If you’re new to playing baccarat, the game rules are easy to follow. Watch a few rounds before playing, and you’ll soon grasp the rules. Your objective is to guess which of the two positions, player and banker, you believe will win each game round and to bet accordingly.

A winning hand is one with a total value closest to 9 points. Hand values are determined as follows:

• Ace = 1 point
• 1 – 9 = their face value
• 10 and picture cards = 0 points

In baccarat, only a card’s ranking is counted, and its suit is irrelevant.

Before the cards are dealt, select a casino chip suited to your desired bet size and place it on the virtual table, either on the player, banker or in the middle if you wish to bet on a draw. You can also choose to place one or both of the two side bets.

Once betting has closed, the special Lightning Round begins, determining which cards will be special Lightning Cards carrying multiplier values that can boost your wins.

After the cards are drawn, the dealer will deal out two cards each to the player and banker positions face up, starting with the player. The card values are then summed up to determine each hand value. If the total exceeds 9 points, then only the second digit is counted.

For example, if the player’s hand contains two sevens, the total is 14, which means the player’s hand value is 4 points.

Payouts in XXXtreme Lightning Baccarat depend on the type of bet placed as follows:

In addition to regular baccarat gameplay, this thrilling game includes side betting options, plus the namesake XXXtreme Lightning Round, where multipliers up to 10x per card are possible.

XXXtreme Lightning Round

The Lightning Round begins once all players have placed their bets and the allocated betting times closes. In each round, between four and eight random Lightning Cards are chosen from a virtual 52-card deck. Each card receives a multiplier value of either 2x, 3x, 4x, 5x, 8x, or 10x.

If you win the round with a hand containing one or more of these Lighting Cards, your winnings are multiplied by the cards’ multiplier values. If more than one Lightning Card is in your hand, their values are multiplied, leading to win potential up to 2,850,000x on a winning tied hand with six Lightning Cards.

Side Bets

In addition to the main bet, there are two side bets you can play in this game, Player Pair and Banker Pair, which pay out as follows:

• Player Pair: Pays if the first two cards dealt to the player position constitute a pair.
• Banker Pair: Pays if the first two cards dealt to the banker position constitute a pair.
