Getting Into a Live Table: Four Steps
The live lobby sits in its own tab, separate from slots, and the route in is much the same at every casino.
A live lobby is a place where the same game can cost you 1.06% or 14.36% of what you stake, depending on which spot you tap. This page ranks the five games in the lobby by what each bet actually costs, sets out how a live table differs from an RNG one, and names the studios running tables for players in Vietnam — Evolution, Pragmatic Play, Ezugi, Wali Games, Sexy Gaming, Winfinity and SV388.
A live lobby is not something a casino has by default: it has to sign with each studio separately, so two sites accepting players from Vietnam can offer very different halls. Below are online casinos accepting Vietnamese players that run a live lobby, with the bonus, the payment and withdrawal routes, and the studios present in each one's hall.
The live lobby sits in its own tab, separate from slots, and the route in is much the same at every casino.
Step 1
The live hall has its own section, usually called Live Casino or Live Dealer, separate from the slots tab. Inside, tables are sorted either by studio (Evolution, Pragmatic Play, Ezugi, Wali Games) or by game (Roulette, Blackjack, Baccarat, Game Shows).
Step 2
If you know what you want to play, browsing by game is faster. If you want a particular kind of table — a multiplier table, a speed table, a dealer speaking a specific language — browse by studio. A large tile carrying a studio name is the door into that studio's own hall: open it and choose a table inside.
Step 3
Every table tile shows its minimum and maximum stake on the thumbnail. A VIP table and a standard table of the same game can be tens of times apart at the minimum while running identical rules and identical payouts, so there is no reason to sit at a higher-limit table than you intend to play.
Step 4
Live tables run in rounds: a betting window counts down on screen, then the table locks and the round plays out. Join mid-round and you simply wait for the next one. Every table has a repeat-last-bet control and a panel of recent results on screen.
Live tables are not run by the casino: they come from broadcast studios, and a casino’s hall is simply the set of studios it has signed. Knowing who runs what is the quickest way to guess what a lobby holds before you open it. The table counts below were taken in the live hall of one large casino accepting players from Vietnam.
The largest live supplier in the market, founded in 2006, and the studio behind Dream Catcher, Crazy Time, Monopoly Live and the whole Lightning range. In the live lobby of one large casino serving Vietnamese players, Evolution accounts for 26 of the 39 roulette tables, 27 of 39 blackjack tables, 33 of 39 baccarat tables and 33 of 40 game-show titles — most of what you see in the live tab is theirs.
Two things help you read an Evolution lobby quickly. Tables named for a language — Deutsches, Norsk, Japanese, Roulette Latina — are the same game with a dealer speaking that language, not a different rule set. And the First Person range is the RNG version of those same tables, there for when the live seats are full.
The second studio present in almost every live lobby serving this market: 12 roulette tables, 12 blackjack tables, 6 baccarat tables and 7 game-show titles in that same lobby. It came to live dealer later than Evolution and built its range around one idea — multiplier tables.
That is why so many of its tables carry Mega or PowerUP in the name: Mega Roulette, Mega Roulette 3000, PowerUP Roulette, Mega Sic Bo, where a handful of spots get a random multiplier before each round. The mechanic comes with its own paytable — on multiplier roulette a straight-up number that does not draw a multiplier pays less than the 35 to 1 of a standard table, and each table states the figure. Pragmatic also runs the Privé Lounge and VIP blackjack tables at higher minimums.
Part of the Evolution group, and the studio that builds for the Asian and South Asian markets. In a live lobby it usually appears as a single “Ezugi Lobby” tile that opens its own hall, plus separate Roulette and Baccarat lobbies.
Its strength is the group of card tables the European studios do not run: Teen Patti and its variants, Andar Bahar, Casino Hold’em and a general Poker Lobby. Seven of the 37 tiles in that lobby’s poker tab are Ezugi tables, and they are among the few in the tab with an actual dealer — most of the rest are software.
A live supplier aimed squarely at South East Asia, and the reason a lobby serving Vietnamese players looks different from one serving Europe. In the lobby measured here Wali runs seven tables: Dragon Tiger, Dragon Phoenix, Red-White, Sic Bo, Niu Niu, a Baccarat table and a Roulette table.
Wali is also behind Hundred Player Texas Holdem, Three Card Poker, Banker Three Card Poker and Casino Poker — the real-dealer card tables in the poker tab, alongside Ezugi and Evolution.
The three remaining names in a live lobby built for this market, each behind its own tile. Sexy Gaming is an Asia-based studio running baccarat, Dragon Tiger, Sic Bo and roulette in a multi-table layout on one screen. Winfinity runs its own hall with roulette and game-show tables.
SV388 is not a casino table at all: it is a live cockfighting hall, a category present in most lobbies serving Vietnam and the Philippines and essentially absent from those serving Europe. Seeing that tile in the live tab tells you the lobby was assembled for South East Asia rather than translated from an international one.

