No commission baccarat house edge
The house edge for a baccarat variant that drops the standard 5% commission on winning Banker bets, with the exact figure depending on the rule that replaces it.

- The Banker house edge varies widely by variant: EZ Baccarat has 1.02%, while Tiger No Commission Baccarat can reach 16.12%. 25
- Regular baccarat's Banker edge is 1.06%; no-commission variants may be higher or lower depending on the compensating rule. 14
