26 WGM #58 2018/05 wgm8.com 游戏 PLAY 免佣百家乐诞生 如果可以不支付佣金岂不是很棒？这正是Rakesh Wadhwa先生1987年时的想法，当时他在斯里兰卡经营 一家娱乐场。一个叫“免佣百家乐”的游戏随之诞生。 Wadhwa发明了这个版本，摒弃掉押庄赢时的所有佣金！ 很明显这为玩家带来巨大优势。为维持平衡，新游戏中有 一个规则，如果押庄赢且庄为六，该投注的赔率仅为1/2， 也就是说赢金只是投注额的一半。 如此一来，娱乐场是在约10%押庄赢的情况中拿走 50%的佣金，而不是在所有押庄赢的情况中拿走5%的佣 金。 这种押庄赢（庄六点）彩金为50%的情况每20手牌出 现一次。其余时候，如果你押庄赢，赔率都是1/1，与押闲 赢一样，没有佣金。如果你只准备打一枪就跑，避免押中 庄六点，那么你的赢金要比在传统百家乐赌桌要多，因为 押庄赢时不付任何佣金。 尽管免佣百家乐的娱乐场赢率比传统百家乐略高，但 这种差别需要玩数天甚至数周才会表现出来，而且是概率 显著时。对中短期玩家来说，只玩一两天百家乐，赢率上 几乎无差。然而，免佣百家乐和传统百家乐相比有很大优 势，会迅速明显地体现出来：每小时派发更多手牌，错误 少，无需处理小筹码，最重要的是，在多数押庄赢的投注 上可以拿到100%的回报。 NOCOMMISSIONBACCARAT IS BORN Wouldn’t it be great if we could simply do away with the commission? That’s exactly what Mr Rakesh Wadhwa thought way back in 1987 whilst operating a casino in Sri Lanka. And so the game of “No Commission Baccarat” (NCB), also known as “Non-Commission Baccarat”, was born. Wadhwa invented a game that simply eliminated all commission on banker bets! Obviously this gave a huge advantage to the players, so to redress the imbalance, the new game had a rule that if banker won with a total of precisely 6, the bet would only be paid at 1-2 – in other words, the winnings would only be half of the amount bet. Rather than taking a 5 percent commission on 100 percent of winning banker bets, the casino took a 50 percent “commission” on around 10 percent of winning banker bets. These 50 percent banker wins (with a banker total of 6) occur about once every 20 hands. The rest of the time, if you win on banker, you get paid even money just like you would on a winning player bet. No commission at all. If you play a short hit-and-run session and avoid the banker win on 6, you generally win more than you would have won if that same session were played on a traditional baccarat table, because you don’t pay any commission on your winning banker bets. While it is true the house advantage on NCB is a bit higher than traditional baccarat, it takes many days or even weeks of play for that difference to manifest itself with any significant degree of probability. For the short to medium-term player, playing just a day or two of baccarat, the difference in edge cannot be detected by the naked eye. However, NCB has significant advantages over its traditional cousin that will be instantly obvious: more hands per hour, less mistakes, no smash to deal with and, most importantly of all, a full 100 percent payout on most winning banker bets.
