Baccarat pt3 — Live Dealer Tables for Malaysian Players
This page covers how to play Baccarat at pt3, the table types available, how to access the game on your smartphone, and payment information in MYR. Everything you need to know before you start playing is right here.
What exactly is Baccarat?
Baccarat is a card game with European origins that has become one of the top choices at Asian casinos, including among Malaysian players. The core concept is straightforward: you bet on whether the Player hand, the Banker hand, or neither will win by having a value closest to 9.
Part of what makes Baccarat so popular is its competitive return rate compared to many other table games, and the fact that it requires no complex strategy. New players can get comfortable with the betting in very little time. At pt3, you can access Baccarat tables directly from your phone — no additional software to install.
Each round begins when the live dealer deals two cards to the Player hand and two cards to the Banker hand. 10s and face cards count as zero; Aces count as one; all other cards are taken at face value. If the total exceeds nine, only the last digit counts — for example, 15 becomes 5.
What betting options are available in a round of Baccarat?
Each round offers three main betting options — understand the difference before you place your bet.
You are backing the Player to win. The payout is 1:1 — a winning RM10 bet returns RM20 in total. No commission is charged on this bet.
Backing the Banker to win. Pays 1:1, but a small commission (typically 5%) is taken from winnings. Statistically, the Banker bet carries a slight edge over the Player.
Betting that both sides end with the same value. Pays higher (typically 8:1), but a tie is statistically unlikely. A good option for players who want variety in their betting strategy.
Common Baccarat variants found on online platforms
Baccarat Punto Banco
The most widely used variant in Asian casinos. Third-card rules are applied automatically — players don't need to make any decisions about additional cards. Your only focus is choosing your bet.
Mini Baccarat
A smaller table with lower minimum bets, ideal for new players or those who prefer more modest wagers. Game pace is also faster compared to the main table.
Baccarat Squeeze
The dealer slowly reveals the cards using the "squeeze" technique — bending the card corners before showing the full value. This adds drama and suspense, and is popular among players who want a more authentic casino feel.
VIP Baccarat Table
Tables with higher betting limits, suited for players looking to wager larger amounts. A more exclusive atmosphere with fewer players per table.
