Pennsylvania online casino operator starts live dealer action

Rush Street Interactive announced Friday that its PlaySugarHouse online casino has commenced live casino operations powered by Evolution Gaming, becoming the eighth New Jersey gambling site to bring in live dealer games.

“Evolution pioneered the product category and is globally considered to have the leading live dealer products,” Ken Adams, head of New Jersey operations for Rush Street Interactive, said in a statement. “This reinforces PlaySugarHouse.com’s commitment to offering New Jersey’s online players the best mix of innovative and entertaining games available.”

PlaySugarHouse joins a group of three online casinos that are offering live dealer games powered by Evolution.

Hard Rock online casino became the first to go live with its product Thursday after Evolution received the regulatory thumbs-up to open for business (see previous report). Earlier Friday, 888 Casino NJ also launched its line of Evolution live dealer games.

The third is Ocean Resort Casino operating on a Golden Nugget gaming licence and powered by Evolution, which is expected to launch in the near future.

The flurry of live dealer launches this week is likely to upset Golden Nugget’s dominance in the sector, where it has been active since 2016 using Ezugi live casino technology and services. Also active in the vertical are Borgata, PartyCasino, and playMGM who all launched earlier this year powered by Ezugi.
