Mini-Baccarat (often simply called Baccarat) is the variation of Baccarat that is most often played at land-based casinos.
Traditional Baccarat vs Mini-Baccarat
The main difference between the two varieties is in how the cards are dealt to the players. Regular baccarat is played similarly to at-home poker, with one of the players acting as the dealer. Because of this, the game cannot be played by less than two players. Mini-baccarat, on the other hand, utilizes a dedicated casino dealer, so it can be played by 1 to 7 players.
