INTRODUCTION
NetEnt’s Baccarat Pro is an online casino table aimed at fans of traditional baccarat. If you want a game without distracting side bets, then this release will be perfect for you! The developers went out of their way to create good looking and fast-paced animations. If you’d prefer to just skip to the result, you can enable Fast Play from the settings. It disables all animations, and shows which side won the round.
The RTP for this game is 98.94%, provided you keep betting on the Banker. NetEnt’s release is played with eight decks. However, it has no bonus bets that you can play. No hunting for pairs or getting a reward for achieving a certain type of win. It does mean the temptation to play side bets is gone. Then again, so is the chance to win big randomly.
HOW TO PLAY BACCARAT PRO
You start the game with a zoomed-in view of the table. You have a selection of coins on the bottom right of the screen. You can use the arrows to browse through all of them. There’s also a grey coin with a red x. You use it to remove other coins in case you make a mistake while setting up your wagers.
Players can only make three choices while playing Baccarat Pro. The initial two wagers are that the player (left) or banker (right) will win the round. Alternatively, you may bet that the next round will result in a tie. While this is the highest paying option, it’s also quite rare. We wouldn’t recommend betting on it unless you’re confident about your luck.
Unfortunately, the NetEnt release doesn’t have much in terms of scoreboards. It has only one, which keeps track of the numbers and which side won. However, it only goes back to the last ten rounds. Hardly enough to use said scoreboard to catch a potential trend. It’s better than nothing, but other software providers do it much better.
PAYOUTS
Player and banker wins pay their standard fare in NetEnt’s release. A player win earns you a 1:1 prize, though it has a lower chance of occurring. Banker bets win more frequently, but they pay 0.95:1. This is due to a 5% commission present on banker wins that allows casinos to keep their edge. The last bet you can make is the Tie bet, which pays 9:1 in this game. This is better than most other developers, who will pay 8:1 for a winning Tie Bet instead.
what we like
- Gorgeous graphics
- Focused on core baccarat gameplay

what we don’t like
- No side bets at all
- Only one very limited scoreboard
BACCARAT PRO (NETENT): CASINOBLOKE’S VERDICT
Ultimately, how much you enjoy NetEnt’s Baccarat Pro will depend on your love of side bets. The increased Tie Bet is nice, don’t get us wrong. At the same time, we’re willing to wager more people play side bets over betting on a tie. If you just want to play baccarat without any extras, it’s an easy recommendation. Otherwise, you might want to try a release made by another developer.
