(1) After the banker has placed a wager in support of the banker's hand, the remaining participants at the table shall be given the opportunity of wagering against all or a part of the wager made by the banker, provided however, that such wagers shall not exceed, either individually or in the aggregate, the amount wagered by the banker.
(2) Any participant who equalled and lost the immediately preceding wager of the banker, shall have the first option of making a wager against the banker of an amount equal to the amount being wagered by the banker and the participant shall exercise this option by announcing “banco suivi” or “suivi” and by placing the requisite wager on the appropriate area of the layout of the baccarat-chemin de fer table.
(3) A stand off shall not be counted for the purpose of determining the immediately preceding wager under subregulation (2).
(4) If no qualified participant announces “banco suivi” or “suivi” the next preference shall be given to any participant placing a wager against the banker equal in amount to that wagered by the banker and this option shall be exercised by a participant announcing “banco seul” or “banco” and by placing the requisite wager on the appropriate area of the layout of the baccarat-chemin de fer table.
(5) Whenever more than one participant announces “banco seul” or “banco”, preference shall be given to the participant making such announcement who is seated nearest to the banker in a counter-clockwise direction round the baccarat-chemin de fer table.
(6) If the options granted by subregulations (2) and (4) are not exercised, each participant, beginning with the one seated to the immediate right of the banker and moving counter-clockwise around the baccarat-chemin de fer table, shall have the right to make a wager against a part of the wager made by the banker until such wagers, taken in the aggregate, equal the amount of the wager made by the banker or until the dealer announces “No more bets”.
(7) A wager at baccarat-chemin de fer shall not be made, increased or withdrawn after the dealer has announced “No more bets”, except that the banker shall withdraw any part of his or her initial wager that was not covered by the wagers of the other participants.
(8) Any wager, placed by the participants in cash or authorised cash equivalents, shall be exchanged immediately by the dealer for gaming chips or gaming plaques in accordance with the Regulations governing the acceptance and conversion of such instruments.
(9) The wagers placed by the participants shall—
(a) win if the player's hand has a point count higher than that of the banker's hand;
(b) lose if the player's hand has a point count lower than that of the banker's hand;
(c) be void if the point counts of the banker's hand and player's hand are equal.
