DRAMA BOMB!dont all the major tournaments pull extra cash for dealers now? i know WSOP does, i guess i just assumed. tipping $50 is a pretty ******* move, like leaving a nickel on the table, better to leave nothing.

A dealer at my school actually said he would've preferred the guy leaving nothing. He looks like a huge ****** leaving $50. Link to post Share on other sites

He looks like a huge ****** leaving $50.How is leaving something worse than leaving nothing? If he would have left nothing, they'd still be complaining right, or is the hubbub just because he left such a small amount?Mark Link to post Share on other sites

It's basically a slap in the face. Link to post Share on other sites

sprfcta 0 Posted May 7, 2007 Share Posted May 7, 2007 I heard Corey say he left 3500 or so....Sounds like you may as well leave nothing, if that's what people are going to say anyway. Link to post Share on other sites
GetSprung 0 Posted May 7, 2007 Share Posted May 7, 2007 I heard Corey say he left 3500 or so....Sorry to say, but you probably heard wrong. A dealer said the tip was good from 2nd place(looshle obv.) but first place left only $50. My instructor(Caesar's dealer) said the staff was pretty upset about it after the tournament. No idea why they'd lie about it, especially to a room full of people who want to do this for a living. Link to post Share on other sites

How much of that do the dealers get? Link to post Share on other sites

How much of that do the dealers get? I'm under the impression that the dealers get their wage plus tips and that the % taken from the entry fee does not get split among the dealers.If there are any casino tournament dealers here, please post what you know.
