Its a crazy world we live in. Reality TV and Youtube launch seemingly average individuals from obscurity to celebrity and sometimes stardom overnight. Now dealers at online casinos are looking to use their job as a stepping stone to bigger and better things.
The live dealer casino platform isn't new, but its still one of the sexier platforms offered by only a handful of net casinos. The concept is pretty simple. Rather than the games being presented by a computer program generated graphical interface, they are conducted by real dealers. Cards are dealt, or roulette wheels are turned by a live dealer, and you watch it all from you computer via a high tech video stream linked to a betting interface.
Its about the closest thing to being at terrestrial casino without actually being there. But for the live dealers, the difference has another twist. Instead of dealing to half a dozen punters sitting around a table, they may be dealing to hundreds or even thousands of players at any one time. And as the platform's popularity grows, so too does the dealer's playing audience.
There's no doubt it's an opportunity for mass exposure...but celebrity status? At least one new live dealer thinks so. New recruit at Europa Casino Emily Perkins, thinks her her new job is going to launch her to bigger and better things.
“I know that many prominent people visit Europa Casino and I think that getting my face out there will open the door for my acting career,” says Emily.
So if you happen to be playing live baccarat, blackjack or roulette at Europa look Emily up and see if you think she has the goods to take Hollywood by storm.
