What is the Live Dealer Casino
The Live Dealer platform allows you to play real money games in a more interactive and engaging environment where, instead of competing against a gaming machine where the Random Number Generator dominates, you vie against real dealers who deal your cards, take your bets and chat with you as you play in an atmosphere of action-filled casino entertainment.

How to Play Live Dealer Games
If you have an existing Grande Vegas account, you can play Live Dealer games by switching to the Live Dealer platform via the browser tab.

Your central casino account will allow you to toggle between the gaming machines and the Live Dealer platform.

To place funds in your Live Dealer account, open the "Live Dealer" via the browser button located at the top of the screen and check your account to see your main balance. Under "Main Balance" there's a "Casino Balance" field that shows you the funds that you have available to play at the Live Dealer. You can transfer money into the Casino Balance – 25 coins, 100 coins or 1000 coins (or click "Pick" and select a different amount) Click "All" if you want to transfer your entire balance.

Live Dealer Games
The Grande Vegas Live Dealer platform offers four different Live Dealer games including:
Blackjack
Live dealer blackjack at Grande Vegas is played using 6-deck shoes at tables of up to seven players, so you're not only playing against the dealer – you're playing as you would at a Vegas blackjack table, next to other players – as you all take turns making decisions (Hit, Stand, Double, Split) within a fixed time frame (15–20 seconds).
The table offers a standard 3:2 payout on natural blackjack so you don't have to worry about the higher house edge 6:5 payout trap. You'll be able to double down on any two initial cards, as well as after a Split.
Side bet options include Perfect Pairs and 21 + 3 where you combine your first two cards with the dealer’s upcard to form a 3-card poker hand.
Roulette
You can play Live American Roulette or Live European Roulette at Grande Vegas where the dealer spins the wheel, rather than the gaming machine's Random Number Generator. The game is played similarly to regular online casino roulette with casino advisors suggesting that you choose European Roulette where the House Edge is lower.
Throughout the spins, you can interact directly with the croupier and view real-time chat from other participants who are playing with you at the table. Throughout the wheel spins, you can watch the display to track ratios, percentages and trends.
Baccarat
Live Baccarat follows standard 8-deck rules where you're challenged to predict which hand - the Player or the Banker - will achieve a total point value closest to 9. In Live Dealer Baccarat, the player hand pays 1:1, the banker hand pays 1:1 and the Tie Bet pays 8:1. As with blackjack and roulette, you'll be playing at a table with a live dealer and other players so you can interact with each other while you place your bets and collect your wins.
Live baccarat tables at Grande Vegas include high-payout side wagers:
- Player / Banker Pair - Pays 11:1 if the first two cards dealt to that respective side form a matching pair (House edge ~10.36%).
- Either Pair - Pays 5:1 if either the Player or Banker hand holds a pair in their initial deal.
- Dragon Bonus - A payout side bet based on the margin of victory (up to 30:1 for a 9-point non-natural win).
Super 6
Super 6 offers a baccarat variation which pays out 1:1 on Banker wins. However, if the Banker wins with a point total of 6, the payout is reduced to 0.5:1 (50% of your stake) which increases the Banker house edge slightly.
