Live Baccarat Bonanza — Real Dealers, Real Action

The Banker bet backs the dealer hand to score closer to nine. It carries a small commission on wins — typically five percent — because it has a marginally higher probability of winning than the Player bet.

A Natural is when the initial two-card total is eight or nine. No third card is drawn, the round settles immediately, and Natural hands are often linked to enhanced Bonanza side-bet payouts.

A Tie bet wins when both the Player and Banker hands finish on the same total. It pays at higher odds than the main bets, but it resolves less frequently across a standard dealing shoe.

Bonanza side bets are optional wagers placed before the deal on specific outcomes — such as a suited pair or a perfect pair — that pay separately from the main Player and Banker result.

A shoe is the dealing device that holds multiple decks of cards. Live Baccarat Bonanza typically uses six or eight decks per shoe, and a new shuffle begins when the cut card appears.

RTP stands for Return to Player — the theoretical percentage of wagered amount returned over many rounds. We show this figure only when the studio provider publishes it for a specific Bonanza table variant.
