Baccarat is one of the simplest casino games around.

Baccarat is a beatable game with a low house edge.

Both the American and European versions of baccarat are late developments of the Italian game called baccara, which means zero in Italian.

The origins of baccara go back to an old Etruscan myth.

The Italian game baccara was popular among French aristocracy during the end of the 15th century.

The American version of the game was introduced to Nevada casinos in the 1950.

In American casinos, baccarat is played in a separated area of the casino, hidden behind velvet curtains.
