In Baccarat, the shoe refers to the device used to hold and dispense the playing cards. It ensures fair and efficient card distribution during the game. The shoe contains multiple decks of cards, typically 6 to 8 decks, although the number can vary depending on the casino.

Here's how the shoe is dealt in Baccarat:

Initial Cards: At the beginning of each round, the dealer places the required number of decks of cards into the shoe. The cards are shuffled to ensure randomness and then placed inside the shoe.

 Dealing: Once the shoe is prepared, the dealer, known as the "caller," begins the dealing process. The caller draws cards from the shoe and places them face down on the designated areas for the player and banker hands on the Baccarat table.

 Player and Banker Hand: The caller deals two cards face down to both the player and the banker. These initial cards determine the starting point for each hand's total value.

 Additional Cards (if needed): Based on the predetermined drawing rules of Baccarat, additional cards may be drawn for the player and/or banker hands. The caller follows these rules, and the drawing of the cards is automatic and not influenced by player decisions.
