The Vegasino live casino

The live sections

Eight tabs structure the dealer area. The classic game families each have their own, from the wheel to poker via cards and dice; added to these are a showcase of the Best live games, an International Tables tab, the Game Shows section and the Gold Saloon, exclusive to Vegasino.

The studios

Here is the breakdown of live games by studio, as shown in the lobby:

Pragmatic Live alone supplies almost half the offer. The international tables are hosted in German, Spanish, French and Italian, among other languages.

Roulette

Roulette is understood in seconds: you place your chips on the virtual layout, the dealer spins the ball, and the result appears on screen. The essential difference lies between the European wheel, with a single zero, and the American wheel, with a double zero that increases the house edge. On even-money bets, red or black, odd or even, always prefer a single-zero wheel.

The bets

Inside bets target one or a few neighbouring numbers and pay big; outside bets cover wide areas, columns, dozens or even chances, and pay less but more often. A strategy that increases the stake after every loss does not change the house edge: it only speeds up the consumption of your budget.

Blackjack

In blackjack, your decisions matter. Every hand asks the same question, what to do against the dealer's up card: basic strategy, which fits on a single chart, brings the casino's edge down to its lowest level. Live tables host several players at once, and each has limited time to decide. Practise first on the electronic version of the game, then move to live.

Insurance and side options

When the dealer shows an ace, insurance is offered to you. It is profitable only in rare cases and costs a lot over time. Side bets, such as pairs or three-card combinations, pay big but land rarely: treat them as entertainment, not as a way to improve your results.

Baccarat and dice

Baccarat is played by betting on the player, the banker or a tie. The banker wins slightly more often than the player; that is why banker wins usually carry a small commission. The tie pays a lot but comes up rarely. The Baccarat & Dice section also brings together dice games, with rules that are quick to grasp.

Game shows

Game shows turn the casino into a TV set, with a host, a big wheel and bonus rounds. Crazy Time, Dream Catcher and Monopoly are the best-known examples. The pace is more relaxed than at a classic table, but the house edge varies greatly depending on the segment you bet on. Watch a few rounds before playing to understand the payouts. Multiplier segments catch the eye, but they come up less often than numbered segments; spreading your stake across several segments smooths the results without changing the game's edge.

Live poker

The Poker section offers variants played against the house, not against other players. You receive your cards, the dealer theirs, and the best hand wins according to the rules of the chosen game. These tables suit those who like poker without wanting to face other players around a real table.

Roulette tournaments

The Tournaments section also hosts roulette competitions, alongside slot tournaments. The principle: your bets at participating tables earn you points, and the best-ranked share the prizes at the end of the period. Some tournaments are free or accessible with very small stakes. Each set of rules specifies which tables count and on what scale the points fall. As with any competition, do not let the leaderboard dictate your stake: play at the pace you had planned.

Live on mobile

No app is needed: Vegasino's adaptive web version works on phone and tablet, Android or iOS, and offers exactly the same services as the desktop version. The live tables are accessible there like the rest of the catalogue. On a small screen, prefer games with a simple interface, roulette or game shows, and keep multi-hand blackjack for a larger screen.

Bonus and cashback in the live area

The live area is therefore not the best place to complete bonus wagering. On the other hand, online cashback targets precisely the table regulars: it returns a share of what was lost over the week, in an almost immediately withdrawable form. And during wagering, no game round above €5.

Playing live well

• Decide on your budget and your unit stake before sitting down.
• Start with the minimum stake shown at the entrance to the table.
• Avoid doubling the stake after a loss: the house edge stays the same.
• Take breaks: live rounds follow one another quickly and time passes without you noticing.
• Play on a stable connection to avoid dropouts during a hand.
