I used to deal my dad's home game. People tipped me and nobody ever said a thing about it. I never played in this game, even with my own money, to high of stakes for me. I was also twice as fast at dealing as the fastest of them.

I also like to deal, I like it alot in fact. If it were not for school and poker still being illegal where I live (a casino 20 minutes away, but my car sucks... really, it sucks that bad), I'd try and get into dealing professionally. I might look into as when I get out of school.

I wouldn't let a dealer play and get tips at the same time. If the dealer comes back in, either a new dedicated dealer is found (no playing) or the deal rotates.
