Baccarat - The Deal & Drawing Cards

-The Deal-

Before beginig the first round of play, the first few cards are burned by the dealer. This is done as follows. The top card is dealt out and turned face up. The value of the card determines how many cards will be burned (discarded).

The cards are dealt by the players themselves under the direction of the caller. The dealing shoe travels counterclockwise from player to player. A player who does not wish to deal, can pass the shoe to the player on the right. The dealer must keep dealing as long as the bank hand continues to win. The dealer deals a hand to the caller to represent the player hand and one to himself to represent the bank hand. The two cards dealt to caller constitute the player hand. The player who dealt then turns his two cards face up and tosses them to the caller. These two cards, the ones from under the corner of the shoe, represent the bank hand. He then announces he value of the bank hand.

Depending on the value of both hands, they may be both entitled to one more card. Once both hands have been completed, the caller announces the winning hand, player or bank, and the two dealers take and pay bets.
