3.0 Cards, Number of Decks and Value

3.1 Baccarat shall be played with eight decks of cards and one cutting card.

3.2 Subject to rule 7.6 of this division, the value of the cards in each deck shall be as follows:

(a) any card from two to nine shall have its face value;

(b) any ten, jack, queen or king shall have a value of zero; and

3.3 No player or spectator shall handle, alter or withdraw any cards used in the game of baccarat except as expressly permitted by these rules, and no dealer or other person shall permit a player or spectator to do so.

3.4 The point count of a hand shall be determined by totalling the value of the cards in the hand. If the total value of the cards in a hand is a two-digit number, the left digit of such number shall be discarded having no value and the right digit shall constitute the point count of the hand.

(a) a wager on the “Banker’s Hand” which shall:

(i) win if the Banker’s Hand has a final point count higher than that of the Player’s Hand,

(ii) lose if the Banker’s Hand has a final point count lower than that of the Player’s Hand,
