Default Re: altercation w/ dealer and floor at Bellagio

I honestly wonder if part of the problem is how little some dealers and floormen understand poker, certainly in comparison to things like blackjack.

In blackjack, skipping a player actually saves the player money.

But in poker, it doesn't work that way. A dealer error costs the player money and typically not the house. If you can expect to make 2 BB/hr (which should be difficult at 4/8 with tip/rake), one hand with $30 in it really may have cost you two hours of play. Crazy.
