Live casino is a fairly recent innovation

When online casinos first hit the gambling world there was no such thing as a live casino option and all online casino play was governed by random number generators but today practically all online casinos offer the live casino option although it must be said that not as many people play at the live casino as was probably initially imagined. The thinking behind live casino was that there could be a mistrust of the random number generators used at online casinos and therefore it would be better if casino players could actually see the roulette ball going round or the cards being dealt which could be achieved by having a special room set up with webcams. These rooms were generally established in Eastern European countries with attractive young croupiers to chat to whilst you are playing and to this day most are still located there. One of the exceptions can be found at All Irish Casino where the live casino option is in fact streamed from an actual casino in Malta although even then it is a separate room to protect the identity of the other casino players. It is also a fact that random number generators at major online casinos including all of those recommended on this site have very good controls in place to ensure that the results truly are random which often include external auditors. That particular reason for playing live casino has therefore been removed but if it is the chat that you like then live casino is still there. Casino games at live casino are limited to those which actually require a dealer or croupier and for this reason available casino games are generally only roulette, blackjack and occasionally baccarat or Caribbean stud so for all those thousands of online casino players who enjoy casino slots there is no advantage to live casino.
