BankerBank; Zhuang: One of the two main hands in baccarat. Betting on Banker means you expect the Banker hand to finish with a total closer to nine. The third-card rules lean slightly in Banker's favour, so wins on this bet usually carry a commission or a reduced payout in certain situations.; Example: Banker holds a total of 7 and Player holds 5, so the Banker bet wins.
PlayerXian: The second hand in baccarat; it does not refer to you as the person playing. A Player bet wins when that hand ends closer to nine than Banker, normally paying 1:1 with no commission. Only the last digit of the card total counts, so an 8 and a 7 make 5, not 15.; Example: Player is dealt a 9 and a 4, so the hand counts as 3, not 13.
TieDraw: A bet that Banker and Player will finish on the same total. Ties are rare, which is why the payout is much higher than on Banker or Player, but the house edge on this bet is also larger. When a tie happens, Banker and Player bets are usually returned.; Example: Both hands total 6, so the Tie bet is paid at the rate shown on the table, for example 8:1.
CommissionKomisen: A cut taken from winning Banker bets in standard baccarat to offset the Banker hand's small advantage. Commission only applies when you win, never on a losing bet. The actual rate is listed in the table rules and can differ between providers.; Example: For example, if a table charges 5% commission, a RM100 win on Banker pays RM95.
No-commission baccaratBaccarat tanpa komisen; Super 6: A baccarat variant that takes no commission from Banker wins. Instead, one special case pays less, typically a Banker win on a total of 6, which pays only half. The house edge is still there; what changes is how and when it is collected.; Example: Banker wins on 7 and you are paid in full at 1:1; if Banker wins on 6, you receive only half your stake as winnings.
Dragon TigerNaga Harimau: A quick card game in which one card goes to Dragon and one to Tiger, and the higher card wins. Ace is the lowest card and King the highest. With only one card per side, rounds are very short. If both cards match in value, Dragon and Tiger bets usually lose half, depending on the table rules.; Example: Dragon draws a 9 and Tiger draws a Jack, so the Tiger bet wins.
Sic Bo Big/SmallBesar/Kecil; Tai Sai: The most basic bet in Sic Bo, a game played with three dice. Big wins when the dice total 11 to 17, and Small wins when they total 4 to 10. Both lose when all three dice show the same number (a triple), and that outcome is where the house gets its edge.; Example: The dice land on 3, 4 and 6 for a total of 13, so the Big bet wins.
Roulette inside and outside betsPertaruhan dalam dan luar: Inside bets go on specific numbers or small groups on the main grid, such as a single number (straight up) or two neighbouring numbers (split). Outside bets cover large groups such as red/black, odd/even or a dozen. Inside bets pay more but win less often.; Example: A bet on number 17 alone is an inside bet, while a bet on red is an outside bet.
Betting windowBetting time; countdown: The limited time before each round of a live game, usually shown by a countdown timer on screen. Bets are accepted only while the window is open. Once the timer runs out the table closes, and any taps after that do not count. A slow internet connection can make your bet miss the window.; Example: The timer had already reached zero when you tapped your chip, so the bet was not accepted and your balance stayed the same.
Game showsRancangan permainan: Live games styled like television shows, run by a host with a big wheel, a board or giant dice, and often featuring bonus rounds and random multipliers. Providers such as Evolution and Pragmatic Play Live offer this format. Every show has its own rules, so read the in-game guide before placing a bet.; Example: In a wheel game you pick the segment you expect to stop at the pointer, and a bonus segment opens a separate round.

Most live tables show past results on a scoreboard, yet every round is independent of the one before. To see why past patterns cannot predict the next result, read about house edge in the safe-play glossary. Slot vocabulary lives in the slot glossary.
