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 highest of the high rollers often come from overseas to try their hand under the chandeliers of the stylish Vegas baccarat rooms. It is played by the exact same rules, but lacks the accoutrements of the formal version. Baccarat is a high-class card game with high minimum bets. Some casinos have Mini-Baccarat in the regular gaming areas which is the same game except the minimum bets are lower. Baccarat has one of the lowest house edges of any casino game (1.06%), making it an excellent value. You can bet on either hand to win. One hand is called "Banker" and the other hand is deceptively called "Player", but you can bet on either hand. In the event of a "Tie", the bet is a push and the "Tie" bet is paid. Preset rules dictate whether a given hand gets third card. Baccarat is generally played at about 50-120 hands per hour, and Mini-Baccarat is played at about 150-300 hands per hour. Remember the slower you play, the longer your money will last. If the PLAYER STANDS, the DEALER must: draw if Dealers total is 0 to 5; stand if Dealers total is 6 or 7. If the score of either hand totals 8 or 9, the game is over and no further cards are dealt to either hand.
