William Hill has debuted a live online casino in the nation of Italy. Players there will now be able to participate in live dealer versions of blackjack and roulette. These games, as their names suggest, will be run by real people, rather than a computer.

“One key element of the Live Casino,” read a company statement, “is the dealers; real professionals who will dictate the rules of the game and bring it to life. Players can also interact with them via chat. There are no time limits to play as Roulette Live will be available 24-hours-a-day and Blackjack Live will follow soon. Playing online becomes life-like and you can experience the real emotion of being in a casino without leaving your home.”

Players will be able to view all of the action through a hi-resolution video feed. This streaming service will also afford users the chance to chat with their online table-mates in real time, according to iGaming Business.

“Thanks to Live Casino,” said William Hill’s Italy Country Manager, Roby Salvadori, “everybody can experience the emotion of a real casino simply by connecting from their sofa at any time. It’s fun and easy to use and we believe it will be a big hit with Italian players.”

The British gaming company plans to add more games to their live roster in the near future, should their initial offerings become popular.
