Sometimes there is a tendency for live dealer casinos to have minimums that are higher than what is found in an automated casino. That will put more of the customer's bankroll at risk. Some customers are averse to that. The "live" environment is one that affords a unique experience, and thus, carries with it a premium, because the casino operator that features it has to lease the live casino from one of the companies - the "vendor," if you will - that produces it.
