What is the favoured game of James Bond?
Baccarat is the favoured game of James Bond, the fictional secret agent created by Ian Fleming. Bond plays the game in numerous novels, most notably his 1953 debut, Casino Royale. It is also featured in several filmed versions of the novels; Dr. No, Thunderball, On Her Majesty's Secret Service, For Your Eyes Only; and GoldenEye. In the 2006 movie adaptation of Casino Royale, baccarat is replaced by Texas hold 'em poker, largely due to the poker boom at the time of filming.
