Definition
A live dealer game is run by a real croupier in a professional studio and delivered via real-time video streaming. Outcomes come from physical events — wheel, cards, dice — not software, blending the atmosphere of a land-based casino with the convenience of online play.
Providers like Evolution Gaming and Pragmatic Play operate these studios. Because every round is public and time-stamped, the data is verifiable: this is what lets Spinlytics gather reliable statistics from the providers' official feeds.
