the world, but many people are not sure what it involves. By briefly covering the game's history and gameplay, we'll demonstrate that this is a simple, exciting card game that anyone can play with confidence.

Background introduction
Opinions vary about where and when the game was first played. The most common view is that it originated in Italy in the 15th century, and its name comes from the Italian meaning zero, because the card face is worth zero.
Some sources claim that Felix Falguiere was the man who created Baccarat, but we know very little about him right now. Currently, it is often described as the number one casino game, mainly because of its huge popularity in Macau.
In the US and Europe, it has traditionally been seen as a high-stakes exclusive game. However, switching to online casinos has opened the door to many new players who have never played before.

Basic rules
Baccarat is a simple game of chance where you choose whether you think the player or the banker will win. You can also choose to bet on a draw between them.
Each hand is dealt an initial set of two cards. Add the totals of each card to the closest 9 wins, although a third card can be drawn depending on the rules of the version you're playing.
It is considered one of the best casino games in terms of low house edge, which means you should expect to win regularly. Some versions also have side bets, such as the roulette under the jiliko gaming platform, with lower chances of winning, but bigger prizes and a lot of bonus content for players to use.

Different versions
When you look for Baccarat online, you'll see that most versions are simply called "Baccarat" or some variation, such as "Live Baccarat" or "Classic Baccarat". However, there are actually three main versions of the game, punto banco, chemin de fer, and baccarat banque.
Almost all online games of baccarat are based on punto banco, which is called American baccarat due to its popularity in the United States. Every game you try on the internet should have a rules or information page where you can find all the information about playing that game.
Other casino games use a similar method to baccarat. Dragon Tiger, for example, is a simpler game where one card is dealt per hand and the highest value wins. The introduction of live baccarat added a different way to play, allowing you to play with a live dealer rather than at a computer-generated table.

How to get started
It's easy to start playing baccarat online. First, you need to look for an online casino that is regulated by the authorities where you live.
For example, you can check out jiliko's live dealer baccarat. You can then sign up and fund your account through them. Head to their lobby for table games, card games or live dealer games. In some cases, you may see a baccarat category, while in other cases you can simply check the game listing to see which versions are included.
After selecting a game, you can choose the amount of bet you want to play, then place your chips in the table section associated with the bet you want to place. Usually, there are clearly marked "Player", "Banker" and "Tie" sections on the table where you can place your chips.
