Live-Dealer Blackjack is a Great Innovation
Although online gambling is wildly popular, there are thousands of people working behind the scenes to make it better. Computer gambling is a pretty technical experience, lacking the warmth, excitement and human interaction of land-based gambling. But now all that has changed. Live-dealer casinos offer the most realistic gambling possible outside the walls of a Vegas or an Atlantic City casino - it's the next best thing to being there.
Playing blackjack online has its advantages but it has had - until now - its down side too. Playing blackjack against a computer is a relaxing and low-pressure activity, but it doesn't offer much in the way of stimulation or involvement. If you are a new, inexperienced player, playing online against the computer is a good way to gain confidence and learn how the game works. But if you've ever played in a casino, it's hard to forget the thrill of the real table, the real dealer, the real cards and the real atmosphere. Live-dealer blackjack brings it all back to you; the only thing missing is the expense of the flight and the hotel.
Live-Dealer Blackjack is Just Lacking the Free Drinks
When you play live-dealer blackjack, you can actually interact with the dealer. You will see him/her deal the real cards (technology is an amazing thing) and you can ask questions and chat if that's your style. There is a web camera on the dealer's side that shows his every move and there is a microphone on both sides that allows you to talk and for the dealer to talk back. Nothing is more realistic than live-dealer blackjack. You also get to watch the live dealer (it's not a simulated figure!!) shuffle the decks and cut the cards; it's truly a real casino experience. If you're a chatty player, you can even talk to the other players at the table - live-dealer blackjack is the most up-close and personal way to play blackjack and it's all possible from your own living room.
Live-Dealer Blackjack Etiquette
One point worth mentioning is the etiquette involved when playing live-dealer blackjack. If you have been playing against your computer, you may need a reminder in this regard (since there's no etiquette when playing alone). When you play alone, you can take all the time in the world but in live-dealer blackjack you are playing a real game with real time restraints. If you talk to the dealer or to fellow players, you have to watch what you say. Your computer gives you only limited anonymity; common courtesy is still expected. Polite gaming is a natural byproduct of playing in a real casino - live-dealer blackjack is not different. Everything you love about real casino blackjack is now available to you in live-dealer blackjack. It was worth the wait.
