How Lightning Baccarat works
Lightning Baccarat follows standard baccarat: bets go on Player, Banker or Tie, and the hand with a value closest to 9 takes the round.
Lightning Round. After betting time ends, a lightning effect strikes between one and five Lightning Cards, generated from a virtual 52-card deck. Each is given a random multiplier of 2x, 3x, 4x, 5x or 8x.
Multiplied payouts. If a card in the hand that takes the round matches a Lightning Card, the payout is multiplied. More Lightning Cards in that hand raise the combined multiplier, which Evolution says can reach 512x on Player and Banker bets and 262,144x on Tie bets.
Lightning Fee. Because of these multipliers, a 20% Lightning Fee is added to each player's total bet, so the cost of a round is higher than the stake placed on the table.
Access. Evolution says the game is available on desktop, tablet and smartphone.
