2024: Most popular live dealer games

Here’s a snapshot of the most popular live dealer games right now.

At any given time, the largest providers do show the number active players on their games. Below are today’s numbers from the two biggest: Evolution and Pragmatic Play.

While only a moment in time, these numbers are consistent with trend. They’re also taken from a statistically significant sample of players at the time (over 55,000 on the Evolution games, over 25,000 players across Pragmatic’s games)

Crazy Time still most popular live game in 2024

With more than 10,000 players (this and most times) Crazy Time remains the most popular live dealer games with daylight second. Since its introduction in 2020 this big money wheel and its bonus games has been a clear fan favourite.

But Crazy Time’s unexpected success has spurred the launch of a flood of other big money wheel games, both by Evolution and competing providers. Most are proving popular with players.

The top 3 games in 2024, by player numbers are all live money wheels.

Top 3 most popular live games

  1. Crazy Time with 10,000+ players
  2. Sweet Bonanza Candyland with 5,000+ players
  3. Mega Wheel with 5,000+ players

While the list of most popular live game is dominated by game shows, there were a couple of traditional casino game tables hosting big numbers.

Most popular traditional table games

It was nice to see at least a some traditional table games among the most favourite. Speed Baccarat A, one of Evolution’s many live baccarat tables was hosting over 1,800 players. While Pragmatic’s Azure Roulette tables was hosting over 400 players.

Interestingly, Playtech’s busiest table, with over 600 players was Roleta Brasileira, demonstrating the growth in the Brazilian market.

It is also worth considering that when it comes to traditional live game categories players are spread across many tables. A single roulette or baccarat table is unlikely to host as many players as the most popular game shows. But collectively across all roulette or baccarat or blackjack tables, numbers can be very high.

For example, of the 55,000 players that were active on Evolution’s tables, around

  • 7,500 were playing various live baccarat tables, and
  • 5,000 were playing various live roulette tables.

This is excluding casino-exclusive tables.

Blackjack is a difficult category to quantify given there are so many casino-exclusive live blackjack tables. You’d need to be logged in at all Evolution powered casinos with private blackjack tables and do a frantic count to get the number.

But there can be no doubt there’s still plenty of interest in the traditional game categories, albeit spread over multiple tables.
