The highest total any baccarat hand can have is nine. A two-card total of nine is called a "natural" and cannot lose. An eight is the second-best hand and is called a natural. If both player and bank are dealt identical hands, it is a standoff (a tie) and neither bank nor player wins.

The dealer gives two cards each to the player and the banker.

• If either the player or the banker has a total of an 8 or a 9 they both stand. There is no exceptions and this rule overrides all other rules.
• If the player has total of 6 or 7, the player stands.
• If the player stands, the banker hits on a total of 5 or less.
• If the player has total of 5 or less, the player automatically hits and the banker gives the player a third card.

If the player gets the third card then the banker draws a third card according to the following rules:

• Banker has total of 0, 1, 2: Banker always draws a third card.
• Banker has total of 3: Banker draws if Player's Third Card is 1-2-3-4-5-6-7-9-0 (not 8)
• Banker has total of 4: Banker draws if Player's Third Card is 2-3-4-5-6-7
• Banker has total of 5: Banker draws if Player's Third Card is 4-5-6-7
• Banker has total of 6: Banker draws if Player's Third Card is of 6-7
• Banker has total of 7: Banker always stands.

You can use the following table to determine if the Banker hits or stands if the Player has drawn a card.

H - hit, S - stand.

The theme works pretty well if you're a film buff, offering movie reels, cameras, and Hollywood stars amongst other things as reel symbols. 3 Hollywood stars wins the jackpot - but only if max coins are played. Hollywood stars are 'wild' symbols.

Lower payouts are still pretty good - 3 cameras for example is the second highest win, but at 1500 coins is still more of a 'jackpot' than most regular games, so this is a good game to play if you're hunting for a big win on a budget.
