Always 8 Baccarat

Always 8 Baccarat, developed by Evolution, is a live baccarat variant that adds an interesting twist: the first card dealt to the Banker is always an 8, which is revealed face up on the table before any other cards are dealt. Players can place bets on the Player, Banker, or a Tie, following the standard baccarat rules, including those for the third card. The betting structure has been altered, with a Player win paying out at 1.48:1 due to the disadvantage posed by the Banker’s guaranteed 8, while a Banker win offers a lower payout of 0.62:1. A Tie bet typically pays 9:1. Additionally, side bets like Player Pair and Banker Pair are available, allowing wagers on two matching cards in the initial two cards of either hand; however, a Banker Pair can only occur if the second card is also an 8. The game employs eight standard decks that are continuously shuffled using a machineshuffle. The live dealer experience is broadcast in HD quality, designed for both desktop and mobile users. Always 8 Baccarat features an elegant and professional theme, consistent with many of Evolution's live casino offerings, showcasing understated tables, a polished presentation, and an intuitive user interface. Notably, there are no extra bonus rounds, free spins, or multipliers; the unique aspect of this game is the fixed 8 rule along with the modified payouts and side bets.
