Introduction
Tiger No Commission Baccarat is a commission-free baccarat variant that pays 1 to 2 on a winning banker total of six. The game can be found at the Marina Bay Sands in Singapore. What sets it apart is that it adds five new side bets, all of them high house edge sucker bets. This page explains all the rules and breaks down the odds of the new bets the game brings to baccarat.
Rules
As usual for baccarat games, I capitalize the names of bets, including Player and Banker, and use lower case for the people playing the game, to avoid confusion.
- Tiger No Commission Baccarat follows the standard drawing rules as in conventional baccarat, which I will assume the reader is already familiar with.
- The 'Nepal variant' of Commission-Free Baccarat is followed on winning Banker bets, in which wins pay 1 to 1, except a winning total of six pays 1 to 2.
- As in conventional baccarat, the Player bet pays 1 to 1 and the Tie bet pays 8 to 1.
- The following side bets are added:
- Tiger Pair — This bet shall win if the Player and or Banker hand form for a pair in the initial two cards, according to the pay table below.
- Tiger — This bet shall win if the Banker hand has a winning total of six, according to the pay table below.
- Small Tiger — Pays 22 to 1 only if the Banker has a winning two-card total of six.
- Big Tiger — Pays 50 to 1 only if the Banker has a winning three-card total of six.
- Tiger Tie — Pays 35 to 1 only if the hand ends in a 6-6 tie.
Following is the pay table for the Tiger Pair bet. Wins are on a 'to one' basis.

Rules of Play
- Each player will place their bets on either Player or Banker. Regardless of whether a player placed a wager on the Player line or the Banker line, that player may place a wager on any or all Bonus Bets.
- Once all wagers are placed, the house dealer deals one card to the right and one card to the left, one by one in rotation, until each hand has a total of two cards each. All cards are dealt face-down.
- The hand is then completed following standard Baccarat drawing rules for Player and Banker.
- After the Baccarat hand is finished, each bet is resolved.
- Winning Player or Banker bets are paid even money. Losing bets are taken.
- No commission is taken on winning Banker bets. If the Banker wins with a three-card draw to 7 then all Banker bets push.
- Tiger 7 Bonus Bet is paid 40 to 1 when the Banker wins with a three-card 7.
- Ox 6 Bonus Bet is paid 40 to 1 when the Player wins with a three-card 6.
- The Kill bet wins 30 to 1 in two different scenarios:
- When the Tiger Bonus bet loses with a three-card Banker 7
- When theåÊOx Bonus bet loses with a three-card Player 6
- All side bets lose in a tie except the Kill bet which wins in the following scenarios:
- Both Player and Banker hands tie with three-card totals of 6 or 7
- The Player’s three-card 6 ties the Banker’s two-card 6
- The Player’s two-card 7 ties the Banker’s three-card 7
