Baccarat review

No Commission Baccarat: bets, payouts and RTP

No Commission Baccarat is Evolution's baccarat without the 5% Banker commission: a Banker win pays 1:1, except a Banker win on 6, which pays 1:2.

The Super 6 side bet pays 15:1 when Banker wins with 6. No Commission Speed Baccarat uses the same rules at Speed pace.

Our verdict: Simpler payouts, slightly worse Banker odds. If you only bet Banker, the standard table returns more.

How it works

How a round of No Commission Baccarat works

One round

  1. Bet Back Player, Banker or Tie, plus any side bets, while the timer runs.
  2. The deal Two cards each to Player and Banker; the totals count only the last digit.
  3. Third cards Fixed rules decide whether either hand draws a third card.
  4. Settlement The total closest to 9 wins.

When the third card is drawn

Nobody makes a decision in baccarat: these fixed rules decide every third card. A total of 8 or 9 on the first two cards is a natural and ends the hand.
