NCL Pearl: Baccarat ?

[kman008]

Anyone on this board play this disgusting game: Baccarat? :p I'm going on my first cruise on this Saturday and was just wondering if there are typically a lot of Baccarat tables/players on ships.

 

I play this game way too much which is how I ended up with this free cruise (received a comp through Harrahs for a free NCL cruise).

 

Any info would be great. Thanks.

You know, I can't remember ever seeing a Baccarat game on a cruise ship.

No replies. I guess there are no bacc players on this board. I saw on the Pearl brochure that there was bacc. If that's the case, maybe there is only one table.

On the Star they had a dual table, one side for Pai Gow and the for Baccarat. I only played Pia gow. But you have to ask the pit boss to see if they will open the table for you. If you don't see it, please ask. I have had to ask on my last 5 cruises on NCL to play Pai Gow. Got turned down for 3 days on our last cruise, not enough dealers to deal the game.:)

Tom - thanks for the reply. I just came back from the Pearl and did not find any baccarat tables or paigow. I was thinking of asking the pit boss to open one but I didn't. Maybe I saved a lot of money that way?? ;)

 

Anyways, I couldn't believe the casino was so small. I wasn't expecting a full blown casino like Vegas but I would have thought it would be bigger with more tables and slots. Oh well.

not on Carnival. On some NCL ships?
