Chemin de Fer is a flexible version of baccarat, but in Banque you can find less of that character. The main difference between Chemin de Fer and Banque is in the rotating role of the banker. While in Chemin de Fer the role of the banker moves after he lose his stakes it is not so in Banque, in this baccarat's variation the banker continue to play, as long as he has the funds to support himself.Three packs of cards are used in this game, more can be found in use in different clubs and casinos but that is uncommon. The banker holds his position until all cards are dealt, or if he cannot finance his role, or if he decides to retire. The position on the bank is put to sell before the game commences and the highest bidder wins, though in some places the first to put his name on the list may take the role of the banker, while doing so with any amount of money he wishes to risk. The banker must play at least one hand before retiring, and when he retires he must announce the amount he earned or lost, and the next banker must start his role with the same amount of money being present in time of the banker's retirement. The role of the banker moves in rotation, and any player may decline the offer to become the banker. The past banker takes the place of his heir. After a player takes the role of the banker the game commence, the croupier shuffles the decks and handing them forward to the punters who then shuffle them if they wish to do so, the last shuffle is reserved to the banker, so do the option to choose the punter who would cut the cards. The banker sits in the middle of the baccarat table, facing him is the croupier, and between them, from each side of the table, there are five players in each side, thus ten in total, which is a full table. Other punters may bet outside of the table but only if the stakes of the players is lower than the banker's.After the cards are shuffled and cut the punters lay their bets and the banker deals three cards. One to the player to his right, one to the players to his left and then one card to himself. Thr procedure reapets once again, thus ending the banker and the two players, with two crads each.The right wing wins or lose depending on the cards given to them by the banker, the same goes to the left wing. After a punter loses his cards a next hand is dealt to the player sitting next to him.The croupier do not interfere unless the players or the banker disobeyed the rules. As for the rules for dealing a third card, when a banker stands and so on can be found in our article about Chemin de Fer, the rules are the same in both cases. A player may "go bank" at any given time, if he lose he may do so once again, but no more than three times. The player to the banker's right has the first claim to "go bank", If two players, from both sides of the table, decide to "go bank" then, in case they win, they split the bank among them. A player may also split two cards, thus making two hands, and go bank with them. For more information read our articles about Chemin de Fer and PuntoBanco.

Six full decks are shuffled together and the players sit according to a collective decision. The first player sits to the croupier's right arm and the other players are sitting beside him in a circular order by the predetermined resolution.The croupier shuffles the cards, hand them to the next player, who shuffles again and hand it to the next player and so on till the cards are back to the croupier, who then hands them to the player to his left. The player cuts the cards, hand them back to the croupier, he take a fair amount of the cards for later rounds and hands the rest to the player sitting to his right. When this amount of cards are depleted after a round or more he then put the first cards in the "basket", which is located in the center of the table, and he takes fresh cards from the ones left.The player holding the cards is the "banker". Notice that in Chemin de Fer the casinos do not interfere with the game, the croupier is managing the conduct of the game but otherwise he does not intervene. The banker is responsible for the amount he wins or loses. It is up to the banker to accept or decline wagers from the players, also he is responsible to distribute the winnings or to claim the pot in case he wins. The player with the highest stakes gets to play against the bank. If too players have equal stakes then the player who sits first respectively to the rotation plays.The banker deals two cards to himself and to the player, if one of them reaches a total of nine or eight he declares it out loud and the round stops and the bankers pay the punters' gains or claim the pot, if it was him who won. In Chemin de Fer a tie is neither a loss nor a win, the pot remains for the next round. If the banker lost the cards are moved to the next player in order, making him the banker, though he can decline his status and the cards move to the next player.If none declares the banker offers a third card and the round proceeds as following:
If the initial total of the player is 0-4 he "must" accept a third card by saying "card" or "yes". If the initial sum is 5 he has the option to claim or decline a third card. If the initial total is six or seven he "must" refuse a third card. At any point the player can do as he wants, thus the "must", but if he avoids these traditional lines he faces the wrath of the lot, and it is up to him to compensate any loses of the other players.The banker is not under such rules and he can devise any move depending on his initial cards. The banker cannot extract any sum from the pot, if he wishes to dismiss himself from his status he declares "I pass the deal". He must leave the exact sum which was present in the pot when he commenced his duty as the banker. The initial bank is decided in the first round by the croupier. The pot moves to the next player in the rotation, who is free to put any sum at his disposal.Notice that casinos charge a 5% commission on winning bets, this way the game is profitable for casinos but leaves the players in control of the game. Chemin de Fer is game more suitable for dynamic players who would like to have more cardsoptions.

Roulette is somewhat unique amongst modern table games in that it employs a mechanical device as the key element of the game. This is the large and very distinct Roulette wheel, which is mounted horizontally on one end of the table. The hollow of the wheel has numbered pockets ranging from zero to thirty-six. Wagers in Roulette are placed on an area of the table marked with a pattern of boxes and numbers. This is called the game layout. You may place wagers on any particular number, any 4 adjacent numbers, a column or a 'dozens' bet. The wheel is used to determine the outcome of a game of Roulette. Once the bets have been placed the wheel is set spinning and a small (usually metal or ivory) ball is spun onto the wheel in the opposite direction to that of the spinning wheel. The ball will rapidly loose speed and eventually stop in one of the pockets. The number of the pocket is the winning number. Objective The game of Roulette is played by spinning a small ball around a wheel that contains thirty-seven numbered slots. When the wheel stops, the ball comes to rest in one of these slots. The object of Roulette is to correctly predict the slot in which the ball will land. By predicting the right number, you earn a payoff on your bet. The size of the payoff depends on how the bet was placed. Playing the Game There are two basic steps to follow to play a game of Roulette. First you must decide on which numbers or groups of numbers to bet on. You can do this by moving the mouse over the table felt and left clicking to deposit chips on the table. Right clicking will remove chips. You can place chips on individual numbers or on the borders shared by two or four numbers. Once you have decided upon your bet press the Spin button to start the game. The roulette wheel will spin and the ball will be placed on the wheel. It will soon come to rest in one of the numbered pockets on the wheel. If the number falls with in the range of any one of your bets then you have won.
