Live game shows are extremely popular at Irish casinos, but let’s take a look and find out why.

Whether you’re travelling through Ireland by train or relaxing at home in the evening after a long day at work, many people turn to their mobile phone devices to keep them entertained, with games being a favoured option for some.

One of the go-to products for many is via an online casino, with online casinos in Ireland serving up an extensive selection of games for people to dive in and out of with ease.

Of course, alongside its detailed offering of games, the average online casino in Ireland also enables players to win real money while having some fun and entertainment along the way.

The sheer amount of games people can access at online casinos is quite remarkable, especially in the modern-day with a number of exciting game types coming to the fore. At the moment, a favoured option for many Irish players has broadly been called live dealer game shows.

Live dealer game shows at a reputable online casino site are a relatively new phenomenon that has been taking the casino gaming space by storm, particularly among people who are fans of classic game shows and fancy experiencing one for themselves from the comfort of their own phones.


But what exactly are live dealer game shows, and why are people playing them in 2022? Let’s take a look below.

In order to understand the exact reasons why people are discovering live dealer game shows, it’s worthwhile knowing exactly what they are.
Put simply; live dealer game shows combine traditional live games and money wheel games. They also include elements of some much-loved game shows from around the world.


For example, people can sample titles such as Deal or No Deal and Monopoly Live – two well-known games that have been adapted for the live casino gaming space. Of course, you’ll know the television version of Deal or No Deal.

While it was a worldwide hit, Ireland had its own version, hosted by magician Keith Barry. The format is very similar, but now anyone can play with a real dealer acting as a host.

This subcategory of casino gaming features some familiar hit television releases and enables players to experience a taste of the game show life for themselves.

As well as being presented with numerous opportunities to reign supreme, these types of live dealer game shows provide the sounds and camera angles that you’d expect when appearing on a game show of this type on television. As such, players are tempted to explore a truly authentic gaming experience.

Unlike other casino options, such as poker and blackjack, playing the average live dealer game show title at a reputable online casino doesn’t require a great deal of strategic play and skill.

Essentially, luck plays an integral role in any big success. Of course, there are some things you should and shouldn’t do in any casino game. But, luck is the main ingredient to success in these particular casino titles.

Before diving into a live dealer game show, it’s certainly worth seeing someone else attempt to play the game beforehand, largely because it will give you a basic understanding of how the game works but can also familiarise yourself with any winning combinations and fine-tune your basic strategy.

For instance, some players watch YouTube videos before committing to an actual game. Others might spend a small amount of money in an attempt to grasp the gameplay before diving further into a specific release.

Above all else, live dealer game shows have nailed what a truly authentic game show experience is in the palm of your hand. We’ve all seen various game shows on television and wondered how we’d fare under the pressure. Well, thanks to the introduction of live dealer game shows, there is now a viable product to try.

It’s worth noting that there is an emphasis on the social side of these games. This means you can have the craic with other players and the host as you play. It creates a communal experience. It’s one of the reasons these types of games have really taken off on the Emerald Isle.

Of course, we should point out that while casino gaming is completely legal in Ireland, you should always play responsibly. Licensed Irish casinos are legally obliged to offer responsible gaming tools to ensure you play within your means.
