Live hybrid online table game specialist Evolution Gaming has launched a second live casino environment for U.K. bookmaker William Hill at its studio facility in Riga, Latvia. Devoted to the William Hill brand, the new environment went live on February 9 and will initially feature one live roulette table and one live blackjack table—both of which will operate 24 hours a day, seven days a week, with video funneled over the internet.
This will be the second William Hill-branded environment to have been opened by Evolution in Riga, with the first service offering live dealer roulette, blackjack, baccarat, casino hold ‘em and Three Card Poker. “This is a natural next step for us, as we continue to tailor our online services to different customer segments,” William Hill’s head of live casino and Vegas, Kevin Kilminster, said.
“The new live tables, complete with a dedicated dealer team in Vegas-styled clothing, as well as a dedicated floor and promotions manager, are central to the distinctive Vegas service, which is designed to appeal to new player types and demographics.”
Sebastian Johannisson, head of account management at Evolution, added, “William Hill was one of the first operators to take a dedicated environment at our studios back in 2011. At each step we have earmarked additional floor space in line with the client’s long-term business plan.
“We are delighted that, once again, this client is extending its dedicated live casino operations to serve growing player demand and to maximize the exciting potential of highly branded and targeted online gaming services.”
