BetMGM announced that players at BetMGM Casino Alberta in Canada can now enjoy live blackjack, roulette, and baccarat, hosted by professional dealers and streamed in real time from MGM Resorts International venues in Las Vegas.
BetMGM Alberta Offers Livestreamed Casino Games
The launch further strengthens BetMGM Casino Alberta’s premium casino offering, providing players with exclusive experiences supported by BetMGM’s partnerships with MGM Resorts International and leading gaming providers. Alberta is among the few regulated iGaming markets in North America where players can access live dealer games streamed directly from Las Vegas casinos. While many jurisdictions require live dealer content to originate from local studios, Alberta players can enjoy real table games hosted at MGM Resorts destinations, offering a more authentic Las Vegas casino experience.
Players would be able to play real blackjack, roulette, and baccarat tables from Las Vegas. They will be able to interact with professional dealers and take part in live gameplay from a computer, tablet, or mobile device. Through MGM Grand and Bellagio Dual Play tables, players can also join real-time games taking place on the casino floors of these iconic Las Vegas resorts, a feature made possible by Alberta’s regulatory framework
Officials Say This Bridges the Gaps Between Online and Physical Gaming
The company said that the latest launch further enhances BetMGM Casino Alberta’s premium casino offering. It gives players access to exclusive experiences made possible through BetMGM’s partnerships with MGM Resorts International and leading gaming suppliers. Speaking of expanding partnerships and extending its reach online, BetMGM recently teamed up with Awager to further secure its position in New Jersey.
But back to Alberta, Rob Passerino, director of gaming at BetMGM, said that live dealer content remains one of the fastest-growing areas of iGaming. He noted that the format helps bridge the gap between online gaming and the physical casino floor by offering players a more immersive and engaging experience. According to Passerino, real-time interaction with professional dealers and the ability to watch hands and spins unfold live create a level of authenticity that strongly appeals to players.
