Betting Service Providers, BetMGM and Borgata Hotel Casino & Spa, Debut Hybrid Baccarat Game
February 18, 2025 - Jersey City, NJ - It's game on for online casino enthusiasts! BetMGM, a top iGaming and sports betting operator, and the iconic Borgata Hotel Casino & Spa** have teamed up to introduce a groundbreaking new experience – Dual Play Baccarat. This badass live casino game is now accessible on both BetMGM's platform and at Borgata's tables in New Jersey.
Dual Play Baccarat, powered by Evolution – a leader in live casino solutions – brings together the best of both worlds. Players seated at the physical Baccarat table and those wagering online can now play the same game in real-time. This game-changer marks the first Dual Play Baccarat available in the United States, serving a regulated U.S. market.
Thanks to multiple cameras, online players enjoy a fully immersive experience, catching every move on the table. And here's the kicker – an unlimited number of online players can join the action in real-time, making it feel like they're right there at the live table.
Oliver Bartlett, BetMGM's VP of Gaming Product & Content, says: "We're stoked about Dual Play Baccarat. It's a killer way to bring the thrill of live table games to our online casino players and connect on-property play with the games our players love."
James Bruno, Borgata's Vice President of Casino Operations, chimes in: "Borgata's been a leader in gaming innovation, and Dual Play Baccarat takes it to a whole new level. This game bridges the energy of our casino floor with the convenience of online play, offering a seamless and immersive way to play one of our favorite games."
With the arrival of Dual Play Baccarat, BetMGM continues its role as the omnichannel iGaming leader, pushing the envelope with digital and retail innovation. In August 2023, they introduced Dual Play Roulette, making history as the first Evolution Dual Play game at an MGM Resorts International North American property. Since its launch, Dual Play Roulette has become one of the top draws at Borgata, with impressive online numbers still rolling in.
Jacob Claesson, Evolution North America's CEO, declares: "Dual Play Baccarat merges land-based and online players at the same casino table, bringing a totally new experience to the US iGaming market. BetMGM is leading the charge in omnichannel initiatives, and we're psyched to partner with them as they drive innovation and deliver standout player experiences."
BetMGM's award-winning online casino offers over 5,400 titles across North American markets, boasting one of the largest state-by-state exclusive progressive jackpot networks. Popular games like MGM Grand Millions, Bison Fury, and 15 Lanterns are among the network's heralded offerings. Players can rack up BetMGM Rewards Points and Tier Credits while playing at BetMGM Casino, which can be redeemed for digital bonuses, MGM Rewards Points, and Marriott Bonvoy Points.
As BetMGM continues its expansion into new markets and introduces new features, responsible gaming remains a top priority. In addition to its existing responsible gambling tools, BetMGM offers resources to help customers play responsibly, such as the industry-leading GameSense program, developed and licensed to MGM Resorts by the British Columbia Lottery Corporation.
