The live games are very good. I find I can do well playing the live blackjack and baccarat.
Don't care much for the playtech RNG version of blackjack, but then again I don't like RNG blackjack on any software.
The odds with live blackjack seem much better, but I don't know why. Perhaps it is because when you play a live game it lasts much longer and so it turns into a different kind of strategy. Each game can last the same as something like 10 - 30 RNG games, which means your bankroll lasts longer; and maybe this causes you to keep your head more and pull out when you're ahead rather than keep on playing. I guess if a game lasts longer, you feel like you've spent long enough doing it and have satisfied that gambling fix. I don't know the reason, but I do seem to do better in live games, maybe it's just psychological and I trust a human dealer rather than a computerized one.
My favourite slot on there at the moment is Desert treasure, which I have done very well with of late. I have also in the past done ok playing tropic reels, and goblins cave. I once won 200 on silver bullet with a 45p wager.
I would recommend trying the live games if table games are your thing.
If slots are your thing, I would maybe try every single one, go down the list starting from the top, if you lose 5 times in a row move onto the next one, until you find one which is loose, or that you like. Haven't really noticed much difference in the payouts from playtech slots compared to microgaming, wagerlogic etc, all seem pretty much the same to me. They all seem to go through hot and cold phases, though why this is I don't know. As each spin is supposed to be purely random, and so each slot should never have hot and cold phases, should always be the same...
Finally the one really annoying thing I find with some playtech casinos, are these bloody chat boxes which popup at the most inconvenient times. I am deciding whether to hit or stand in live blackjack and I have 25 seconds to make my choice, and this chatbox suddenly appears and says : 'Hi Richard, how are you today. I have this amazing offer for you right now. Deposit before midnight tonight and you will get 40% extra.' You close the darn thing and it pops up again a few minutes later, it would be nice if playtech could allow users to disable this feature in their settings, as I have a couple of times lost my concentration and money due to them.
