Sands China has opened a new high-limit baccarat zone at the Londoner Grand Casino, one of two casinos inside The Londoner Macao resort on the Cotai Strip. The operator confirmed the launch to GGRAsia, with the area having gone live in May 2026.
The new section contains 8 smart baccarat tables and sits beside the Crystal Jade La Mian Xiao Long Bao restaurant inside the casino. Minimum bets at the tables are set at either HKD3,000 or HKD5,000 for main wagers such as banker or player hands.
That puts the zone well above the main casino floor, where most baccarat tables carry minimums between HKD1,000 and HKD2,000. The higher entry point positions the area as a premium option for players looking for bigger-stakes play.
Side Bet Options
The 8 tables in the new zone come with a range of side bet choices. These include tie, Lucky 6, Small and Big Lucky 6, Lucky 7, 2-card Lucky 7, 3-card Lucky 7, Super Lucky 7, and pair bets.
Two side bets — Monkey no Monkey and Pairs+ — are not offered at the high-limit tables. GGRAsia noted both can be found on the main floor of the Londoner Grand Casino. Those two bets were approved by Macau regulators in late March and had been promoted by Sands as being pioneered by the company.
How It Compares to the Sister Casino
The Londoner Macao complex also contains a second venue, the Londoner Casino, which operates as an associated gaming establishment. On the first floor of that casino, live baccarat table minimums range mostly from HKD2,000 to HKD3,000.
That means the new high-limit zone sits above the entry point of both Londoner venues. The gap in minimums shows the new area is aimed at a more exclusive group of baccarat players within the resort.
The Londoner Grand Casino only opened in September 2024, replacing the former Pacifica casino. The new high-limit zone adds to a gaming floor that already features smart baccarat tables and multiple betting formats.
Sands China has not announced any further changes to the property. The main floor remains in place with lower minimum stakes for regular players.
The high-limit area is now operating and forms part of the broader casino offering at The Londoner Macao, which is one of Sands China’s key properties on the Cotai Strip.
The Cotai Strip is the main hub for casino gaming in Macau, home to several large integrated resorts operated by global gaming companies.
Sands China continues to hold a gaming concession in Macau, where it operates multiple properties alongside the Londoner Macao.
