what is a live dealer?
Of all of the casinos on the internet, Playtech casinos are the only ones to offer live dealers for some of their table games. Blackjack is by far the most popular casino game offered featuring a live dealer. An online casino that features games with live dealers will have a live tables tab on the menu found in the lobby screen. Simply click on that tab to see a list of tables featuring the live dealer games for that particular casino. You will then join the rest of the players at whichever table you choose. Golden Palace is the most popular Playtech casino and there you will often find as many as 20 different blackjack tables with live dealers.
Once seated at the table of your choice, the screename of each of the other players at the table will be displayed. At the top left side of your screen there will be a very large box that shows you the dealer and the table game you are playing. In the right corner you will have what is known as a talk box, where you can chat with the dealer or with the other players at the table. You can also just watch everybody else talk if you don‘t feel like chatting yourself. There is usually an option to join another table if the table you want is full, although you may have to wait for a seat to open. Since live dealer games work like those in a land-based casino there are a limited number of seats.
