Playtech's live baccarat offering from its Asian dealer
studio is comprehensive. While arguably not as aesthetically appealing as
Evolutions baccarat games, the
vision is solid and the interface is intuitive and easy to play.
The interface itself is similar to the format adopted by most
live dealer platforms, with the video vision sitting within a graphic dominated
interface. Playtech's Asian based live dealer platform was the first to go
live so it's no surprise that most competing platforms have copied
their original look and feel.
You are able to view the web-cast as a full screen video, but
with this selection you lose access to bet interface options (ie it's just an
enlarged video of the dealer for viewing only), although you can place your bets
and then switch to full screen view for the deal, and back to normal view to
place bets for the next deal. The quality of the video stream
doesn't really support large screen viewing very well.
Baccarat variations
Where this offering has it over competing platforms, is
game and table range. Browsing the baccarat menu you will find no less
than 5 baccarat variations, each offering a large range of dealers, tables and
bet limits to choose from. Variations currently offered are:
Features - Many games: 5 variations to choose from, see below;
- Chat: to dealer and other players as you play;
- Browser play: no download required, you will need the Adobe Flash plug-in
though;
- History: full bet history available;
- Table choice: Enormous table, dealer, bet limit range;
- Reasonable time between deals: 30 seconds;
- Variety of bet ranges: see
baccarat limits
page;
- Intuitive interface.

The bet interface that most live dealer platforms launching in the
last couple of years have used as the benchmark. A small video
