Play entertaining live dealer casino games at PlayUK. Feel like you’re sitting in a real casino as you enjoy the action streamed from a live studio straight to your device.

Place your bets at the roulette tables, beat the real-life dealer to 21 at blackjack, experience the Monte Carlo vibe with baccarat or have fun with one of our brilliant game shows.

We reveal all you need to know about live casino in the UK, introduce our interactive games and offer some solid advice about how you can get the most enjoyment from your time at PlayUK.

What is a Live Online Casino?

Live casino games bring engaging, real-life casino action directly to your screen. Filmed in a studio that looks just like a real casino, the games stream live in high definition to your device, and you place your bets using the graphics overlaying the screen.

You can interact with the dealer via the chat box; try asking a question about the game rules, and the dealer will respond. In the same way, you can chat with other players at the table, bringing a social element to your casino session.

It’s the closest you can get to experiencing the thrill of a real casino without having to go out to a real venue.

Live Casino vs Virtual Games

Live casino games are very different from traditional, virtual casino table games. The older-style games use animations and video, and feature random number generators to verify which cards are dealt or the result of a roulette wheel spin.

On the other hand, a UK live casino features real dealers who work at a proper table, using genuine playing cards or a working roulette wheel. The only thing ‘virtual’ in live games is the graphics section you use to place your bets.
Here’s a quick breakdown:

Feature	Live Casino	Virtual Casino Games
Gameplay	Streamed using real dealers	Animated using RNG outcomes
Stakes	Higher minimum stakes	Lower entry point
Speed	Played to the dealer’s pace	Faster, at your own pace
Social interaction	Chat to players and the dealer	None

Games at Our Live Dealer Casino

At PlayUK, we proudly feature 120+ games in our live casino lobby. The selection from world-class studios like Evolution, Playtech and Groove includes the table games you love most, and cool game show titles.

Live Roulette

Place your inside and outside bets on a real roulette table, then watch with anticipation as the croupier spins the iconic roulette wheel. Will the little white ball fall into your numbered pocket? If it does, you’ll receive an instant payout. Our roulette games include:

• Immersive Roulette (Evolution)
• Bellagio Live Roulette (Playtech)
• Quantum Roulette Live (Playtech)

Live Blackjack

Watch as the dealer deals your cards and then wait for your turn to make your betting decision. Choose from the options as they appear on screen, and try to get your hand as close to 21 as possible without going bust. We suggest you play these first:

• Grand Blackjack (Playtech)
• Infinite Bet Stacker Blackjack (Evolution)
• Mega Fire Blaze Blackjack Live (Playtech)

Live Baccarat

Baccarat isn’t a game just for high rollers; anyone can play at our live casino in the UK. It’s disarmingly simple, bet on Banker, Player or Tie, then relax as the real dealer deals the cards and plays the round to its conclusion. Our live baccarat games include:

• Bet on Baccarat (Playtech)
• Super Speed Baccarat (Evolution)
• Baccarat No Commission (Playtech)

Live Casino Poker

Take on the dealer in our live casino poker games, rather than having to test your poker face and skills against other players. If you love building the best possible poker hand, then we’ve got some live online casino games to try, such as:

• Caribbean Stud Poker (Evolution)
• Bet On Poker (Playtech)
• First Person Video Poker (Evolution)

Bonuses & Promotions

To make sure you don’t miss out, check the PlayUK promotions page each time you play to see if we’re running any special offers for live online casino games in the UK. Terms and conditions will apply, so read any wagering conditions because the contribution from live dealer casino games might differ from what you’re used to with slots.

Bonuses at PlayUK are designed to give you maximum benefit, helping you extend your gameplay on titles like Elite Roulette or Fun Fun 21 Blackjack. With a little luck, they might also improve your chances of banking a profit.

Tech Behind Live Online Casino Games

Rapidly evolving technology means live dealer games are getting better every year. Multiple camera angles cover each roulette or blackjack table as the dealer manages the game and chats with the players.

Whether you’re at home or out and about on your mobile, you can choose your camera for the best view of the action. Augmented reality overlays all your betting options and player information onto the screen, so you can place your bets just as you would in a real casino.

The dealer will see your decisions and play out a hand or a game round to its conclusion. Just as in our RNG table games and slots, any win adds to your PlayUK account immediately.

Live Casino Games on Mobile

All live games at PlayUK are designed to work well on your mobile device or tablet, with the action adjusting automatically to your screen size. You can tap the screen to make your betting choices, and even write in the chat box to ask the dealer a question.

We know many of you like playing on your mobile, so we’ve made our live casino in the UK as mobile-friendly as we can. This includes your choice of payment method in the cashier, where you’ll find PayViaPhone (mobile phone billing deposits), Apple Pay and PayPal.

Live Casino Games FAQs

What is a live online casino?

Live casino games bring the excitement of a real casino straight to your device, streaming the action live from a studio in HD. You can place your bets and make decisions using the graphics on the screen as a real dealer spins the roulette wheel or deals your cards.

Are live dealer casino games fair?

Absolutely. You can see the cards being shuffled and dealt in real time, plus you watch the croupier spinning the roulette wheel. Further, PlayUK and all our live studios, including Evolution and Playtech, operate under strict regulation from the UK Gambling Commission.

Can I play for free?

Unfortunately not. While you can enjoy slots and virtual table games run by random number generators in demo form, live dealer games are different. Because you’re playing with other players, and since the studios have real-time wages to pay, you can place real-money bets only.

Can I ask the dealers a question?

Yes, or you can simply join in the banter via the chat box. Our live online casino dealers will help you with any questions about the game rules, although they won’t advise what you should bet on or how much you should bet. Always play responsibly.

Will the games work on my mobile?

100%. Every game in our live dealer casino will adjust automatically to your screen size. You can even pick your own camera angle in some games, while placing your bets involves a simple tap of the screen. Make sure you have a stable internet connection for maximum enjoyment.
