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.