The return to player of a game does not change between the two lobbies — a single-zero roulette table takes 2.7027% of what you stake whether it is spun by hand in a studio or by software. These are the things that do change.
A live lobby is built around five groups of tables. Each group has a cheapest bet and a dearest one, and the gap between those two is wider than the gap between the games themselves. Every figure below is derived from the rules of the game, and each row links to the page that shows the working.
| Game | Cheapest bet | House edge | Cost per 1,000,000 VND staked |
|---|---|---|---|
| Baccarat | Banker, after the 5% commission | 1.0579% | 10,579 VND |
| Baccarat | Player | 1.2351% | 12,351 VND |
| Three Card Poker | Pair Plus on the flush-pays-4 paytable | 2.3167% | 23,167 VND |
| Roulette | single-zero table — every bet costs the same | 2.7027% | 27,027 VND |
| Dream Catcher | the 10 | 3.4188% | 34,188 VND |
Baccarat is both the cheapest game in the lobby and the least demanding one: its two main bets are 0.1772 percentage points apart, so picking either is close to picking right. Single-zero roulette has its own quirk — every bet on the layout has an identical price, from a straight-up number to red/black, so there is no wrong spot, only a choice of variance.
| Game | Dearest bet | House edge | Cost per 1,000,000 VND staked |
|---|---|---|---|
| Baccarat | Tie, paying 8 to 1 | 14.3596% | 143,596 VND |
| Dream Catcher | the 40 | 9.1880% | 91,880 VND |
| Blackjack | Insurance, paying 2 to 1 | 7.4699% | 74,699 VND |
| Three Card Poker | Pair Plus on the flush-pays-3 paytable | 7.2760% | 72,760 VND |
| Roulette | double-zero table — every bet | 5.2632% | 52,632 VND |
Both tables describe the same lobby on the same evening. The Tie bet in baccarat costs thirteen times what the Banker bet costs, and the two sit inches apart on the same felt — a bigger spread than anything separating the five games. That is why the pages under this section spend most of their length pricing bets rather than restating rules.
| Game | The real decision | Read more |
|---|---|---|
| Live roulette | single-zero or double-zero; standard, multiplier or speed table | Live roulette |
| Live blackjack | a 3:2 table or a 6:5 one; whether to take insurance and side bets | Live blackjack |
| Live baccarat | Banker or Player; commission or no-commission table | Live baccarat |
| Live poker | which tables have a real dealer; the side-bet paytable in use | Live poker |
| Dream Catcher | which number you back — six spots, six different prices | Dream Catcher |
Beyond those five, a lobby built for the Asian market also runs Sic Bo, Dragon Tiger, Fan Tan, Niu Niu, Red-White and live cockfighting. The dice maths is on our Sic Bo and dice games pages.
What a live table does differently from an RNG one, and the operational details worth knowing before you sit down.

Live tables run directly in the mobile browser with nothing to install. The portrait layout puts the video stream on top, the betting felt underneath, and the results history between them. Because portrait shrinks the felt, three groups of tables are worth turning sideways for: roulette (a 37-pocket layout plus the combination bets), multi-hand blackjack, and Three Card Poker — the tables where you need several spots visible at once. Baccarat, Sic Bo and Dream Catcher read fine in portrait.
One thing to know on mobile data: a live table is a continuous video stream, so it uses considerably more data than the slots lobby. Most tables carry a control to drop the video quality or switch to a felt-only view, and the betting window keeps running in that mode — you do not lose a round by turning the video off. Read our mobile casino guide for the wider picture.
A live lobby is a place where the same game can cost you 1.0579% or 14.3596% of what you stake, depending on which spot you tap. No round in the lobby lets skill change that figure — what changes it is the table you sit at and the bet you place, and both are settled before the round begins. The five pages under this section price every bet in every game. Gambling is for players aged 18 and over; set a limit before you open a table.
Baccarat, on the Banker bet: 1.0579% after the 5% commission, or 10,579 VND for every 1,000,000 VND staked. The Player bet next to it is 1.2351%. After that come Three Card Poker’s Pair Plus on the better paytable (2.3167%), single-zero roulette (2.7027% on every bet on the layout) and the 10 on Dream Catcher (3.4188%).
The baccarat Tie bet when it pays 8 to 1: 14.3596%, or 143,596 VND per 1,000,000 VND staked — thirteen times the Banker bet sitting inches away on the same felt. Then the 40 on Dream Catcher (9.1880%), insurance in blackjack (7.4699%), Pair Plus on the weaker paytable (7.2760%) and a double-zero roulette table (5.2632%).
No. The same rules give the same return: a single-zero roulette table takes 2.7027% whether it is spun by hand in a studio or generated by software. What differs between the two lobbies is the pace, the minimum stake, whether a demo exists, and whether you can interact with anyone.
No. Live tables are streamed from a studio with a real dealer, so every round is played for real money. To learn the rules first, use the RNG version of the same game — Evolution also runs its First Person range, which is the RNG twin of its own live tables and uses the same felt layout.
