Live casino specialist Authentic Gaming has signed an agreement with the Bethard Group to provide the Scandinavian operator with its innovative Authentic Roulette product.
Under the deal, players on Bethard.com, which has just received a UK licence, will gain access to live roulette games streamed from the floors of luxury land-based casinos, including The Platinum Casino at the Radisson BLU Hotel in Bucharest, Casino International Batumi at the Hilton Hotel in Georgia,The Saint-Vincent Casino in Italy and Casino Bucharest at the Intercontinental Hotel.
In total, players will be able to sit down at seven tables across the four casinos.
In addition, they will also be able to take advantage of Lucky Ball side bets, which offer pay-outs of up to 120:1. Bethard players will also be able to view live entertainment events while they play via the supplier’s Live! Entertainment platform.
Authentic’s games will be offered under a separate tab on the Bethard website, with the operator pushing the vertical to its players when they launch in Q4.
Authentic Roulette allows land-based operators to live stream games from roulette tables located on their casino floors to an unlimited number of online players via the supplier’s network of B2B clients.
The footage is captured via HD cameras located above the wheel and around the table. Authentic Roulette is not realistic, it’s real; the tables are real, the croupiers are real, the cards and the chips are real and, most importantly, the other players are real.
Jonas Delin, Managing Director of Authentic Gaming, said: “We are thrilled to be working with Bethard as they look to expand their game portfolio and really get behind live dealer in a big way.
“Authentic Roulette and our suite of additional games move the needle for live dealer, porting players to the heart of the action and allowing them to experience to thrill and fun of the casino floor in a way that studio-based products simply cannot.”
Adam Vella, Head of Products at Bethard Group said: “Authentic Roulette is an innovative product that will allow us to better cross-sell sportsbook punters to casino. It really does bring the experience to life for the player.”
The partnership comes hot on the heels of similar recent integrations with the likes of Mr Green and the Hattrick Sports Group.
