Julius Gordon is a high roller from Southgate, London UK. He’s a self professed risk taker. He lives for the rush that you get just before you win and sometimes he wins some and sometimes he loses some.
Last Saturday, on the 4th of May 2013, Jules (as his wife Debra refers to him) sat down at his computer while sipping on his favorite Jack on the rocks to play some High Limit Baccarat at Ladbrokes Casino.
Three hours after depositing £5000, Jules had won £66,250. He sent an email to customer support requesting that his winnings be paid immediately (large sums won are usually put in a pending state for 24 hours while the casino verifies the players identity, but this can be waived if the player has withdrawn at a casino before).
Jules was paid his £66,250 via NETELLER the very next day.
Now this is the kind of story we love to write about.
About High Limit Baccarat
High Limit Baccarat which is also referred to a Punto Banco is a favorite among high rollers because of its potential to win really big.
At Ladbrokes Casino the minimum bet is £10 while the Maximum bet is £2500.00.
A player can place 5 types of bets:
1. Player
2. Banker
3. Tie
4. Player and Tie
5. Banker and Tie
To win a hand the player should predict which cards between the players and the bankers will have a value closest to 9.
At the start of the game two cards each are drawn for the player and the banker.
All picture cards and tens count zero.
The Ace counts 1.
All other cards count as their face value.
If the sum of the two cards drawn is larger than 9, then the hand value is adjusted by subtracting ten from the total.
For example:
9+8 = 17 – hand counts as 7
5+5+5 = 15 – hand counts as 5
