baccarat game,” commented Sands China Ltd. Executive Vice President and Chief Operating Officer David Sisk. “Its rapid pace, lower minimum game limit and space to accommodate up to 60 players per table are what really set it apart from traditional baccarat games – it’s unlike any other baccarat gameplay in Macao.” The new fast-action version of the baccarat game is an innovative development from Sands China Ltd. and its Macao launch provides a brand new way to play the popular game. Special features of the large FAB table, unique to Sands China Ltd., include one dedicated central card dealing station, with a live video feed displayed on several monitors; and chip trays situated on glide rails that allow the floats to move with the dealers. The result is a high-energy, rapid-fire baccarat experience able to accommodate large groups of players at one game.
“It is a priority for us to explore avenues to bring
different experiences to our customers and ensure that we diversify our gaming offer within the market; FAB is one big way we’re doing that,” Mr. Sisk added.

moved on. Transparent past-post screens pop out at each betting position when ‘no more bets’ is called. Winning positions are lit from beneath, cards are larger for ease of viewing, and in case you missed a quick move, monitors ensure 360 degree viewing. ‘I think I’ll play squeeze baccarat,’ you say to yourself. ‘Or then again, maybe I won’t.’
Because at Fast Action Baccarat at The Venetian Macao, you’ve got a choice.
