Live Casino Sites

The big difference between a Live Roulette game or a normal online roulette game is that with a Live Roulette game you see the Dealer throwing the ball in the wheel, calling out the winning number and hear the dealer calling out the normal terms. In a normal online roulette game everything is decided by a computer system and it's more difficult to trust this system.

With the Live Roulette game you can actually chat with the other players and the Dealer and in some Live Casinos you can see other players placing bets like you do online. You are playing together with these normal players and the Dealer is handling both the online as the offline players. Next to that you can experience a great atmosphere like you are in a real casino playing roulette

How the Live Roulette works

The Casino will send a live video feed of the game to your computer. The feed is coming from the webcams above and near the roulette table and is sent to you via the casino server. Most of the times a camera is above the roulette wheel so you can see the ball falling on the winning number. When the dealer calls 'place your bets' you will see a view of the dealer and you can place your bets by clicking on the numbers or side bets. When the Dealer calls 'No more bets please' then you won't be able to place any chips anymore on the table. The Dealer will start to spin the wheel and throws the ball inside. Then the camera position will change to view the roulette wheel. This process is like a normal casino, but now you are home behind your computer sitting in a comfortable situation.

When the ball ends up on the winning number it will show on your screen and if you won you will get the winnings on your balance. The Dealer or any Supervisor will type the number in their computer system so it will show on your screen or the roulette has special sensors which automatically reports the winning number.

The chat option is a very nice feature which enables you to chat with the Dealer and with the other players. You won't be able to chat with the players who are actually playing in the normal casino, but only with the other online players. The Dealer can type or call the answers to your questions and if you have a very interactive dealer, you can get nice communications.

At most live casinos you will see a table with the last numbers falling as winning numbers. You can see which number are falling a lot and some players adjust their strategy and choices based on this table. 

The Roulette game

The Live Roulette rules and game play is the same as in a land based casino or online casino. You start with placing your bets and the Dealer will start the roulette wheel. The ball can stop on one of the 36 or 37 numbers depending if you play the European or American Roulette game.

To learn to play roulette you basically need to know the different bets which are possible on the table. Every bet you place has a different pay-out and chances to win. So you have to know the basics of Roulette to understand the game.

Once you know the basics it comes to experience and practise. Some players always bet on the same number, their lucky number. Other players have a certain strategy and other players just place their bets without any system. It's up to you what do you think will work the best.
