Live dealer technology and games provider Authentic Gaming has signed a partnership with Foxwoods Resort Casino to live-stream roulette games from its casino floor to online players.
Foxwoods Casino Resort is North America’s largest resort casino, and the fifth largest in the world, featuring over 9 million square feet of gaming, dining, hotel, shopping and entertainment spaces.
The deal marks the first time live casino players in Europe and around the world will be able to access live table games from the floor of a US land-based casino via the supplier’s Authentic Roulette product.
Authentic Roulette allows land-based operators to live stream games from roulette tables located on their gaming floors to an unlimited number of online players via the supplier’s network of B2B clients, including Unibet, LeoVegas, MrGreen, NYX Gaming Group, EveryMatrix and Bethard Group amongst several others.
The first table to go live from Foxwoods Casino Resort will be a single zero, European roulette table streamed live from the Club Newport VIP room at the Grand Pequot Casino; one of several gaming floors located within Foxwoods.
The partnership will also allow online operators to offer their players unique and innovative promotions, such as sending players to Foxwoods Resort Casino on VIP trips that include shopping sprees and nights at the casino where they will finish the night off on their favourite table game that they are already familiar with from their online experience.
Jonas Delin, CEO of Authentic Gaming, said Friday:
“This is a breakthrough deal for us and the wider online gambling industry. It marks the first time any live casino game has been streamed from the floor of a US casino to European players.”
Seth Young, director of online gaming at Foxwoods Resort Casino, said: “We are thrilled to be the first US casino to stream live to online players in Europe and around the world. This is a fantastic opportunity for Foxwoods to extend its brand internationally, and to show the world what it means to experience Foxwoods hospitality.”
