Baccarat Deluxe

Baccarat Deluxe is PG Soft's version of the classic baccarat game, where it maintains the standard Player, Banker and Tie structure, but adds the studio's own set of side bets. For those who wish to play baccarat with a few additional betting options, it is available on OKGames.

Baccarat Deluxe plays according to the normal rules of baccarat, with the exception of the side bets.

What Is Baccarat Deluxe?

Baccarat Deluxe is played in the same way as baccarat: Player and Banker hands are dealt and compared and bets are placed on which hand will be closer to nine or on a tie.

What's new in PG Soft:

• A side bet that is associated with a hand or a pair.
• The side bets have their own payoffs that are distinct from the Player/Banker/Tie odds.
• Side bets are not substitutes for a regular baccarat bet, but are placed in addition to the standard bet.

Baccarat has been a staple of Asian casino markets for decades and providers such as PG Soft often create their own side-bet layer on top of the standard rules, to provide greater betting variety without altering the core gameplay.

The rules of the game are set and never left to player discretion, which makes baccarat more popular among those who would rather play a table game and don't want to learn a card ranking system or a strategy chart first.

Both Evolution's Speed Baccarat and Lightning Baccarat have a Player/Banker/Tie structure and are played at their own speed, both live on OKGames, and check our live-casino guide, which explains the difference between a live-dealer table and an RNG based game like this one. Other baccarat-style tables on the site include ONLIVE's Sexy Baccarat and Pragmatic Play's Baccarat 1.

How to Play Baccarat Deluxe?

A hand of Baccarat Deluxe is played in the same way as standard baccarat, except that side bets are played at the same time:

1. Place a bet on Player, Banker, Tie and optionally add any of PG Soft's side bets for that hand.
2. Player and Banker are dealt two cards.
3. The tens digit of the total of the two cards is dropped to form the point total.
4. A third card is dealt for either side automatically, depending on predetermined drawing conditions based on the two-card totals.
5. The hand with the higher total (closer to nine) wins the base bet, and any side bets are won independently of the base bet, depending on the cards dealt.

Side bets are separate from the Player/Banker/Tie bet and thus it is possible to win a side bet while losing the Player/Banker/Tie bet, or to lose a side bet while winning the Player/Banker/Tie bet.

Where Can You Play Baccarat Deluxe?

Baccarat Deluxe can be found in PG Soft's game library on OKGames, which also features PG Soft's slot games like Treasures of Aztec, Wild Bandito, Piñata Wins, and Wild Bounty Showdown.

Log in to your account (or register and verify if you are new), deposit some money from any of the supported Philippine payment methods, and open the table from the PG Soft hub or okcards.

If you need to review the basic Player/Banker/Tie logic before introducing side bets, then OKGames' baccarat strategy guide is for you.

Payment options on OKGames are usually the common e-wallets and bank transfers that are found on online platforms in the Philippines; it's best to confirm the payment method you want to use is active on your account before your first session so you won't experience delays once you're ready to play for real money.

What Are PG Soft's Baccarat Deluxe Table Features?

The baccarat games by PG Soft are usually displayed in a neat, card-based format, with side-bets available around the main betting area.

This allows you to easily place or avoid additional bets on every round without slowing down the game, and the table is identical on both desktop and mobile browsers.

Often a scoreboard or result history is displayed next to the table, allowing players to see the results of recent hands without having to count them.

A complete list of OKGames' game providers can be found on the providers page, and the list of current sign-up and deposit offers can be found on the promotions page.

What Are the Best Tips for Playing Baccarat Deluxe?

The best long run value on this table is the base Player and Banker bets, with the side bets providing the variance on top:

• For the small long-run advantage they have when the standard commission is applied, lean on Banker bets.
• Side bets are usually a higher house edge and should be used as a side bet and not as a main betting strategy.
• Before adding a side-bet, consult the payout table as the amount you win depends on the combination you are wagering on.
• Establish a session budget that is in addition to your base Player/Banker/Tie stake.
• Do not make several side bets on each play — it does not increase your chances but several small house-edge costs.
• A simple running count of hands played, not just memory, will help you to adhere to a planned session length.
• When comparing results to your original budget, and not to any particular hand, this keeps decisions in the big picture.

What Mistakes Should You Avoid When Playing Baccarat Deluxe?

• The most frequent error that players make with Baccarat Deluxe is that they consider side bets as their main strategy rather than an occasional add-on:
• Playing all the side bets on all the hands, not just the good ones.
• Side bet win is assumed to be Player/Banker/Tie bet win, if they settle independently.
• Comparing potential base-game payouts without taking the Banker commission into account.
• Not reading the side-bet payout table before betting, thus not knowing what the actual odds are when betting.
• Alternating between Player and Banker hand on a whim and not a strategy.
• Misunderstanding that variance over a small sample is normal even on a fair table and judging a table's fairness from a short losing streak.

Is Baccarat Deluxe Legit and Safe to Play on OKGames?

It is expected that PG Soft titles on OKGames will be played on independently audited and certified random-number-generation systems.

Additionally, OKGames offers responsible gaming features to those who wish to maintain a specific budget during their gaming sessions.

Before players deposit, they can check the status of a Philippine-facing operator's license with PAGCOR.

It only takes a few minutes to check the licensing information and the responsible-gaming tools available on a platform, and it's a good idea to do so before you make your first deposit on any platform, not just OKGames.
