Fiona Gallagher

With CasinoRank since January 2022

Fiona Gallagher reviews live dealer casinos and real-time gaming platforms for LiveCasinoRank. She was born in Dublin, and her interest in live casino started while travelling in Europe: the tables in Monte Carlo showed her how much of a land-based casino's atmosphere can carry over to a live stream.

Outside work she travels, goes to live music and follows new gaming technology.

How Fiona works

What Fiona looks at in a live casino

Fiona's earlier roles were in live dealer evaluation and platform analytics, so she knows which details separate one live lobby from another and how to check them. A live casino review from her covers the operator's licence and payment flow as well as the tables themselves.

At the tables she looks at the things that decide whether live play feels reliable: the stream, the dealers, the pace of rounds and the tools around the table, such as chat, bet history and statistics. She then turns those findings into plain steps a player can use.

I break casinos down by usability, fairness and technology, then explain what I find clearly, so players can make better choices.

Questions for Fiona

Which trend in live casino interests you most?

Hybrid formats and better streaming, because they close the gap between a land-based table and playing at home. Mobile play across devices is changing how people use live tables too.

What do you prioritise in a live dealer review?

Stream quality, dealer professionalism, the pace of the game and the table tools, such as chat and bet history. Those decide whether a live table feels reliable.

How do you turn technical findings into advice?

I reduce them to clear steps and ratings a player can use straight away: what to watch for and how to choose safely.

What does your role cover beyond single reviews?

I help shape our review standards and work with newer reviewers on method and transparency, so our guides and comparisons stay consistent.

What would you tell someone new to live dealer games?

Start at low-stakes tables to learn the pace and how the dealer runs the game, and choose a casino with clear chat and support. Check verification and withdrawals before you deposit larger amounts. Read our responsible gaming page first.
