The Bead Plate Road is so named as originally, in land casinos, a tray or plate would be provided to players and they would record the results of each round by placing different colored beads into it. A winning Banker hand is recorded with red, a winning Player hand is recorded with Blue, and ties are recorded with green.
Usually, the Bead Road baccarat has at least six rows and twelve columns, meaning that it can record the result of at least seventy hands. Players begin in the top left corner and move down one row at a time. When the bottom of the column is reached, then players start again at the top of the next column to the right.
The Perfect Pairs side bet can also be recorded on the Bead Plate. If the Banker is dealt a pair, it is recorded with a red dot in the upper left corner of the cell while a Player pair is recorded with a blue dot in the lower right corner. (資料來源 )
