Punto banco is the most common baccarat variant, where the dealer follows fixed third-card rules and players bet on banker, player or tie rather than controlling either hand themselves.

Commission is the five percent fee taken from winning banker bets, reducing the 1:1 payout to 0.95:1. It offsets the banker hand's slight statistical advantage under the drawing rules.

A natural is a two-card total of eight or nine. When either hand opens with a natural, no third card is drawn and the higher natural wins — or the round ties if both are equal.

The shoe is the transparent plastic holder that stores multiple decks of cards. Dealers draw from the shoe during play, shuffle and reload it on camera when the cut card appears, keeping the dealing process visible.

Pair side bets win if the first two cards dealt to banker or player match in rank — for example, two kings or two fives. Pair bets typically pay 11:1 and settle independently of the main hand.

Speed baccarat shortens the betting window and dealing pace, resolving hands in around thirty seconds. The rules and payouts stay identical; only the time between rounds drops to keep action flowing for quick sessions.
