The Italian word "baccarat" means "zero" because most of the cards then hold a point value of zero-tens, Jacks, Queens and Kings of all suits. According to early stories about Baccarat the game appeared long ago and it is based on Etruscan ritual of the nine gods, who prayed to a blonde virgin on their tiptoes waiting for her to throw a nine-sided die. Her fate depended on the result of the die. If an eight or a nine was thrown, she would become the priestess. If 6 or 7 was rolled the virgin was prohibited from any further religious activities. If any other number was rolled she could walk into the sea.
