Both the Player and the Banker in Baccarat have the potential to draw additional cards under certain circumstances. The rules for drawing these extra cards are predetermined and follow a set of rules known as the "Third Card Rule." Here's a breakdown of when each side can draw:
Player's Third Card Rule:
If the Player's initial two-card hand has a total value of 0 to 5, the Player must draw an additional card.
Banker's Third Card Rule:
If the Player stands (does not draw a third card), the Banker follows these rules:
If the Banker's hand total is 0 to 2, the Banker draws a third card.
If the Banker's hand total is 3, the Banker draws a third card unless the Player's third card is an 8.
If the Banker's hand total is 4, the Banker draws a third card if the Player's third card is 2 to 7.
If the Banker's hand total is 5, the Banker draws a third card if the Player's third card is 4 to 7.
If the Banker's hand total is 6, the Banker draws a third card if the Player's third card is 6 or 7.
If the Banker's hand total is 7, the Banker stands and does not draw a third card.
