Why does matchmaking take so long in online casino games?
Greetings all - has anyone had issues with online match making, particularly in live games? I've recently been trying to play on online casinos, but have found the wait to get matches quite frustrating. Perhaps other users know if some game rooms are better than others?

I hate waiting to enter a live-casino game. Why? There are several reasons: Server capacity and the number of available players both can cause delays; peak hours overload servers, causing delays in processing requests; the mechanics of a game also affect wait times – after all, a live dealer must be seated at a table with everything set up properly before a game can start; sometimes players just haven’t noticed other “instant access” rooms (for example, VIP or express rooms); mobile versions of games often run more slowly than their desktop counterparts; and finally, slow Internet connections can contribute to longer wait times. The best strategy is to avoid peak hours if possible, and to check out casinos with faster matching. Players’ forums are another good source of information about the fastest websites.
Finally, long sessions may be a reflection of the number of players at your game table. When playing live casino games, a certain number of players is needed, and setting up a room can take time. Play during non-peak hours, or look for games that feature “instant play. ” Some rooms set up faster than others, while random number generator (RNG) games (slots and virtual roulette) don’t require any setup. Wish you luck, and let me know what else you find about room setups.
