BetMGM Thursday announced the opening of its live private dealer studio in Michigan.

Built through a partnership with Evolution, a  Swedish B2B supplier of live casino content, the new studio gives online players an opportunity to interact with live dealers and other players at blackjack, roulette, and baccarat igaming tables of varying price points.

“This beautiful new studio enhances BetMGM’s live casino experience in Michigan and deepens our partnership with Evolution,” said BetMGM Director of Gaming Oliver Bartlett in a statement. “Inspired by the MGM Resorts brand, the studio is adorned with the iconic golden lion and the familiar black and gold BetMGM color scheme. We’re confident that it will amplify our market-leading casino offering in Michigan.”

BetMGM first launched live dealers in Michigan in July 2021. The sports-betting operator currently holds a 39% market share in the state.

“As we set out to create a unique feel that players would love, the BetMGM studio in Michigan is one of the grandest we’ve built,” said Evolution Commercial Director North America Jeff Millar. “We’re excited to continue our work within the state of Michigan, while strengthening our ongoing partnership with BetMGM.”
