iGaming Glossary / Dual Play
What is Dual Play?
A live table played at the same time by online players and players standing at a real casino table.
Dual play is a live casino format where one physical table is shared by two audiences at once. Players standing at a real table in a land-based casino bet alongside online players watching the same stream. Both groups see the same dealer, the same wheel and the same result.
Why it matters: it blends the atmosphere of a real venue with the convenience of playing from home. The buzz of a busy floor comes through on camera, which many players prefer over a quiet studio table.
Worth knowing: dual play tables can have a slower pace because the dealer serves the in-person crowd too, and seats or bet types may differ from a studio table. The outcome is still driven by the physical equipment. See the live casino guide for more.
