Welcome to our Baccarat Games section. In this section we will teach you the intricate baccarat strategies, tips, rules, odds as well as some important information when it comes to playing baccarat in online casinos as well as land based casinos. There are three present-day games that are essentially the same and sometimes all thought of as baccarat. Read below to find out what they are.

1. Chemin de fer: This game is played in some European casinos, but is not played in the U.K. and North America. The objective is the same (to get as close to 9 as possible) but the rules permit a few conditions where drawing a card is not obligatory. The casino doesn't play the role of banker, the players bet alongside each other, the players take turns being the banker-dealer the house takes a normal cut out of the player banker's winning coup.


2. Baccarat: This game is the only game played in the U.K. and North America. The goal is the same though the game is severely mechanical with formal rules dictating every aspect of play. The house banks the game, therefore the bets can be a great deal larger than when another player is acting as the bank, also with the house assuming the role of banker the game can be played with as few as one player.


3. Mini-baccarat: A new version of the game. The game is played at a blackjack sized table with up to seven players. The rules are similar as for the full version of baccarat, though to speed up the game the players don't feel the cards they are dealt by the casino dealer. The stakes are much lower for this game than the full version, this plus the less formal atmosphere make this version appeal to many players.
