Baccarat, known as "Pusoy Dos" in the Philippines, is a classic and thrilling card game that has been enjoyed by players around the world for centuries. It originated in Italy during the 15th century and quickly gained popularity among French nobility before spreading to other parts of Europe. Today, it has become one of the most popular casino games both online and offline.
In Baccarat, you compete against the dealer rather than other players. The objective is simple: you need to predict which hand will have a total value closest to nine – yours or the dealer's. The game uses a standard deck of 52 cards, with each card assigned a specific point value. Cards from two to nine are worth their face value, while tens and face cards carry no point value. Aces are counted as one point.
