These and other companies are producing their own takes on classic live dealer games and experimenting with new, entertaining live dealer experiences. Secondly, the interest in online casino games is also reflected in the growing catalogues of <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.betmgm.ca\/en\/casino\/c\/livedealer\"><strong>live dealer casino games<\/strong><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> available at online casinos.<\/span>\r\n\r\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">But why are players increasingly interested in this category of online casino games? Is it a novelty, or is there more to it? Learn more in this post about the reasons why online players prefer the live-dealer online casino experience.<\/span>\r\n<h2><b>The Reasons Why Online Players Prefer Live Dealer Casino Games<\/b><\/h2>\r\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">There are many reasons why players may prefer <\/span><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.betmgm.ca\/en\/casino\/blog\/casino\/live-dealer-vs-online-games\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">live dealer games over standard online casino games<\/a><\/strong><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, including:\u00a0<\/span>\r\n<ul>\r\n \t<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Convenience<\/span><\/li>\r\n \t<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Authenticity and real-world atmosphere<\/span><\/li>\r\n \t<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Greater perceived trust and transparency<\/span><\/li>\r\n \t<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Social interaction<\/span><\/li>\r\n \t<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Tech-enhanced experience<\/span><\/li>\r\n \t<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Variety and game-show experiences<\/span><\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n<h3><b>Convenience<\/b><\/h3>\r\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Regardless of whether players are wagering on traditional RNG (random number generator) online casino games or live dealer casino games, there can be no doubt that online casino gaming offers a greater degree of convenience in all categories of games.\u00a0<\/span>\r\n\r\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This is because players can access their favourite online casino titles on desktop, tablet, and mobile devices from the convenience of their homes or while they\u2019re on the go (as long as there\u2019s an adequate internet connection), eliminating in the process the extra steps that come with visiting a brick-and-mortar casino.<\/span>\r\n\r\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Also, all these games, including many live dealer casino titles, are available 24\/7, giving players another reason to take advantage of this category of games.<\/span>\r\n<h3><b>Authenticity and Real-World Atmosphere<\/b><\/h3>\r\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Players are also drawn to live dealer casino games because of the way in which they replicate the casino floor experience. Multi-camera studios designed specifically for live dealer casino games stream all the action in HD and 4K, showing the player every shuffle and spin as if they were there in person.\u00a0<\/span>\r\n\r\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Uniformed, licensed dealers hosting the action and interacting in real time further enhance the experience by reinforcing the real-world setting of each live dealer game.<\/span>\r\n<h3><b>Greater Perceived Trust and Transparency<\/b><b>\r\n<\/b><\/h3>\r\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Despite the fact that there\u2019s plenty of information out there on how RNG games are audited for fairness, some players are still not convinced that they can trust an algorithm to faithfully reproduce the element of luck that exists in the real world. Live dealer games offer a way to experience online casino games without the involvement of any RNG elements.\u00a0<\/span>\r\n\r\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Players who are still unsure about the trustworthiness of these games can rest assured that the same strict fairness regulations are applied to all casino games, including live dealer titles. In Ontario and Alberta, all legal online casinos, including BetMGM Casino, are licensed and regulated by the Alcohol and Gaming Commission (AGCO) to ensure that players are protected.<\/span>\r\n<h3><b>Social Interaction<\/b><\/h3>"},{"acf_fc_layout":"large_image","image_options":"inline-image","image":38480,"image_link":"","caption_1":"","image_2":null,"caption_2":"","image_2_link":null},{"acf_fc_layout":"paragraph","title_only":true,"content":"<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Another key benefit of live dealer games is the social element. Players can interact with the dealer via text, with the dealer responding in person and in real time. Players can also interact with each other, further enhancing the sense of community as players banter the way they would in a traditional casino environment.<\/span>\r\n<h3><b>Tech Enhancing the Experience<\/b><\/h3>\r\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Live dealer games have come a long way since they were first introduced to the online casino gaming audience. The original low-resolution streams have been replaced by fully-fledged, professionally-produced offerings.\u00a0<\/span>\r\n\r\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In casino game studios, this is driven by 4K multi-camera setups, better audio capture, improved digital player interfaces, devices that automatically capture dealers\u2019 actions, and more, while players can enjoy an enhanced experience thanks to faster internet speeds, devices with much more computing power, and improved display and audio hardware.\u00a0<\/span>\r\n<h3><b>Variety and Game-Show Experiences<\/b><\/h3>\r\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The final reason that explains some players' preference for live dealer casino games is the introduction of variety and game-show titles. Considering the popularity of variety and game shows on TV, it\u2019s no surprise that players are drawn to live dealer casino games that offer a similar experience. Whether it\u2019s classic lottery, wheel, pachinko, marble, or new and unique games, players get to feel like they\u2019re taking part in a real game show with great prize-winning potential.\u00a0<\/span>\r\n<h2><b>Examples of Live Dealer Casino Games<\/b><\/h2>\r\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Here are a few examples of popular online casino, live dealer games.\u00a0<\/span>\r\n<h3><b>Crazy Time<\/b><\/h3>"},{"acf_fc_layout":"large_image","image_options":"inline-image","image":38477,"image_link":"","caption_1":"","image_2":null,"caption_2":"","image_2_link":null},{"acf_fc_layout":"paragraph","title_only":true,"content":"<table>\r\n<tbody>\r\n<tr>\r\n<td><b>Software Provider<\/b><\/td>\r\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Evolution Group<\/span><\/td>\r\n<\/tr>\r\n<tr>\r\n<td><b>RTP<\/b><\/td>\r\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">96.08%*<\/span><\/td>\r\n<\/tr>\r\n<tr>\r\n<td><b>Volatility<\/b><\/td>\r\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">High<\/span><\/td>\r\n<\/tr>\r\n<tr>\r\n<td><b>Max Wager<\/b><\/td>\r\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">$500<\/span><\/td>\r\n<\/tr>\r\n<tr>\r\n<td><b>Max Win<\/b><\/td>\r\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">8,000\u201320,000x, depending on the stake<\/span><\/td>\r\n<\/tr>\r\n<\/tbody>\r\n<\/table>\r\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">* Note that the return to player (RTP) rate for this casino game may differ from one jurisdiction to another.<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\r\n<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The Crazy Time casino game offers players a live dealer experience with regular wins as well as four bonus games with much larger payouts.
