Live
Dealers at Microgaming

Microgaming is easily one of the best
known online casino software providers
out there. They are probably the
largest, and if not they are probably
not far off. They have some of the most
popular games in the online casino
industry, and really their only short
coming for some is that they do not
offer their games in the United States.
When the Unlawful Internet Gambling
Enforcement Act, or UIGEA, was passed
they chose to leave the online casino
industry in the US until it was
legalized again.
But for those that are able to play at
the online casino they have changed
their line up just a little and are now
offering live dealers for their baccarat
and roulette players. They know that
some of their players were getting
nervous about playing online because
there were some problems with some
online casinos with cheating and what
not.
So live dealers have been introduced as
a way of making the game a little more
fun and to give their players a sense of
security. They had initially started
with just a few, but their players liked
it so much that they are expanding their
offerings. In addition to the roulette
and baccarat they are going to offer
blackjack as well, which is something
they have never tried before. They say
that they have heard from their players
that they really prefer the live dealers
to the random computer dealing – and all
of the sites that use it say that they
agree with the assessment. It is
definitely making their players happier.
They are also adding a wait list option
to get into a game. You sign up and when
there is an available space the computer
will notify you and you can choose to
sit down or pass. They are also adding
spectator betting so that the players
that are watching can bet on the players
that are actually seated at the table.
Each of these changes simply makes
Microgaming even better than before –
and solidifies their listing as one of
the most popular online casino software
providers in the world.
