In the review thread, Justin took umbrage with my criticism of substituting poker for baccarat, so I will respond here.
Justin, poker may be "all the rage" now, but I still find it hard to believe that it would be the centerpiece of a high stakes game in a ritzy European casino. It would have taken less than 30 seconds to explain Baccarat especially since it is a cousin (game wise) of 21 which most in the American audience are familiar with.
In the end, though, this is just a nit.
