Live Dealer Casinos and Studios in Asia!DISCLOSURE

The absolute center of the Asian market when it comes to streaming live dealer games is located in the Philippines. Playtech, Opus Gaming, EntwineTech, Ho Gaming, Vivo Gaming and Asia Gaming have studios in one of the two office towers in Makati City, Manila. One of them is the RCBC Plaza, a prestigious office skyscraper complex, and the other one is PBCom Tower, officially ranked the third tallest building in the Philippines.

Ezugi streams games in real time from brick and mortar casino surroundings in Cambodia, while BetConstruct offers studio-based games streamed from Yerevan in Armenia. Most of the mentioned studios feature exotic and glamorous settings in an attempt to emulate lavish interiors of the pompous Macau casino resorts.

Live casino tables with native-speaking dealers

With studios in all the right locations, top software providers are able to hire professional native dealers to bring the “local” feel and complete the atmosphere at the tables. This attracts Asian gamblers to sign up and enjoy the perks of live dealer casinos from the comfort of their homes. You don’t need to fly to Macau when you can chat with real dealers trained in Macau’s most prominent venues. For example, Ho Gaming hires native dealers for its Philippine studios who are specifically trained in land-based venues in southern China.

Needless to say, some of the croupiers will speak Mandarin, while others will speak Japanese, Vietnamese, Thai or Taiwanese, depending on the casino and the software provider. Live Casino House has a large collection of live dealer games with Asian croupiers, and chances are you will be able to interact with them in your native language. They are predominantly young, lovely females and sometimes they will be dressed in traditional outfits or try to convey a dash of the ethereal Asian culture through the camera as you’re playing.

The most popular games in Asian live casinos

Possibly more than any other major region in the world, Asia showcases a specific taste for casino games. Here, unique games with long local traditions have bigger draws than globally popular gaming items. While Asians like to play Blackjack, Roulette and Poker, they are more inclined towards authentic games of chance such as Baccarat, Sic Bo, Dragon Tiger or Hi-Lo. Other games that you will rarely see outside Asian-facing online casinos with real dealers are Lucky 7, War of Bets and live dealer Fantan.

For a full Asian gaming experience, we suggest you try out Live Dragon Tiger and Live Sic Bo, as well as Live Baccarat, and all its interesting variations. For example, at some casinos you can play Live Fabulous 4 Baccarat or Live Super 98 Baccarat by Gameplay Interactive. For something a bit more out of the ordinary, you can always go for Microgaming’s Live Baccarat Playboy, a special branded edition of the fast-paced card game with live dealers dressed as Playboy girls.
