How does it work
The whole concept is pretty easy to implement. The dealers broadcast from a studio or a real brick & mortar casino and the gamesters watch the stream, place bets, and communicate with the dealer using PC or mobile device.
At the same time, all the financial part of the game (processing the bets, payout) is automated and processed by the soft not a dealer, which is the top difference between live and land-based casinos.
Live dealer streaming & technology
Due to the OCR technology (optical camera recognition) the video stream is transformed into the meaningful digital data piece and is available for the users as a short link. Meantime the data is stored on-premise or in the cloud and seeds the video archive.
Each table in the studio has the Game Control Unit (GCU for short), which has a built-in scanner or sensor and encodes the data regarding the played cards or winning numbers into a digital format so that the soft could process it and reflect in the UI. So basically the gambler not only sees “12 red” winning on the video but also gets a notification if his bet won or not (plus the auto payout).
The engineering staff working in a separate room controls everything happening in the studio and the soft’s performance. The staff monitoring the games’ activity and analyzing the data received also works separately. Their main goal is to find the potential frauds and the gamblers violating those rules.
Games
For example, Asia Live Tech is famous for its Asian inventions like Xoc Dia, Sic Bo, Fan-Tan, Dragon Tiger, Belangkai, and Betgames TV won the gamblers’ hearts with the popular lottery games (Lucky 5, Lucky 7).
That’s why many operators add several live dealer solutions created by different providers to their portfolio. And with Softgamings it’s easier than ever if you order the “Live Casino Bundle” uniting the top live dealer games from the most famous providers!
Difference between live casino and other casino games
Live casino is a real catch for the gamblers that don’t 100% trust the modern gambling soft and doubt its honesty. Due to the fact all of the actions during the live dealer game are performed by a real person (just like in brick and mortar casinos) the final result is absolutely random and doesn’t depend on the soft.
Advantages
- Live game is as close as you can get to the land-based casino experience while playing when and where it’s comfortable for you via basically any device (from smartphone to TV).
- The result doesn’t depend on RNG algorithms, which attracts the gamblers that aren’t 100% sure ordinary online gambling is fair enough.
- An ability to interact with the dealer and other gamblers engages the player and keeps him in the game.
- The combination of multitasking performance and windows between each game makes it easier to play several different games simultaneously.
- Live casino solutions have more branding and cross-selling options than the standard gambling soft.

How to integrate live dealer games into your casino?

The clear benefits include a quick unified API integration that will also cost a lot less than a separate integration of the games created by each provider.The leader in the live dealer casino gaming sector is certainly Evolution, and here’s why its integration through our platform will immediately boost your casino’s success.
Evolution Gaming has found a way to cement its position as the number one live casino provider. In December 2020, the company finalised the purchase of NetEnt which initiated the total reorganisation of the two giants of the industry. First of all, a rebranding process happened and as a result, Evolution Gaming is now known simply as Evolution.
Under the deal, NetEnt will continue to release games under its famous brand but its focus will shift from live casino gaming to slots and other products.
Even though the acquisition was the main focus of the company, Evolution found a way to launch more innovative gaming solutions, such as the world’s first Live Craps game set in an authentic underground speakeasy-style studio which considerably improves the existing portfolio, and thus your casino’s gaming offer.
