In live dealer games, a live video stream is broadcast from a professional studio via camera. The dealer deals real cards, spins the roulette wheel or rolls dice — and players can see everything on their screen.
Each round has a set time window to place bets. Once the time is up, no more bets can be placed. The result of a win or loss is shown on screen immediately, and winnings are added to your account right away.
The studios of Evolution, Pragmatic Play Live and Ezugi use physical equipment rather than a random number generator (RNG) — so each round's outcome is entirely independent. You can also chat with the dealer during each session, which gives the feel of a real casino.
Live games usually have a set minimum bet amount. It is a good idea to check each table's betting limits before you start.
