The most famous baccarat gambler of all time was not even a real person, but a fictional character. He was, of course, Secret Agent 007 - James Bond. A high-stakes game of baccarat has become a James Bond trademark as much as his famous martinis - shaken not stirred.
The first James Bond novel, Casino Royale by Ian Fleming (1953) concerned a baccarat game between Bond and bad guy Le Chiffre upon which the fate of the free world depended. Bond also played baccarat in many of the movies, including Dr. No, Thunderball, the 1967 version of Casino Royale, On Her Majesty's Secret Service, For Your Eyes Only, and Golden Eye.
For many people, watching James Bond movies was their first introduction to the exotic game of baccarat and was their inducement to start playing baccarat online.

Poker to feature in Bond-themed evening - 19th December 2008
Hebden Bridge Picture house is hosting a Bond-themed evening on December 20th.
Those who attend will watch a screening of Daniel Craig's latest outing as 007 Quantum of Solace and then move to B@r Place for a casino night, reports the Halifax Courier.
Customers have been invited to turn up in their tuxedos and cocktail dresses, or even dressed as their favourite Bond characters.
There will be alcohol-free cocktails at the cinema as well as canapes and a live jazz band.
After the screening poker fans will be able to hit the felt, where they will be entertained by a video DJ.
While poker is most commonly associated with Craig's Bond because it made up a large part of the story in Casino Royale - his first outing - there will also be roulette and blackjack.
The first glimpse of Bond in the inaugural film of the franchise Dr No sees him sitting at a table playing Chemin de Fer with Sylvia Trench at Les Ambassadeurs Club in London.
