Which game categories BetMGM lists, what each of them actually is, and what we could and could not confirm.
BetMGM lists table and card games and live dealer games. The operator puts the whole catalogue at around 3,500 games, counting every category together. This page looks across the lobby as a whole — what each category is, how the formats differ and which of them we could actually confirm. Slot machines get their own page: see slots for reels, features and the numbers behind them.
| Catalogue size (as listed) | about 3,500 games, all types |
| Categories listed | Table and card games, Live dealer games |
| What we saw ourselves | no title list could be captured |
| Mobile | Yes, app available |
Figures marked as listed come from BetMGM; the snapshot line is what our own check of the lobby returned.
Read 3,500 as the widest possible count. Every category goes into it, and what any individual account can actually open is a smaller number decided by province, licence and the operator's own arrangements.
Set against our own pass, we could not verify it against the lobby at all. We would rather show the gap than quote the headline as though we had counted it.
We could not capture a title list from BetMGM. The lobby did not return one to an ordinary visit — some operators only load their catalogue behind a login, or serve a different shelf depending on the region. The category list above is what the brand states; we are not going to fill the gap with games we did not see.
Side by side, the difference is pace and how often you act:
| Category | Pace of a round | What the player decides |
|---|---|---|
| Table and card games | medium | the player acts on every hand |
| Live dealer games | slow, set by the studio | limited to betting windows |
Descriptive, not measured: these are properties of the formats themselves, the same at any operator that carries them.
The categories are not just shelves. They differ in pace and in how much the player actually does:
Table and card games — Outcomes still come from a random generator, but the player chooses when to hit, stand, split or raise, so the sequence of decisions is theirs. Live dealer games — A human dealer runs the table on video and the round only moves when the studio moves it. That fixed rhythm makes a session longer per round than anything played against software.
A live table is a scheduled thing. Bets open, bets close, the dealer acts, and none of it waits for you — which makes it the slowest corner of the lobby and, for the same reason, the hardest to play absent-mindedly.
Practically: expect higher minimums than the RNG versions of the same games, and expect connection quality to matter in a way it never does on a slot. A frozen stream during a betting window is a missed hand, not a glitch you can replay.
Many titles run in a practice mode with fake credits, which is the cheapest way to learn whether a game's pace suits you. It shows the things a description cannot: how long a round takes, how often anything happens, how the interface behaves.
Two limits worth knowing. Demo mode is not offered on live tables, because a real dealer and a real table cannot be simulated for free. And some regions require an account before any game loads, practice mode included.
Large lobbies are navigated, not read. The tools that matter:
Different formats consume time differently, and that matters more than it sounds. A fast round played repeatedly gets through a balance quicker than a slow one at the same stake — not because the maths differ, but because there are more of them per hour. Live tables are the natural brake here: the dealer sets the pace and you cannot speed it up.
Setting a limit before starting works better than deciding mid-session. There is more on that on the responsible gambling page.
Catalogues are not static, and the rate of change says something. An operator adding titles every month is paying for fresh supply; one whose lobby looks the same year on year is running on an old integration. Neither is a verdict on its own, but a stale catalogue tends to come with a stale everything else.
The practical version: what we recorded is a snapshot with a date on it, and by the time you read this the shelves will have moved somewhat.
That is the figure the operator lists, and it counts every category together — slots, tables, live rooms and specialty titles. We could not verify it against the lobby, so it stands as the operator's claim.
Not necessarily. Canada regulates this province by province, and studios add their own territorial limits, so two accounts can see two catalogues.
On their own page. Reel formats, features, RTP and volatility are all handled in the slots section rather than repeated here.
Usually yes — operators count live tables alongside everything else. It is one reason a headline number can look larger than the slot selection alone.
