The commission on banker bets, typically around 5%, directly impacts the long-term house edge in baccarat. Without this commission, the banker bet would have a lower house edge compared to the player bet, making it the most favorable option for players. However, the 5% commission is imposed to maintain the casino’s advantage. With the commission, the house edge on the banker bet is about 1.06%, which is slightly lower than the player bet’s edge of around 1.24%. This small difference makes the banker bet statistically the better option over the long term, despite the commission.
