Default Re: a thought on tipping dealers

I dunno, Ray. Another way to look at it is that if technology speeds up the game to 90 hands per hour, then your earn is going to go way up, so you also reap these benefits. I think that toking dealers by the hand can encourage some of them to want to deal as efficiently as possible, so that they get the most money possible (and those deserve the money, since they are making you more money). Of course, most dealers are too retarded to notice any of this, and fail to realize that time = money.

Then again, if the games are too fast, I think you'll end up playing smaller games, and your earn will go down, since the live ones will get broke too quickly, much like playing too big of games in markets that can't support it. If this is the case, then I would agree that tipping per hand would become very bad. In fact, there is more than just a little merit to this, and I probably lean a little towards this argument, but I figured I would present both sides.
