The American Baccarat is
played at the table which consists of two identical ends and a middle area for
the croupier. The typical layout of the
baccarat table is shown on the image.
 Areas
on the Baccarat Table:
-

Dealer

Drop Box

Tips box
Up to 14 players occupy the seats which correspond to
the numbers on the layout. The No. 13 seat is eliminated, because of the
superstition that surrounds the number. So, the 14th player will be seated at
No. 15. In front of the players is a section for placing
wagers.
You may sit in any open seat at the table, the
position does not affect the play in any manner.
Each player has three
betting areas associated with his position at the table, corresponding to
the possible choices at the beginning of each game: "Banker", "Player" or "Tie".
Three dealers service each table. The dealer standing
between positions one and 15 (position
1) is known as the "caller" or "croupier", and directs the play of the game and
makes calls on the hands.
Two other dealers work on the position 2 and 3. One
dealer serves players 1 through 7, the other serves 8 through 14. They pay
bets when a player wins and takes bets
away on losses. In the croupier area there are numbered boxes, which are used to
track how much commission each player owes the house |
