any poker dealers in the house??


Recommended Posts

I have a question to poker dealers, I understand that in your training and pre-interview there is a math test. I am wondering how hard these questions are and if you could give me a couple of example questions and any additional information u could give me.thank you

Ive been to a lot of brick and mortar casinos and the men and women there dont exactly look like einstein.......I was taking it serious but then was like why would a dealer need to know shapes and there was nothing about basic multipication ....but thanks for the post none the less

I was waiting to see who would be the first to be stupid enough to quote the whole thing. :roll:
So was I, I was also wondering how few of letters the actual reply would be. I said 8, I was way off, only 2.
