Michael Jordan loves his basketball and his baccarat.

The most famous baccarat player that we know of is Michael Jordan. Whether or not he still plays is up in the air, as he did have a bout with problem gambling in the 90’s. Jordan bet large sums for years on the baccarat tables. He was once spotted in the pit at 4:00am, only hours before Game 2 of the Eastern Conference Finals.

Jackie Chan seems to be around the game of baccarat a lot. He had a movie that took place around the shady baccarat pits, and now there’s a slot game with him as the theme.

There are a few baccarat players that have become famous for writing books on the subject. Lyle Stewart has won the baccarat world championship multiple times, and is considered the leader in baccarat strategy. Frank Scoblete wrote The Baccarat Battle Book, a best seller on the subject. He has sold more books on gambling than any American author.
