Follow the cards and the decisions
Live, video and stadium products can look similar on a screen, but their descriptions do not necessarily mean the same thing. Look for what the report actually says about the dealer, the cards and each player’s decisions. A recorded rollout does not establish the rules or availability of a game offered now.
- Dealer
- Does the report describe a live dealer, recorded video or another interface?
- Player choices
- Look for how individual decisions were entered and resolved.
- Table rules
- Keep the interface description separate from payouts and rule details.
Does an onscreen dealer tell you the full rules of a game?
No. The presentation and the rules are separate. A report may describe the video or terminal experience without specifying the deck count, payouts or every available decision.
