Live casino at 345bet: what to know before you join a table
A live casino brings real dealers, physical cards and real roulette wheels to your screen through a video stream. You bet through an on-screen interface, and the result is decided by what happens on the table in the studio. This guide explains the formats you are likely to meet, how tables differ and what to check before betting. Which tables are open to your account at 345bet is something to see in the lobby; we do not list them, because availability changes with location and time.
Common live formats
- Roulette: a single-zero wheel is the most common format; some tables add multipliers on random numbers.
- Blackjack: seats are limited, so some tables let extra players bet behind the seated ones.
- Baccarat: bet on player, banker or tie; speed versions shorten each round.
- Game shows: wheels and bonus rounds hosted like a TV programme, with very different maths from table games.
Limits and pace
Every live table has a minimum and maximum bet shown in the lobby or at the table. Choose a table where the minimum fits comfortably inside your session budget — ideally many times over. Pace matters too: a speed table can deal twice as many rounds per hour as a standard one, which doubles how quickly a budget is used even though the odds are the same. Count rounds, not just bets.
How live games differ from software versions
Software table games run on a random number generator and wait for you; live games run on the dealer's schedule. Live games feel more social and transparent, but they are slower to learn and there is no demo. Many players learn the rules on a software version first and then move to a live table.
Before you sit down
- Read the table rules: payouts, side bets and how ties are handled.
- Check the table limits against your budget.
- Watch a few rounds to get used to the timing.
- Decide how many rounds you will play, or for how long.
Is the stream genuine?
Live tables are produced by specialised studios, and their names and table rules appear inside the game window. On a copied casino site, a "live" game might be a recording or a lookalike with no studio identification. If the table shows no studio, no rules and no limits, do not bet — and double-check the site you are on, including the operator's legal name and licence in the footer.
Side bets and game shows
Many live tables add side bets — pairs in baccarat, perfect pairs in blackjack, multiplier numbers in roulette. They pay more when they hit and usually carry a higher house edge than the main bet. Game shows work differently again: big wheels and bonus rounds where the long-run return depends on the specific show. Read the payout table of each before betting on it.
Bonus funds and live tables
Bonus offers often count live games at a reduced rate or exclude them. Read the contribution table in the wagering guide before relying on live play to clear a bonus.
