A couple of months back we posted on a new live casino launch. Patrick Duffy’s Palace Casino (Greater Yarmouth) had started streaming vision from its blackjack and roulette tables – and as the first English terrestrial casino to do so, this was worth a mention. Back then online play times were pretty restricted (8pm...

Marija – Our live dealer of the week
Any time you venture onto Evolution’s Gold tables you want the gambling gods on our side because the limits are pretty big. Now I’ll admit, I’m generally playing at lower (OK lowest) end of the limits available on these tables, but they’re still nothing to sneeze at for a low roller like myself. So...

Monaco Igaming Awards: Best Online Casino Operator
…goes to 888 . Congratulations 888! Now. WTF are the Monaco Igaming Awards and do they actually mean anything?

Yadira – Our dealer of the week
This is Yadira and she’s quite possibly the happiest live casino dealer in the world. Someone slipped her a Red Bull (or 5) before her shift; or maybe some ‘Bolivian marching powder’. She can’t always be like this surely…it’d be exhausting. Fun to watch though! She’s perpetual motion. A little dance here, a jump-up-&-down-on-the...

Best casino banner ever
Not that I’m qualified to judge the best ever casino banner – for the most part I ignore them because they’re usually at best annoying and at worst pretty obnoxious. Not this one. I came across it yesterday and thought it was just a little bit cool and a lot of fun. Mouse over...
