Introduction: Two Ways to Play Table Games
When you visit the Table Games section at PT Gaming, you'll find two distinct types of gameplay: RNG Table Games (Random Number Generator) and Live Casino Table Games. While both offer the same classic games like Baccarat, Blackjack, and Roulette, the experience is completely different.
In this guide, we'll break down the key differences between RNG table games and live casino versions — from how they work to pacing, atmosphere, fairness verification, and which is right for you.
1. RNG Table Games Explained
RNG Table Games are digital versions of classic casino games powered by Random Number Generator technology. Here's what you need to know:
- How It Works: A Random Number Generator determines every card drawn, dice roll, or wheel spin. Outcomes are 100% random and computer-generated.
- Gameplay Speed: Fast-paced — no waiting for dealers or other players. You can play as quickly as you like.
- Atmosphere: Digital and computer-generated. You play against the computer with animated graphics.
- Fairness Verification: RNGs are regularly tested and certified by independent auditors like Gaming Labs International (GLI) or iTech Labs.
- Availability: Available 24/7 with unlimited seats. No waiting for tables to open.
- Examples: RNG Blackjack, RNG Baccarat, RNG Roulette, RNG Sic Bo.
- Best For: Players who prefer fast-paced gameplay, privacy, and the convenience of playing anytime.
Key Takeaway: RNG table games are fast, convenient, and fully random — perfect for players who want quick sessions without the social element.
2. Live Casino Table Games Explained
Live Casino Table Games bring the authentic casino experience to your screen with real dealers and real equipment. Here's what you need to know:
- How It Works: Real cards are dealt, real wheels are spun, and real dice are rolled by professional dealers in a studio. Everything is streamed to your device in real time.
- Gameplay Speed: Slower-paced — you play at the pace of the dealer and other players at the table. More time to think and strategize.
- Atmosphere: Authentic casino feel with professional dealers, real casino sounds, and the ability to chat with the dealer and other players.
- Fairness Verification: You can see the action in real time. Some games also show RNG certification alongside physical equipment.
- Availability: Available 24/7 but with limited seats per table. You may need to wait for a seat during peak hours.
- Examples: Live Baccarat, Live Blackjack, Live Roulette, Live Sic Bo, Live Dragon Tiger.
- Best For: Players who enjoy the social aspect of casino gaming, want to see real cards being dealt, and prefer a slower, more immersive experience.
Key Takeaway: Live casino games offer an authentic, social, and immersive experience with real dealers and real equipment.
3. Pacing and Atmosphere Comparison
The difference in pacing and atmosphere is one of the most noticeable distinctions between RNG and live casino table games:
- RNG Table Games:
- Fast-paced — you control the speed.
- No waiting — instant results.
- Digital atmosphere — clean, quiet, and private.
- No social interaction — you play alone.
- Perfect for quick gaming sessions.
- Live Casino Table Games:
- Slower-paced — follow the dealer's rhythm.
- Waiting time between rounds for bets to close.
- Authentic atmosphere — sounds of the casino, real dealers.
- Social interaction — live chat with dealers and players.
- Perfect for immersive, extended gaming sessions.
Key Takeaway: RNG is fast and private, while Live Casino is immersive and social. Choose based on your mood and available time.
4. Fairness Verification Differences
Both RNG and Live Casino games are fair, but they use different verification methods:
- RNG Table Games:
- Certified by independent testing labs (GLI, iTech Labs, etc.).
- Certificates are publicly available for review.
- RNG algorithms are regularly audited for randomness.
- Fairness is mathematical and algorithmic.
- PT Gaming Commitment: All RNG games are RNG-certified for complete fairness.
- Live Casino Table Games:
- Visible fairness — you see the physical cards, wheel, or dice.
- Often use both physical equipment and RNG for bonus features.
- Studios are regularly inspected for fairness and compliance.
- Some games offer "provably fair" features.
- Fairness is verified through observation and regulation.
Key Takeaway: RNG games are certified algorithmically, while live casino games are verified visibly and through regulation. Both are completely fair.
5. Which Should You Play?
Choosing between RNG and Live Casino table games depends on your preferences. Here's a quick guide:

- You want fast-paced gameplay with quick results.
