Mini baccarat is played by the exact same rules of standard baccarat, with the exception that players do not take turns to be the banker. The table is staffed by only one dealer who is responsible for handling the cards. The table structure is similar to the regular baccarat table and each of the seven seat positions correspond to a number and betting box with spots for banker, player, and tie. The limits in mini baccarat are lower and generally range from a $2 to $5 minimum, up to $500 maximum. The player dress code be very casual and the game is played fast and it makes for easy learning.
