For many years, the biggest complaint about online casinos was that they lacked the authentic, social atmosphere of a physical building.

This incredible innovation allows you to experience the exact pace and tension of a Las Vegas table from your living room sofa.

How the Technology Actually Works

These games are broadcast from massive, highly secure television studios designed explicitly to look like high-end VIP casino floors.

The OCR software instantly reads the card and translates the physical action into digital data on the player’s screen without any delay.

• Running these studios is incredibly expensive, which is why you rarely find ‘micro-stakes’ or free demo versions of live dealer games
• The video feeds require a strong, stable internet connection; if you disconnect, the game will play your hand automatically according to basic strategy
• The cards used have a slightly larger printed index (font) to ensure they are easily readable by the cameras and the players at home

The New Era of Interactive Live Gaming

These game shows combine the thrill of gambling with the high-energy production value of popular TV shows like ‘The Price is Right.’

Live game shows have effectively created a brand new category of gambling, proving incredibly popular with the younger Twitch generation.

If you miss the social energy of the casino floor but don’t want to leave your house, the live casino tab is where you belong.
