The game of Baccarat (pronounced ba-ka-ra) is derived from Chemin De Fer or Baccarat en Banque, one of Europe's oldest and most popular card games. It is a high-limit game from which casinos developed a game for lower-limit players called mini-baccarat. Baccarat is a very simple game to play. The dealer handles the draw of cards according to specific rules and, as in Roulette or Craps, the player has no decisions to make during the game. The only two decisions a bettor must make, before each hand is dealt, are selection of the position he or she believes will win the next hand, and determining the amount of the wager. The Baccarat House banks all bets, and collects or makes payouts on each hand that is dealt. Overall, Baccarat is one of the best games in the Casino for the bettor.
