Baccarat Card Game

Baccarat is a game of chance with cards. It was probably introduced into France from Italy during the reign of Charles VIII of France who ruled between 1483 and 1498. There are three generally accepted versions of the game: baccarat chemin de fer, baccarat banque (also a deux called tableaux), and punto banco (also known as North American baccarat). The latest version can be played in the Netherlands in the casinos of Holland Casino.
