In the last decades, in western casinos, slot machines have been replacing classical table games operated by croupiers at a steady pace. This is not the case in Macau were the dominance of one table game, baccarat, remains unchallenged. The share of slot machines remains extremely small. But it is not to say that Macau’s supply of gambling games is immune of changes. On the contrary, one can witness a new trend: baccarat becomes by itself partially an electronic game. It is true that attempts to promote 100% electronic versions of baccarat met with a failure: for reasons connected with the long tradition of gambling games in Macau, the total absence of a croupier is deemed inacceptable. The outcome of such a situation has been the emergence since 2010 of a “live bacarrat”: a croupier is making the draw which is filmed and broadcasted in different rooms of the same casino, where the players use individual electronic devices to place their stakes
