The table layout for Baccarat typically consists of the following elements:

1. Baccarat Table: The table is usually large and oval-shaped, accommodating up to 14 players.

2. Player Positions: The table has designated positions for players, usually numbered from 1 to 15, excluding the number 13. Each position has three areas for betting: one for the Player hand, one for the Banker hand, and one for Tie bets.

3. Dealer Position: At one end of the table, there is a designated area for the dealer to manage the game.

4. Chip Rack: The chip rack is where the dealer keeps the different denominations of chips used for betting.
 
5. Commission Box: Baccarat is a game where a commission is taken on winning Banker bets. The commission box, also known as the "rake", is where players place their commission payment. This box typically sits in the center of the table, near the dealer.

6. Shoe: The shoe is a device that holds the decks of cards used in the game. It is typically located to the right of the dealer. The shoe allows for efficient and fair distribution of the cards to the players.

7. Cut Card: The cut card is a plastic card inserted into the shoe to mark the point at which the dealer will reshuffle the cards. It prevents players from predicting when a new shoe will be used.

8. Betting Area: The betting area for the Player, Banker, and Tie bets are clearly marked on the table. Each area has individual circles or squares where players can place their bets.

9. Payout Areas: The payout areas are located adjacent to the Player, Banker, and Tie betting circles. These areas indicate the payoff for each type of bet. The payout for a winning Player bet is usually 1:1, while a winning Banker bet is typically paid at 1:1 with a 5% commission deducted. The payout for a winning Tie bet varies but is usually the highest at 8:1 or 9:1.

10. Card Dispensers: Some Baccarat tables have built-in card dispensers for the dealer to easily distribute cards to the players during the game.

11. Scoreboard: Baccarat tables often have electronic scoreboards displaying the outcome of previous hands, such as the results of Player, Banker, and Tie bets. These scoreboards help players keep track of the trends and make informed decisions.

12. Drink Holders: Many Baccarat tables have built-in drink holders to provide convenience for players when enjoying refreshments during the game.

It's worth noting that the layout of the Baccarat table may vary slightly from casino to casino, but the core elements mentioned above are typically present.
 
On the table, there is a designated betting area for each player, where they can set their chips in order to put wagers. Usually, numbers that connote to the player's seat at the table are used to designate these locations.
