An Oriental table game of simplicity and style, baccarat is a player favourite at talkSPORT BET that lets you bet on which hand will be closest to nine, the player’s or the banker’s.
Baccarat VZN 1 is an eight-deck no-commission version of baccarat by Playtech Live, with table limits starting at just £1.00 per round.
Toggling the no-commission rule removes the usual 5% commission on winning banker bets, offering better long-term potential returns.
While the main game is straightforward with just three betting options, there are plenty of side bets that you can place, including pairs, big, small, and super six, letting you play for higher payouts.
When you’re ready to join the action, register at talkSPORT BET Casino, make your first deposit, and set your stake for a chance of winning.
First, you’ll need to create an account at talkSPORT BET Casino to play live baccarat for real-money prizes. Register by clicking “Sign Up” and following the prompts.
We suggest you visit our offers page, where you can unlock one of our current promotions for a bankroll boost. You can then deposit to fund your gameplay.
When you’re ready to play, click the Baccarat VZN 1 Live tile to launch the game. Once open, you’ll need to set your wager. The minimum accepted bet in this live game is £1.00 per round.
This is an automated live game, so you won’t be greeted by a live dealer when you join the action. Instead, the cards will be dealt automatically, ensuring fast gameplay between the betting windows.
With your stake set, decide which position to take: player, banker, or tie.
The game will then begin, with two cards given to the player and the banker's hand positions. Third card rules apply in some instances, more on this below.
Card values are then calculated, and the hand closest to nine wins. In baccarat, an ace counts as one, cards two to nine retain their face value, and tens and face cards count as zero.
We encourage you to play baccarat responsibly at talkSPORT BET Casino. This involves setting and sticking to your limits and adjusting your stake accordingly.
