    I am not saying that they are cheating. I am saying that just because you see the dealer and the cards, it does not mean that there is no scope for cheating.

    I agree with GrandMaster about it doesn't mean that there is no scope for cheating when playing with Live Dealer. But I must say that there more less methods to cheat, than when you are playing usual games (not Live, I mean). On one of russian online forums I found many threads marked smthng like "How they can cheat..." and players discussed it many times. The main goal is that Live Dealer is limited in his/her actions to cheat, especcially if you can see him/her. But...casinos may use roulette wheel which are made with some "upgrade" (width of one-number section may be changed, f.e., or may install special mechanism which allow a little acceleration/inhibition of roulette wheel - using these methods dealers may enforce the wheel to stop when they want). And if you have slow or bad connection (or casinos may transmit low-quality video) - you cannot see these small details.
    And in this case casinos may decrease players's chance to win.

    I agree that is not impossible for them to cheat.

    But considering that is almost always more than one player on every Roulette spin, like Baccarat, rigging Roulette for long term profit would be a very difficult and risky thing to do.

    Agreed. Not only would it be really risky but it isn't as if these games arent built to have a fairly sizeable house advantage. There is no reason to "rig" anything because the advantage is already built into the games. I never understood why some casinos/software would do this. It is amazing.

    I've found live blackjack at:

    Dublin bet
    Vegas Red
    Europa Casino
    Bet Fred (burried in their lobby)

    good luck.
