UK Dealer Championships Returns to the London Casino and Gaming Show
The UK Dealer Championships is set to make a comeback at the London Casino and Gaming Show, taking place at ExCeL London from January 14-16, 2023. This competitive event, now a staple of the show, will showcase the skills of professional casino dealers in games such as blackjack and roulette, and is open to all professionals at a table [1].
The championship, which started in 2016, has grown to become one of the most highly regarded competitions in the industry. It serves as a live demonstration of dealer expertise and gaming operations, providing entertainment and educational value for visitors [2]. The tournament encompasses one day with intensive sessions and multiple rounds for showcasing skills in different games and scenarios [2].
The competition is confined to dealers currently employed in British venues, with nominations made by their respective operators [3]. The panel of experts responsible for setting the competition standards includes experienced casino managers, former champions, and senior figures from the UK's casino sector [4].
The winners of the UK event will receive a trophy, a prestigious title, and a £2,000 prize; second place will receive £1,000, and third place will receive £500 [5]. There are also awards for winning specific technical events [6].
Martin Burlin, EAG chairman, announced the tournament following discussions with Nicola Lazenby, show director, Nick Harding, show ambassador, and Murat Salih, Director of Live Table gaming at London's Hippodrome Casino [7]. Murat Salih, who has been with the Hippodrome for 12 years, is in charge of organizing the tournament annually [8].
The UK Dealer Championships is expected to attract many casino principals, who may bring senior management and dealers with them [9]. The tournament will take place at the London Casino and Gaming show on January 15, 2023, with all equipment used in the competition supplied by TCSJohnHuxley [1].
In addition to the UK event, Murat Salih also oversees the European Dealer Championships, welcoming competitors from across the Continent [10]. The UK Dealer Championships at the London Casino and Gaming Show serves as a significant draw for the event, elevating its profile and providing a dynamic, interactive element that complements the trade and business-focused aspects of the exhibition [2].
