The dealer sits at a black card table with neon lights and cosmic patterns swirling in the background. The betting table and scorecards are digitally imposed at the bottom. There is a button to switch to no-commission mode just above the scorecard on the right. You can toggle between these two modes, which return different payouts listed below.
During the betting time, a selection of virtual casino chips will appear on screen for you to select your wager and lay it where you wish to bet. You can place multiple bets in one round and of different sizes, but you must complete your betting within the allocated time.
It’s important to note that there is a 20% Quantum Fee on top of your bet. You cannot play without paying this fee.
Once time is over and betting closes, the game will begin, and the cards will be dealt first to the player, then to the Banker. In certain circumstances, the Third Card Rule will come into play to determine if more cards are dealt. Check out the game rules to see the specifics.
The objective of the game is to bet on which position will win the round with a hand value closer to nine. Hand values are determined as follows:
If the total goes over ten, the ten is removed to return to a single-digit hand value. For example, a 6 and a 9 total 15, so the hand value would be five.
Once the hand values have been determined, payouts are awarded as per the pay table. If there is a tie, Player and Banker bets are returned.
With Commission Mode on (normal play), if you bet on the Banker and it wins, you are paid 1:1 minus the 5% bank commission:
| Bet Type | Payout | Quantum Multiplier |
|---|---|---|
| Player | 1:1 | 2-87:1 |
| Banker | 0.95:1 | 2-87:1 |
| Tie | 8:1 | 21-997:1 |
| Player Pair | 11:1 | 21-887:1 |
| Banker Pair | 11:1 | 21-887:1 |
| Either Pair | 5:1 | 10-887:1 |
| Perfect Pairs | 25:1 | 43-887:1 |
| Big | 0.54:1 | 2-87:1 |
| Small | 1.5:1 | 3-87:1 |
If you bet on the Banker and it wins, you are paid 1:1, except for when the Banker wins with a six, then you are paid 0.5:1 on your bet. So if you bet with a £10 chip, your return is £15.
| Outcome | Payout |
|---|---|
| Player | 1:1 |
| Tie | 8:1 |
| Banker win with other than 6 | 1:1 |
| Banker win with a 6 | 0.5:1 |
The 20% Quantum Fee is for the Quantum Feature. After the betting round is over, between one and five betting positions are highlighted on the betting table at the bottom of your screen. These betting positions receive random Quantum Multipliers that are awarded if the bet comes in. Possible Quantum Multipliers for each bet are as follows:
If a betting position with a quantum multiplier wins, you are paid the win multiplier instead of the standard baccarat payout.
A side bet is a bet you can make beyond the main three positions. Side bets are separate from your main bet and can be placed alone or along with the main bet.
