A "Fire Bet" is an optional wager that can be made in conjunction with the operation of a standard casino craps game. All casino policies, procedures and house rules will remain the same.

The player can only make a bet on this bonus wager, before the first "Come Out" roll of a new shooter.

Fire Bet limits and payouts are posted at each table.

A Fire Bet cannot be taken down or "called off" once the new shooter has established the initial point.

This bonus wager shall be paid according to the number of "Individual Points" the shooter successfully makes before the dice "Seven Out".

-Note: The term "Individual Points" shall mean, when a point is successfully made from the pool of possible points (4, 5, 6, 8, 9, or 10) more than once, it shall neither advance nor subtract from the player's goal of reaching a Fire Bet payoff threshold.

Thus, making a point more than once, will only count as one "Individual Point" made.

POINTS DO NOT HAVE TO BE IN ANY SPECIFIC ORDER

Winning or losing on the "Come Out" roll will not affect this bonus wager. Only the "Seven Out" or successfully making all (6) "Individual Points", will terminate the bet.

As this is a "multi-level" payoff structure, only the highest payoff level met, will be paid.
- Example: If (5) "Individual Points" are successfully made, only the (5) point payoff will be made and not the lesser payoff threshold met.

Players making a bet on this bonus wager must place their wager on the appropriate, numerically, marked "Fire Bet" circle on the layout directly below their gaming position.

The game of midi-baccarat is quite simple to play and is often an exciting, popular addition to a casino’s gaming mix. A player has only to choose how much to bet on a given hand and whether to be on the Player hand, the Banker hand, or on a tie. These are merely designations for each of the two hands which will be dealt; the house actually books all bets. After that, the Dealer will play out the cards according to the rules of the game, determine the winning hand, and take and pay all bets. The players really has no more decisions to make.

The “Point Count” of a hand shall be a single number from 0 to 9 inclusive, and shall be determined by totaling the value of the cards in the hand. If the total of the cards in the hand is a two digit number, the left digit of such number shall be discarded having no value and the right digit shall constitute the “Point” of the hand.

EXAMPLES: A hand composed of an Ace, 2 and 4, has a point total of 7. A hand composed of an Ace, 2 and 9 has a total of 12, but only a “Point Count” of 2 since the digit 1 in the number 12 is discarded
