I wrote out a while back, a bunch of B&M slang we all commonly use at the tables.  I will try to find it tonight. 

But, as far as here (USA), we normally say, "Line" instead of "Side" the highest majority the times.

And for an Ace, 2 or 3, a one line card.

Played well over 36,311 shoes of baccarat since I started playing at B&M USA casinos.

THE PURPOSE OF GAMING IS TO WIN!

"Don't say it's a winning hand until you are getting paid for it".

Played numerous properties in Las Vegas, Reno, Southern California, Atlantic City, Connecticut, South Florida, The South/Southeast as well as most areas of The Midwest.

Baccarat, actually a mixture of Watergate, attacking the Gotti Family and the famous ear biting Tyson fight leading to disqualification and a near riot.  Bac has all that & more.
