Do random number generators work, in short

The question "Do random number generators work?" leads back to the studio. A live casino game is filmed there, streamed to the player and settled by software that reads the result from the video. Each step adds some delay and some room for error, and each has rules of its own in the info panel. Knowing the chain explains most of what feels odd at a live table, from frozen screens to rejected bets.

Results are read from the video by recognition software, which records each card, number or wheel position before paying out. When the software cannot read a result clearly, the dealer repeats the action or the round is voided, and stakes are returned under the rules in the info panel. Misread results are rare, and the game history shows each recorded outcome, which is the reference support uses when a player disputes a round.

Studios run many tables at once, each with its own dealer, cameras and a floor manager watching the room. Dealers work in shifts, so the face at a table changes every half hour or so without the game stopping. Several operators often share one studio and show the same table under their own branding, which is why two different sites can display an identical dealer and card shoe at once.

Game shows mix a live host with a random number generator. The wheel, the dice or the host are real, while bonus rounds and multipliers are often drawn by software and only shown on screen. The return figure for these games is published per bet type and varies more than at classic tables. Reading which parts of a show are physical and which are generated explains why the same show can feel generous one hour and thin the next.
