Do you remember what the most popular mobile/desktop game was some decades back?

Did you just say Snake?

Well, time has changed — along with the gaming dynamics.

Advancement in technology and the aspirations of individuals to bet and get entertained have made it possible to bring the authentic casino world to the online platform.

iGaming brought the limits of gambling wide open, and before long carried its potential right into players' home living rooms. Slot machines, roulette, lottery, and live-dealer casinos rank among the most in-demand offerings.

What Is a Live Dealer Casino?

The online alternative to a brick-and-mortar casino, the live dealer casino is an iGaming website where players can get the thrill of live games broadcast straight into their phones.

Most significant reasons why gamblers love live dealer casinos:

  • Trained dealers with live interaction
  • Real tables from casinos streamed in HD quality
  • Greater confidence and clarity compared to virtual-only games

For everyone wondering what a live dealer casino is, these are live games presented by real dealers who handle the action in real time. For roulette and blackjack, players receive real cards from dealers, and the roulette wheel is spun in real time, providing a real and immersive experience.

The majority of players like the traditional casino experience offered with live dealer games. They are also able to monitor the game fairness and reduce the chance of cheating.

How Do Live Dealer Casinos Work?

Providers of games transmit their live dealer casino games from studios around the world. These studios feature some in the Philippines, Spain, Costa Rica, Ireland, Malta, Latvia, the USA, and so forth.

These developers usually offer two possibilities for online casinos: they license their games "as is" or rent tables in their live-streaming studios.

Training the Live Dealers

The dealers need to undergo intensive training in order to become game rule experts and possess a thorough understanding of current gambling legislation. Training also addresses such issues as player communication and creating a lively, natural casino atmosphere.

The live dealer tables are assisted by the dealers. The game is played live in various angles of the camera to give players a thrilling view of the action.

The dealers receive screens in front of them showing the game and the players' messages, allowing them to respond naturally and communicate face-to-face.

The live casino games' cameras are also equipped with OCR (Optical Character Recognition), which captures even minute information. The technology scans numbers, cards, and symbols during play and has them received straight to players' screens. 

Live dealer casino games have witnessed explosive expansion on the iGaming platform. Developers followed, entering this space, and profiting from it with innovative spins. Some of the most favored are:

Card Games

Live dealers also run live versions of some of the most popular games, such as blackjack, poker, baccarat, and its spin-off game Dragon Tiger. Poker variants such as Stud and Texas Hold'em are also very popular, and different types of blackjack such as Infinite Blackjack, Early Payout Blackjack, and Common Draw Blackjack.

Table Games

Sic Bo, dice wars, and craps are very well liked among live dealer casinos. European and American live roulette are offered by numerous providers. Slot players have live slot experiences offered by a few studios.

Lotteries

Live studios offer players a wide range of lotteries and similar games. Bingo, Lotto, and live Keno all feature real-time versions where players can experience the thrill of hearing the dealer call winning numbers in real time.

Other significant live lottery-style games include:

  • Wheel games
  • Dream Catcher
  • Crazy Time
  • Live Monopoly
  • Mega Wheel
  • Fortune Finder
