[Company News] Evolution Gaming, leading provider of Live Casino solutions, has been named ‘Best In-Casino Streaming Live Dealer Provider’ for its Dual Play convergence solution at the Live Gaming Summit 2018, Barcelona.

The Summit, at Casino Barcelona, Port Olímpic, brought together providers, operators, experts and other stakeholders in the Live Gaming industry for keynote presentations and panel discussions on key industry developments. Appropriately, one of the lead topics was Opportunities for Land-based Casinos: Studios and Table Streaming.

The award-winning Evolution Dual Play installation enables the live game action at any Roulette or Baccarat table in a land-based casino to be enjoyed not only by on-premise seated players but also by a virtually unlimited number of additional players playing online. These additional players can be at remote locations (home, hotel, taxi etc) or in other areas of the land-based venue such as bars and restaurants.

To date Evolution Dual Play has been selected by numerous world-leading casinos including The Ritz London, The Hippodrome London, The Grosvenor Victoria and Genting International Casino, Resorts World, Birmingham.

James Stern, Director of Land-based at Evolution, said: “We are extremely proud of our Dual Play solution and of this award win. 2018 is off to a great start with two further Dual Play launches already, including our first Dual Play Baccarat. Further exciting Dual Play developments are in the pipeline for later this year, and this award will give us even further momentum.”

Stern added: “Since its launch in 2015, Evolution Dual Play has established itself as the convergence solution of choice for the world’s premier land-based casinos. Dual Play is enabling those casinos to bridge the gap between on-premise and online play and helping them to deliver a better service and a more seamless service to existing players, Critically, it’s also key tool for attracting new players and new generations to our customers’ branded venues.”

Another major award at the Live Gaming Summit 2018 was picked up by Evolution licensee LeoVegas, who won ‘Best Branded Studio’ for their dedicated Live Casino created in Evolution’s Riga studios.
