BetMGM and Borgata Launch Dual Play Baccarat in New Jersey
Online players betting on the same baccarat table as people on the Borgata casino floor. Here is how Dual Play Baccarat works and why it matters.
New Jersey's online casino market has a new baccarat option. BetMGM and Borgata have introduced Dual Play Baccarat, which connects online players directly to a live table on the casino floor. It is one of the more interesting live dealer launches heading into 2025.
What is Dual Play Baccarat?
It is classic baccarat played from two places at once. Players sitting at a physical table in Borgata's casino play in real time, and online players bet on the same hands through a live stream from that table.
That closes the gap between online and land-based gaming. If you like the energy of the casino floor, it is there on screen. If you prefer playing from home, you get the same cards and the same dealer as the people in the room.
Features of Dual Play Baccarat
- Live and online together. You bet in real time alongside casino patrons.
- High-definition streaming. A clear video feed of the actual table.
- Multiplayer interaction. You can chat and compare notes with other players.
- Mobile play. The game works on smartphones and tablets.
- Borgata dealers. Professional croupiers run the table, just as they would for any floor game.
Why this launch matters
Two ways to play, one table
Players no longer have to choose between a trip to the casino and a session online. Both groups share the same game, which is new for baccarat in the state.
Easier access to high-roller tables
From home or on the move, you can join a live baccarat table at Borgata that would otherwise mean a trip to Atlantic City.
Better streaming
Improved HD streaming keeps the game smooth while preserving the feel of a real casino table.
The baccarat itself does not change. Banker, Player and Tie pay and carry the same odds as they would at any standard table. Our live baccarat guides explain each bet.
How to play Dual Play Baccarat
- Go to the BetMGM or Borgata official site.
- Log in or create an account.
- Open the live dealer section and choose Dual Play Baccarat.
- Place your bet and follow the hand in real time.
Because these are New Jersey casino products, access depends on the operators' own eligibility rules, so check those before signing up.
Live baccarat for players elsewhere
Dual Play Baccarat is a sign of where live dealer games are heading: real tables, shared between the room and the screen. If you are outside New Jersey and want a live baccarat table with a real dealer, you can try live baccarat on 12Win.
