Fortune 6 Baccarat Side Bets: Fortune 6, Player 6, Banker 6 and Fortune Pair

Fortune 6 Baccarat has no bonus round. There's no multiplier wheel, no mini-game and no feature that interrupts the normal baccarat deal; it's a straight card game from first bet to last. What gives this table its identity instead is a set of four side bets, Fortune 6, Player 6, Banker 6 and Fortune Pair, each settled from the cards already on the table. This page covers what each one claims to do, why the reported payout figures don't fully agree with each other, and exactly what our 10,688-round tracked sample since 2026-09-05 can and cannot tell you about them.

Why doesn't Fortune 6 Baccarat have a bonus round?

Because it's a card game built on the same fixed baccarat structure as any other table, not a game show format. Titles like Crazy Time or Monopoly Live carry wheel spins and multiplier mini-games as their central draw; Fortune 6 Baccarat carries none of that. Every round follows the same sequence, two cards to Player, two to Banker, a natural check, fixed drawing rules for any third card, and a winner. The side bets sit alongside that sequence rather than interrupting it, which is why this page covers them in place of a bonus-mechanics writeup.

What is the Fortune 6 side bet, and what does it pay?

Fortune 6 is named for the game itself, and it wins when a six-point hand shows up among the cards dealt during a round, rather than depending on which base hand wins. Beyond that description, the specific payout table is genuinely unsettled across the sources available to us.

One cluster of review sites reports a payout structure based on how many sixes appear:

Result	Reported payout (source cluster A)
One 6-point hand	3:1
Two 6-point hands	30:1
Three 6-point hands (extended draws)	120:1

A separate cluster of review sites instead reports a structure based specifically on the Banker hand's card count:

Result	Reported payout (source cluster B)
Banker wins on a 6 with two cards	12:1
Banker wins on a 6 with three or more cards	20:1

These two tables don't describe the same bet. Cluster A counts sixes across either hand generally; cluster B is specific to a Banker six and further conditions the payout on card count. No Pragmatic Play primary rules page for this table was reachable to determine which structure, if either, is the one actually used, so this guide presents both without endorsing either. If you're considering this bet, the only reliable source for its actual terms is the paytable displayed in your own game client before you stake anything.

What do Player 6 and Banker 6 pay?

Player 6 and Banker 6 are narrower bets than Fortune 6: each pays only when the specifically named hand both wins the round and finishes on a total of six. One source reports 14:1 for Player 6 and 16:1 for Banker 6. This comes from a single review site rather than a confirmed primary source, and we found no second source to cross-check it against, so these numbers carry the same reported-not-certified status as everything else on this page.

What is Fortune Pair, and what does it pay?

Fortune Pair looks only at the first two cards of a hand, independent of who wins the round, and pays based on whether those two cards are suited, paired in rank, or both. One source reports 1:1 for a suited pair, 5:1 for a matching-rank pair, and 9:1 for a suited pair that also matches in rank, the tightest and highest-paying version of the three conditions. As with the other side bets, this figure comes from a single source and hasn't been cross-checked against a Pragmatic Play primary rules page.

How does the reported RTP compare across the four side bets?

Side bet	Reported RTP	Approximate house edge	Payout status
Fortune Pair	97.83%	2.17%	Reported, single source
Fortune 6	96.26%	3.74%	Reported, payout structure contradicted between sources
Player 6	95.62%	4.38%	Reported, single source
Banker 6	93.36%	6.64%	Reported, single source

All four sit below the base Banker (98.94%) and Player (98.76%) figures, which is the ordinary shape for baccarat side bets generally: a lower hit rate and a bigger headline payout usually costs more per unit wagered than the base game, and nothing about these figures suggests Fortune 6 Baccarat's side bets are an exception. The strategy page covers how that difference should factor into bankroll planning.

Is there a limit on how long these side bets are offered?

