The game is streamed from OnAir Entertainment’s^TM cutting-edge studio which uses the latest and best in industry chroma key technology which is perfectly synched with game flow due to low latency video streaming.

Dejan Loncar, Business Development Manager at OnAir Entertainment^TM, said: “StreamIcon^TM is a true innovation in the live casino space, allowing us to take any slot game and spin it into a live dealer title that delivers unrivalled levels of player engagement and entertainment.

“9 Pots of Gold^TM is the perfect game to introduce StreamIcon^TM to the market; it is hugely popular with players in jurisdictions around the world and the addition of a live host really does take the action to the next level.

“It is innovations like StreamIcon^TM and game launches like 9 Pots of Gold^TM StreamIcon^TM Edition that ensure OnAir Entertainment^TM stands out from its rivals and is also why we have quickly become the live casino provider of choice for tier-one operators and forward-thinking online casino brands.”

Matthew Carvajal, Creative Design Lead at Gameburger Studios added: “9 Pots of Gold^TM is one of our flagship titles and to see it reintroduced as a live dealer game is a great moment for us. It has been incredible fun working with the OnAir team and the result is a game that will take the market by storm.”
