What’s
up
with
Baccarat?
(Part

Continued
from...
Most
every
online
gambling
sites
that
provides
this
casino
game
and
especially
land
based
casinos,
have
multiple
tables.
These
different
tables
have
different
wager
limits.
Now,
depending
on
the
online
gambling
site,
you
may
be
able
to
find
a
lower
minimum
bet,
but
in
most
land
casinos,
the
minimum
wager
is
around
$25.
This
is
probably
the
main
reason
casino
players
feel
they
need
a
lot
of
cash
to
play
and
why
many
assume
it
is a
game
for
the
rich
only.
But
if
you
can
afford
to
bet
on
each
round
of
play,
the
casino’s
advantage
in
the
game
is
about
1.2-1.4%.
So,
this
is
the
casino
game
to
play
when
you
have
a
bit
of a
bankroll
budget.
This
scenario
makes
some
online
gambling
fans
irritated
because
they
feel
it
is
another
fine
example
as
to
how
the
rich
can
get
richer.
But,
if
you
take
a
moment
to
consider
that
mentality
it
makes
no
sense
really.
So,
if
you
have
to
save
a
bit
to
play
this
game
– do
it.
Why
not
be
smart
about
it.
Instead
of
plugging
quarters
into
a
slot
machine
game
(which
take
just
as
much
thought
as
baccarat),
save
up
and
play
the
bigger
minimum
betting
game
of
baccarat.
While
most
online
gambling
sites
may
provide
varying
minimum
wager
games,
you
will
not
find
any
cheap
games
still.
Playing
this
game
When
you
log
onto
your
favorite
online
casino
to
play
this
game
it
is
simple
to
get
started.
When
you
swagger
up
to
the
table
in
Vegas
or
wherever
else,
you
will
see
that
this
table
may
be
roped
off.
It
looks
exclusive,
but
you
are
welcome
to
play
it -
do
not
run.
You
will
see
many
observers
as
well.
Just
like
any
other
casino
game,
your
first
move
will
be
to
buy
your
chips.
Let’s
say
the
table
minimum
wager
is
fifty
bucks.
In
this
case,
you
will
want
to
buy
at
least
$
100
in
chips
–
this
just
enough
for
two
rounds.
This
is
okay
considering
you
are
trying
for
the
first
time
right?
Right.
Before
making
any
bets
now,
take
a
good
look
at
the
table’s
layout.
If
you
are
sitting
in
seat
number
1,
(Note:
online
gambling
software
is
the
same,
but
obviously
automated
and
animated)
you
should
see
three
spots
to
place
wagers
in.
There
are
two
casino
employees
(dealers),
both
sitting
on
the
same
side
of
the
table;
they
are
shuffling
8
decks
of
cards.
For
the
time
being,
there
is
nothing
for
you
to
do.
You
can
sit
back
and
relax
right
now.
After
all,
you
will
see
the
fat
cats
relaxing
really
well
around
you.
The
action
After
a
short
time,
the
dealers
are
done
shuffling
and
the
casino
game
action
is
underway.
One
of
the
dealers
will
hand
you
a
plastic
card
and
slides
all
8
decks
near
you
(you
are
sitting
in
the
#1
position
that
is
why).
This
is
just
the
cutting
of
the
cards.
Just
insert
the
plastic
card
into
the
deck
somewhere
and
that
will
mark
the
cut.
After
that,
the
dealer
removes
the
first
card
from
the
shoe
and
shows
it
to
the
players
at
the
table.
Say
it
is a
6.
No
biggie
right?
Well,
keep
that
thought
for
a
moment.
This
means
6
more
cards
are
removed
from
the
deck.
They
go
into
the
discard
pile.
So,
if
the
first
card
was
a 2
–
then
2
cards
would
have
been
burned
into
the
discard
pile.
This
is a
preventive
move
to
stop
cheaters
and
cheating.
Then,
the
shoe
is
placed
in
front
of
you.
No
worries
here.
This
just
means
you
are
the
banker.
No
worries
again,
you
do
not
have
to
pay
off
the
winners
either.
This
just
means
that
you
are
going
to
be
in
charge
of
the
shoe
right
now.
Now
that
you
are
the
banker
playing
this
online
casino
game
or
in a
casino
on
The
Strip
or
where
ever
else
you
are,
you
have
to
make
a
bet.
It
is
required
of
you
as
the
bankers.
You
can
bet
on
the
bankers
or
players,
most
online
gambling
and
land
based
gambling
players
will
wager
on
the
banker
when
they
have
the
shoe.
Meaning,
most
bankers
wager
on
the
banker
bet.
But,
you
do
not
have
to
be
the
banker
if
you
do
not
want
to
be
–you
just
pass
it
onto
the
next
guy
in
line
to
be
the
banker
(the
player
to
your
right).
Please
be
sure
to
continue
this
online
gambling
article
as
we
will
keep
going
with
the
game’s
action
there.
