Mini Baccarat Casino Game
Mini baccarat spun off of baccarat, a casino table game that originated in 16th century Italy and remains huge in European casinos. Cuban mini baccarat has emerged as the game's most widespread variation, and is what can be likeliest found at the casino tables today. Among casino games, the betting rules for mini baccarat, along with baccarat, are some of the easiest to learn.
The Object of the Game
In a game of mini baccarat, you are not competing against the dealer or the other players. Quite specifically, you are betting on the cards. The object of the game is to obtain a two-card hand (in some cases, up to a three-card hand) with a total value that is closest to 9.
The big difference between baccarat and mini baccarat is simply this: in a game of baccarat, players alternate being the "banker" (dealer) by passing the "bank" (the dealing shoe that holds the cards) clockwise. In a game of mini baccarat, the dealer is always the banker and the players never get to hold the bank or touch the cards.
Otherwise, the rules of both games are generally the same, as outlined here as well as in the baccarat section.
Mini Baccarat Strategy
Mini baccarat and baccarat are practically the same game except for one little detail: in mini baccarat, the dealer is always the banker, and no player ever becomes the banker. That is that, all else is similar.
To play the game, all one has to do is choose where to place his bet—the banker or player, or a tie—and how much money to wager. Which explains why a "mini baccarat strategy" is a bit of a non-phrase. It is really as random as a coin toss. But for some reason, method-based systems for mini baccarat continue to prosper, and for shame. Mini baccarat is a game of chance. There is no merit in applying to such games any strategy based on a series of or pattern in previous outcomes.
