Description:
If you are a fan of baccarat you'll be interested in knowing a bit about some of the variations of this great online casino game that exist. One of them is called Chemin de fer. Look for online casino software for this interesting and fun variation of standard baccarat.
You can find this variation of baccarat game in some European casinos (mostly French casinos). It is not played in the North America where casinos prefer to cultivate Nevada Baccarat, described on American baccarat page.
The object of the game is the same - to get winning hand as close to 9 as possible, and the hand values determined by the same rules as for American baccarat.
The main difference is that the casino doesn't play the role of banker, In Chemin de fer you cannot just bet on Player or Bank (Punto or Banco), you must be one or the other. The players wager among themselves, and the bank rotates among the players. The play of the banker can be declined, it then passes to the next player to the right, so the shoe moves counterclockwise around the table like a train (Chemin de Fer is French for "railroad").
