Evolution Gaming, the world leader in video-streamed Live Dealer gaming, has announced the rollout of its new Live Roulette for iPad solution for Lottomatica – a first in the Italian market.

Lottomatica is using the Evolution iPad platform in two ways: to broaden the reach of its web-based Live Roulette games to iPad users; and to provide an iPad-based betting interface for viewers of the Lottomatica Vegas Club TV show – channel 59 on DTT.

Live game feeds for both the web-based Lottomatica Live Casino service and its Live Casino TV show are streamed direct from dedicated tables at Evolution’s Riga studios. The tables are Lottomatica branded and staffed by native speaking Italian dealers.

For the TV show, Lottomatica broadcasts live from an Italian TV studio and integrates the Riga live table feeds on large screens that are part of the TV studio set. Italian presenters provide running commentary on the live games and interact with the viewers and dealers.

Lottomatica customers use their iPads to play Live Roulette, with a simple betting interface synchronised to the online game, appearing on their iPad screens.

Lottomatica originally selected Evolution – the first Live Casino provider to be fully certified by ADM (previously known as AAMS) and to go live in Italy – in 2011. The new iPad services extend Lottomatica’s core online Live Roulette, and in the near future, Live Blackjack offering too.

Gionata La Torre, CEO of Evolution Italy, added: “This demonstrates, once again, our commitment to delivering flawless live gaming on multiple devices in regulated markets; it not only extends player choice but also operator reach.”
