Rules
Baccarat Control Squeeze pretty much follows the traditional baccarat rules. If you happen to be new to the game, then the live dealer in the game will be able to guide you. The objective of the game is to predict which side will be able to get a card hand where the value is 9 or closest to 9.
The two sides are of course the Banker and you, the Player, however you are also able to bet on a Tie if you think the value of both hands will be similar. The face cards like Jack, Queen and King are worth 0 while the number cards will be worth their number value, with Ace being worth 1. The suit of the card is not relevant to the main game.
How To Play
To start the game, you will have to place your bet by simply choosing the betting chips that correspond to the size of bet you wish to place and then drag them over to the side you wish to place your bet on. The live dealer will then continue on to dealing the cards for both sides, face down. You task after the live dealer has dealt the first cards will then be to carry out the squeeze on the cards.
You will see that each card has been obscured by the optical filters added. Here you will simply have to click on the edge of the card to peel back the overlay. Players have 15 seconds to reveal their cards during the game. Whoever is the player closest to 9 will win the game.
Betting Round
There are several different bets for you to place here. These of course include the side bets on the Banker, Either, Player, Player Bonus, Perfect Pair and the Banker Bonus. We can also mention that the best way to keep your losses low, is to avoid the tie bet. While it may pay 8:1 it has the worst odds of the bets.
