If you are not familiar with the game of baccarat, please first read how to play baccarat and the rules of baccarat.

In the online casinos, Baccarat is the nearest equivalent to a toss-up.
The point of Baccarat is that one should guess in advance that the hand is going to be won by the player or the dealer (i.e., keeping certain rules, who is going to have higher value cards by end of the game).
Only 1% of the bets made both for the player and for the banker is the advantage of the house. This is rarely taken into account when fulfilling play conditions. The reason is not primarily a low house edge but the fact that it is allowed to place the same bet both for the player and the banker and this greatly reduces the standard deviation (most of the cases one of our bets wins and another loses and virtually we run minimal risk).

 

STRATEGY
Since the house edge is lower for bets placed to the dealer, we should simply bet for the dealer. It is that simple.
Once you have made your bet you have nothing else to do than wait for the cards to see if you won or not.

A little math:

HOUSE ADVANTAGE	Deck 1	Deck 4-8
Player	1.29%	kb. -1.24%
Banker	1.61%	kb. -1.06%
Tie	14%	14%

 
 
Deviation of Baccarat is about 0.93 that is lower than deviation of roulette, for example. This is because of frequent ties.
