So I remember watching some old Jason Sample "Built by Baccarat" videos from a couple years ago and he used to talk about "fries" or something of that sort. I just tried to go back and his original curious are gone. I guess after his whole saga when he got exposed as an ex felon and taking about gambling he took his videos down. Anyways, I think the "fries" mean "hashmarks". Here is something I found which I think is what Mikki means.Originally Posted by ReloadSports
Yes it sounds bizarre to allow betting for three hands ahead of them being dealt. Maybe in some far off third world casino but not when there’s an actual gaming commission involved.
I wasn’t sure what he meant by “Hashmarks” either when I heard him mention this.
I would have to go back and listen, but at one point he was talking about placing bets for future hands out on the table (Which is clearly illegal). He said he would place his current bet say in seat 2, then at the same time place a bet on seat 3 and seat 4, but he said that the dealer knew that seat 3 and seat 4 bets were for the following 2 rounds, and not the current round. Then he said they put a stop to it. What casino would allow this in the first place I have no idea.
Anyway, if he was talking about the “hash marks” during this time, he may have been referring to the parallel marks that separate each seats betting spots.
I highlighted them in the picture below:
Someone please correct me if I'm wrong as I've only played Baccarat a few times.
