Although traditionally the grandest
of all table games, Baccarat is a simple game of chance.
Players may sit in any of the 12 open seats at the
table, as seating position does not affect the play
in any manner. Those participating in the game may
place a wager on either the bank or the player. Two
hands, of two cards each, are dealt from the baccarat ‘shoe.’ Later,
a third card may be required for either hand. The first
hand represents those betting on the player, while
the other hand represents those betting on the bank.
The winning hand is the one which totals the closest
to 9. Tens, cards totaling ten, or picture cards count
as nothing or 0. All other cards count as their face
value. If the cards total a two-digit number, the last
digit counts as the value of the hand. For example,
7+8=15, counts as 5 in baccarat.
Play begins when the shoe is passed
to the first customer, who then deals the cards under
the supervision of the dealers. Four cards are dealt
alternately from the shoe starting with player. If
a third card is required for either or both hands,
the dealer calls for it. Once the play begins, pre-established
rules determine the draw.
All wagers for the bank or player
pay even money. Winning bank bets are charged a five
percent commission. You may also wager that the bank
and the player will draw hands that tie. This wager
pays 9 for 1.
The Mirage also offers Midi-Baccarat
and Mini-Baccarat games.
Blackjack is one of the most popular
casino games. The Mirage offers traditional shoe games,
continuous shufflers, and single- and double-deck games.
The object of the game is to draw cards that total
as close to 21 as possible without going over. Each
player receives two cards and the dealer receives two
cards: one card face up and one down. Tens, Jacks,
Queens, and Kings count as ten and aces may count as
one or eleven. All other cards count as face value.
Players may elect to stand or hit
their hands. If a player hits and his or her total
is more than 21, the player "busts" or loses.
If the dealer "busts" and the player does
not, then the player wins. The player wins if their
total is closer to 21 than the dealer's total. If the
player and dealer have the same total, it is a tie
or “push.”
When a player receives an ace and
a ten-value card as his or her first two cards, the
player has "Blackjack" and wins three to
two on the bet unless the dealer also has Blackjack,
then it would be a push.
The following rules apply at The
Mirage:
• Players may double down on any two cards.
• Players may re-split pairs, but no more than four hands may develop.
• When splitting aces players receive only one card on each ace.
• Players may double down after a split (except when splitting aces).
• Aces may be re-split on shoe and continuous shuffle games.
• Late surrender is offered on shoe and continuous shuffle games.

lands on a number on which a player has placed a chip
the player wins. The payout is determined by how many
numbers are covered by a player's chip.
Pai Gow is played with domino-like
tiles. Four tiles are dealt to each player, the dealer,
and each vacant position at the table. Dice are shaken
and the total on the dice is used to determine which
position receives the first hand. The object of the
game is to create two hands that are both higher than
the bank hand. If one hand is higher than the bank
hand and one lower then it is a push. Bets are paid
even money and the house collects a 5% commission on
all winning wagers.
As the name implies, this unique
game combines elements from Pai Gow and Poker. Players
use a traditional deck of 52 playing cards plus one
joker, which acts only as an ace or to complete a straight,
flush, or straight flush. Players use the seven cards
dealt to them to create two hands; one high hand of
five cards and a second hand of two cards. As in Pai
Gow, both hands must be higher than the bank to win.
The house collects a 5% commission on all winning wagers.
