Live casino

Real dealers, streamed to your screen

Live casino sits between classic RNG tables and a physical pit: a human dealer, a camera, and rules enforced by the studio and the UK licence.

How it works

Studios run physical roulette wheels, card shoes and game-show sets. Video streams to your browser or app while you place bets in a side panel. Outcomes come from the physical game — not a slot-style random number generator — though side bets and some interfaces still use software for bookkeeping.

What UK licensing adds

On a UKGC-licensed brand the live product must meet the same player-protection bar as slots: age checks, safer-gambling tools, and fair presentation. Chat is moderated; under-18s are not allowed. If you have self-excluded via GamStop, licensed live tables are included in that block.

What to look for

  • Table limits that match your budget — min and max stakes are usually shown before you sit.
  • Studio providers you recognise (Evolution and similar partners appear across many UK lobbies).
  • Stable connection: live video is heavier than a simple slot; mobile data can stutter.
  • Clear access to deposit limits from the same account menu you use for slots.

On our shortlist

Ladbrokes and Midnite both surface live lobbies with mainstream table games. Happy Tiger and Casushi keep roulette and blackjack findable without a huge sportsbook wrapper. Voodoo Dreams leans studio-led on slots but still carries live tables from known partners. Ken Howells offers a tighter overall catalogue — check the live tab before assuming depth.
