Punto Banco, also known as Baccarat, is a classic card-based casino game often featured in live casino sites. The game is incredibly popular in the Dominican Republic, due to its simple rules and minimal barriers to entry. Punto Banco is a game of chance and the objective is to have a hand total that is closer to nine than the banker's hand.
Players have the option to place a bet on the "banker," the "player," or a tie. The dealer then deals out two cards to the player and two cards to the banker. Depending on the initial values of the cards, the player may be required to draw another card. The hand with the higher total value wins, and if a player bets on the winning hand, they are paid out their winnings.
