ESSEX, England, Feb 20, 2012 (BUSINESS WIRE) -- Gaming experts LiveCasino.co.uk are predicting that 2012 will see the continuing growth of a phenomenon that has taken the world of online gaming by storm in recent times -- the live casino.
The trend, which merges the clear advantages of the online casino experience with an authentic taste of a real life bricks and mortar casino, has gone from strength to strength since it first began to emerge four years ago. As advancements in technology continue to bring with them greater potential for a more atmospheric online casino experience it seems the live phenomenon is set to become far more than a passing fad.
A spokesperson for LiveCasino.co.uk said: "When Live Casinos first appeared there was a sense in the industry that this was a neat but superficial idea that would probably pass. In fact, with advanced graphics and video streaming enabling an ever more immersive experience, it's clear that the future of gaming online is live. Why go back to a pale, graphically limited imitation of the real thing when you can have, well, the real thing?!"
The concept of the live casino is straightforward enough: Games use a video link to a real life dealer who oversees the game live. So, whilst a gamer can participate from the comfort of their living room, in every other respect the game proceeds exactly as it would in a real casino. It's a simple but inspired hybrid.
No wonder then that LiveCasino.co.uk estimate the number of Live Casinos to have risen from 15 in 2008 to 140 in 2012.
The spokesperson for LiveCasino.co.uk does, however, issue a caveat: "This explosion in the number of Live Casinos means that a little caution is sensible. With so many new Live Casinos springing up you really must make sure your experience is both entirely safe and as fulfilling as is possible.
