Live casino is a real-time, online gambling experience which features real dealers dealing cards or spinning the roulette wheel for players. This is all made possible by special studios that are designed specifically to stream high-quality video over the internet. This video is then sent to players through their browsers or mobile devices so that they can enjoy the games as if they were playing them in person at a brick and mortar casino.

Live casinos typically offer a wide variety of table games that include blackjack, roulette and baccarat. However, these can be quite complicated and are usually reserved for more experienced gamers who can handle the high stakes involved. Despite their complex nature, it is still very easy to play the games in a live casino as you can see the dealer through a monitor on your screen and use a digital interface to place your bets.

When it comes to the technology used to run a live casino, different software providers will either license their games and provide them directly to the online casinos or they will actually operate the tables in their own studios. The latter option is often the preferred route for online casinos as it allows them to brand their games and tailor the live experience to their own needs. The studios themselves are typically large and can accommodate many of the same features you would find in a brick and mortar casino including atmospheric lighting, cutting edge multi-camera technology, audio and IT.
