Eventually,
baccarat evolved into European baccarat and the French game 'chemin de fer'. Chemin de fer is very similar to baccarat as it's played in American casinos today. The difference is one of the players banks the game instead of the casino. The title of banker rotates around the table in a manner similar to the dice at a craps table. In casinos based in the Portuguese territory of Macao, near Hong Kong, the popularity of baccarat is unrivaled. A number of casinos have installed a smaller version of the baccarat game played on standard blackjack-sized gaming tables. It is played by the exact same rules, but lacks the accoutrements of the formal version. You can bet on either hand to win. In Mini-Baccarat a casino employee deals the cards. The hand closer to 9 wins. Aces count as 1, and face cards have no value. A 9 is an automatic win unless the other side has 9, which is a tie. An 8 is an automatic win, unless the other side has a 9 (loss) or an 8 (tie) Baccarat is generally played at about 50-120 hands per hour, and Mini-Baccarat is played at about 150-300 hands per hour. It's more fun to play with more people. If the Banker hand
totals 7, 8 or 9, the Banker does not get another card. The suits of the cards
have no meaning in the game.