One source reports that Fortune 6 stops being offered after 30 hands into the current shoe, and Player 6, Banker 6 and Fortune Pair after 40 hands, with betting on them presumably resuming after the next shuffle. This detail comes from a single source we could not corroborate elsewhere, so it's listed here as reported, not confirmed; the side-bet menu shown in your own game client at the time you're playing is the only reliable way to know what's currently on offer.

What can our tracker actually confirm about these side bets?

Nothing about their outcomes, and that's worth stating plainly rather than glossing over. Our collector reads Pragmatic Play's game data feed for this table (table ID 434, sharing its parser with Mega Baccarat) and records the winning hand, the final Player and Banker scores, the cards dealt, and flags for natural hands, pairs and perfect pairs on the base game. Fortune 6, Player 6, Banker 6 and Fortune Pair results are not part of that feed at all. There is no hit-or-miss flag for any of them in our database, and no bet-amount data of any kind.

That means the "observed frequency" a reader might expect on a bonus-mechanics page simply doesn't exist for this game's side bets, and won't exist unless Pragmatic Play's feed itself starts carrying that data. What our 10,688 rounds since 2026-09-05 can speak to is the base game: Banker won 45.9%, Player 44.4% and Tie 9.7%, in line with standard baccarat proportions, over a single continuous window of just over three days, too small to validate even the base-game RTP figures, let alone say anything about the side bets. The multiplier field in our data stays fixed at 1.00 on every round, confirming this game has no multiplier mechanic layered onto any bet, base or side.

How does this compare with other Pragmatic Play baccarat side-bet setups?

Mega Baccarat shares the same parser and the same side-bet blind spot in our data, whatever side bets it carries aren't visible to our tracker either. Lightning Baccarat takes an entirely different approach to variance, a fee-funded random multiplier rather than a fixed side-bet menu, so its "extras" section looks nothing like this one. Speed Baccarat carries its own pair-based side bets but no six-themed wagers at all. Fortune 6 Baccarat's four-bet, six-and-pair-themed side menu is specific to this table among the games the site tracks, and per this page, several of its exact terms remain unresolved outside the game's own live paytable. For how source completeness like this factors into a game's overall data-transparency standing, see the Live Casino Fairness Index and the site's RTP Transparency Monitor; for the full rule set and the base-game RTP context, see the Fortune 6 Baccarat guide and RTP page.

Frequently asked questions

Does Fortune 6 Baccarat have a bonus round?

No. It has no bonus feature, multiplier wheel or mini-game of any kind; it is a straight card game. What it does have is four side bets, Fortune 6, Player 6, Banker 6 and Fortune Pair, that function as the game's only added variance beyond standard Player, Banker and Tie betting.

What does the Fortune 6 side bet pay?

We cannot state a confirmed figure. One cluster of review sites reports 3:1, 30:1 and 120:1 for one, two or three sixes among the dealt cards; a different cluster reports 12:1 for a two-card Banker six and 20:1 for a three-plus-card Banker six. These describe different winning conditions and don't reconcile, and no Pragmatic Play primary source was reachable to resolve which applies.

What do Player 6 and Banker 6 pay?

One source reports 14:1 for Player 6 and 16:1 for Banker 6, both paying when the named hand wins with a total of six. This comes from a single review site rather than a confirmed Pragmatic Play rules page, so treat the figures as reported rather than certified, and confirm the actual paytable at your own table before staking anything on either bet.

Does our tracker show how often the side bets win?

No. Our collector's feed for this table carries no side-bet outcome data whatsoever, no Fortune 6 hit or miss, no Player 6 or Banker 6 result, no Fortune Pair flag, and no bet-amount data. We can report the winning base hand and the cards dealt; side-bet frequency is outside what our data can speak to.

Is the Fortune 6 side bet worth playing?

Its reported RTP of 96.26% is worse than either base bet, Banker at 98.94% and Player at 98.76%, and its exact payout structure is disputed across sources. Between the higher reported edge and the unresolved payout question, it carries more uncertainty than the base game, which is worth weighing before betting it.
