What Are Table Games at merchant9?

The table games category on this platform covers baccarat, blackjack, roulette, sic bo, and several exclusive variants. Each game has a quick-start guide so new players can get a handle on the basics before placing their first bet.

Baccarat — Malaysia's Most Popular Table Game
Baccarat consistently ranks as the most-played table game among Malaysian casino players. Its appeal lies in its simplicity — you only need to choose from three betting options: Player, Banker, or Tie. There are no complex decisions to make once the game is underway.
At merchant9, Live Casino tables are hosted by real dealers via live video stream, bringing you the authentic casino atmosphere without leaving home. Baccarat tables are available across a range of betting limits — from low-stakes tables for newcomers to VIP tables for seasoned players.
One reason baccarat is so popular among Malaysian players is its high return rate on the Banker bet — around 98.9% — making it one of the most statistically favourable options across all casino games.
Roulette, Sic Bo & More Variants Available
Beyond baccarat and blackjack, merchant9 has several more compelling table game options to explore.
Roulette is a classic table game that blends luck with a wide variety of betting options. The European version with a single zero (0) carries a lower house edge than the American version. At merchant9, you can go for straightforward bets like red/black, or place specific bets on a single number for higher returns.
Sic Bo has its roots in Asian gambling tradition and is a firm favourite among Malaysian players familiar with dice games. Three dice are shaken inside a container and you bet on the possible outcomes — from Big/Small to specific number combinations. Big or Small bets are the best starting point for new players, with an RTP of around 97.2%.
Blackjack is a table game where players who know basic strategy can bring the house edge down to under 1%. merchant9 provides a dedicated blackjack guide for players who want to learn how to play properly before sitting at a table. Visit the Blackjack for the full guide.
Live Casino format at merchant9 uses video streaming technology to bring real dealers directly to your screen. All major table games are available in Live format across multiple tables and betting limits. You can interact with the dealer and watch results unfold in real time with no delay.
