The first casino in France opened in Monaco in 1863, the famous Monté Carlo Casino. However, people's passion for gambling began at the court of King Louis XVI, where the French became fascinated by these somewhat dangerous games.
Most of the first casinos opened their doors in the early 1900s. It was also at this time that the Barrière group established itself as the benchmark for resorts and gaming halls.

Barrière casinos are proud to be the leading casinos in France when it comes to poker. Texas Holdem is the most popular version of the game.
To play poker, all you have to do is place a bet to start the game. The croupier deals the cards, followed by a series of betting rounds, interspersed with a flop. The game ends when one or more players reveal their cards. This is a game of combinations.
You can find a detailed explanation of the game on the Barrière Casino website before you go for it for real.
