The Baccarat game originates from Italy. It was first played in the Middle Ages. It has been said that first it was played with a Tarot deck. The word Baccarat means zero, because the fache game cards and tens have zero value in the game.
The goal of the game is to gather a hand of two or three cards with a point value as close to nine as possible. Having eight points is the second best and along with nine it is called the "natural" hands. If the player has less point values than eight or nine can say "non" and stand or get one more card face up. The ace values one point, while the picture cards' value is ten. The rest has their face value.
Baccarat is a simple and easy game to play. The rules of this cards game are easy to learn. There are no options, no decisions and it doesn't require any skill in order to play it.
The baccarat game was always surrounded by an air of elegance. In the beginning it was introduced in best casinos for the most sophisticated players. Baccarat with its migration to the internet didn't lose its excitement to this day.
