1700 Baccarat — Live Casino Tables for Malaysian Players
This page covers how Baccarat works on the 1700 platform, the table types available, how to bet via smartphone, and everything you need to know before your first session. Information is clearly laid out for both new and experienced players.
Understanding the Different Baccarat Table Types at 1700
Live Baccarat with Real Dealers
The most popular game type on 1700 is Live Baccarat, where players watch a real dealer distribute cards via high-quality video stream. Every round plays out in real time, delivering the feel of a physical casino without leaving home. Dealers speak in a language players understand, and all table interactions are fully visible to everyone seated at that table.
Speed Baccarat for Short Sessions
Speed Baccarat follows the same format as standard Baccarat, but each round is compressed to approximately 27 seconds compared to a full minute in the standard version. This suits players who want to fit more rounds into a shorter session. Keep in mind that betting decision time is also reduced, so players need to be quicker and more focused.
Squeeze Baccarat and the Dramatic Experience
In Squeeze Baccarat, the dealer reveals cards slowly to build tension and drama with each round. This creates a more engaging visual experience and extends each round slightly, making it a favourite among players who prefer a more relaxed, immersive pace. This table type is typically available in the premium section of the 1700 platform.
VIP-Class Baccarat Tables
For players looking for a more exclusive table with higher betting limits and fewer seats, the VIP Baccarat tables at 1700 offer a more private setting. These tables carry higher minimums than standard tables and often feature dedicated dealers and a distinct layout. Access to VIP tables typically requires a certain account balance or membership status.
Low-Limit Tables for New Players
1700 also offers Baccarat tables with very low minimum bets, starting at amounts suitable for players looking to try the game for the first time. These tables are ideal for getting a feel of the gameplay without significant risk, and players can move up to higher-limit tables once they're comfortable with the betting mechanics.
Why Baccarat at 1700 Is Different
High-quality video ensures every move the dealer makes is clearly visible, even on a small smartphone screen.
Live baccarat tables run around the clock, including weekends and public holidays, with no interruptions.
Previous round results are displayed in real time within the interface, helping players track recent outcome patterns.
Top up your account with Boost or Touch 'n Go in under a minute and jump straight to your preferred table.
Account Security & Game Fairness
All connections to the 1700 platform are SSL-encrypted, meaning your personal data and payment details are fully encrypted in transit between your device and the server — the same security standard used by Malaysian online banking institutions.
In Live Baccarat, fairness depends on a real human dealer using a physical deck that is shuffled by hand in front of the camera. This differs from software-based games where results are generated by a Random Number Generator (RNG). In the live format, every card dealt is visible to all players at the table simultaneously, ensuring no outcome can be manipulated unilaterally.
To protect your account, 1700 supports additional authentication layers and login detection from new devices. Any unrecognised activity will be flagged via email or app notification. For a full guide on account security, refer to the Responsible Gaming us.

Key Baccarat Terms
- Banker
- One of the two hands wagered on in Baccarat. "Banker" refers to the dealer's hand, not a financial institution. Betting on Banker carries a slightly higher chance of winning compared to Player, but a small commission is charged on winnings.
- Player
- The second hand in a game of Baccarat. Although it is called "Player", this does not mean you have to bet on this hand — it is simply the label for one of the two main betting positions.
- Tie
- A third outcome where both the Banker and Player hands end on equal value. Tie bets offer significantly higher odds but occur far less frequently than the two main options.
- Natural
- When the first two cards on either hand total 8 or 9, it is called a "Natural". The round ends immediately with no additional cards drawn when a Natural occurs.
- Banker Commission
- Typically 5% of winnings on Banker bets, as the Banker hand statistically wins more often. Accumulated commission is deducted at the end of your session or when you leave the table.
- Bead Road
- One of several scoreboard displays shown on the Baccarat table interface. It records each round result (Banker, Player, or Tie) in sequence, helping players spot patterns.
Baccarat vs Other Table Options
- Only three main betting options (Banker, Player, Tie)
- Players do not make decisions on additional cards
- Low house edge on Banker (~1.06%)
- Great for players who want a more straightforward game
- Available in live format with a real dealer
- Relies on a Random Number Generator (RNG)
- Players betting on themes/symbols rather than the outcome of two hands
- More flexible session length — stop whenever you like
- Progressive jackpots can grow to extremely high values
- No live dealer interaction
Both categories are available on 1700, and players can switch between Baccarat tables and slot games using the same account — no additional steps required.
Daily Rebate & Casino Table Promotions
