Baccarat is a casino game conducted in a grandiose atmosphere. While it may attract the well-dressed high-roller, baccarat is a simple game of chance that involves no skill on the part of the player or dealer.

In Europe, the elegant game of baccarat is one of the most popular casino games.
It has long held the attention of gamblers and an early version, dating from the Middle Ages, was played with Tarot cards. Baccarat may have originated in Italy around 1490, but by the 1700s it had become the game of choice for the French nobility. Eventually baccarat evolved into European baccarat and the French game chemin de fer.

In baccarat, players normally sit in any of the 14 seats at the table, as seating position does not affect play. Each seat corresponds to the number 1 through 15 on the table layout, excluding a spot numbered 13 to avoid bad luck. Three dealers service each table. The dealer standing in the middle is known as the croupier or the caller. The croupier makes the calls on each hand as they are dealt and directs the players on game procedures. The other two dealers are responsible for handling the payoffs.
