Online Casinos Go Live
Party Gaming has announced that the online casino gambling group has launched a
live dealer format at the site’s casino and poker sites. The internet gambling
just continues to become more and more competitive as the online casinos release
new technology and new gaming formats to appeal to gamblers. Party Gaming is a
very prominent brand in the European market and the company has spent the past
nearly two year reestablishing its brand and developing a new player base after
exiting the US online gambling industry in late 2006. Part of the company’s
strategy to find a niche European market is fulfilled with the live dealer
agreement that Party Gaming secured with Evolution Gaming.
The CEO at Party Gaming, Jim Ryan, recently elaborated on the planned
implementation of the live dealer format at the company’s online casino. He
notes, “We believe that 'live casino' will gain us access to players who enjoy
and prefer the experience of watching croupiers dealing cards or spinning
roulette wheels and calling 'place your bets' in real time that's great, live
online gaming entertainment.”
This is a fairly new step for the mainstream internet gambling industry and the
online casinos are only just beginning to diversify their platforms with
innovative gaming concepts such as the live dealer format offered through
Evolution Gaming. The new partnership is a first and it is anticipated that this
new option will give Party Casino a needed edge over some of the intense
competition in the European internet gambling market. |
