Earlier I posted this as a respone on the Mid-High Stakes forum in a slightly different form All opinions are appreciated;
When I see short dealers sitting on pillows, cushions or other height increasing paraphernalia I tend to tip them over more often than taller dealers with a lower center of gravity. Alas this is just personal preference but I do not like to expend the extra energy required to tip over a short fat dealer nor a tall husky dealer due to the risk of reward ratio of bodily harm vs: tipping pleasure.
I am sure my way of dealer tipping will not sway those of you determined to tip all dealers but please be careful and do not try this at a home game. For those of you determined to never tip, you are missing a great deal of stress relieving pleasure and you all have my pity.
In closing leave tipping to we professionals who are best able to determine the proper physics calculations for maximum player safety and minimum dealer damage.
