The operator launched its live casino offering on Marathonbet.com today with table games including live roulette, baccarat and blackjack hosted from Evolution’s live dealer studio in Latvia.

Marathonbet has previously held betting partnerships with various English football teams such as Fulham and West Ham United, which also included title sponsorship of an annual pre-season match known as The Marathonbet Cup.
