Baccarat may seem complicated because of all the terms that are used. If you are intimidated by this new vocabulary, don't worry, it is all quite simple to understand. In fact baccarat is a very simple game to learn and play.

The most important term you need to know is "baccarat". This simply means that your score is zero.

Next is the phrase, "burning the top cards". This phrase is as it sounds and means discarding the top 3-6 card after the dealer shuffles before play begins. This is to help ensure that cards from the last game are not reused in the next hand.

The "caller" is the person who scores the hands of the banker and the player. The caller is the one who determines the winner.

A "coup" is simply the bet that you place. When you place a bet it is called, "fading"

If your first two cards of your baccarat hand total 9 you have what is called "La Grande" which is translated as the big one. The opposite of La Grande is "La Petite" which is translated as the little one which means that the first two cards of your baccarat hand total 8.

Many of these baccarat terms are French terms as baccarat was originally a French card game. Once your get over the language barrier, the terminology of baccarat is actually quite easy to understand.
