Popular live table formats
Baccarat
Player, Banker and Tie selections settle from the dealt hands. Understand commission and table-specific side bets before choosing.
Roulette
Straight, split and outside bets have different payout profiles. Check whether the table uses a single-zero or another wheel format.
Blackjack
Player decisions affect the result. Read dealer rules, split and double conditions, and the payout for a natural blackjack.
Game-show tables
Wheel and multiplier formats add entertainment mechanics. The published rules still determine odds and settlement.

Main bets and side bets
Side bets can offer larger displayed payouts but often carry a different mathematical cost.
| Bet type | Role | Practical approach |
|---|---|---|
| Main bet | Core table outcome | Learn this first and understand its settlement |
| Side bet | Additional event within the round | Check odds and treat it as a separate decision |
| Multiplier bet | Variable payout mechanic | Read how the multiplier is selected and applied |
| Insurance | Conditional blackjack side decision | Understand the cost rather than using it automatically |
