Re: Question from Gambling Theory & Other Topics
Your experience is interesting too. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]
I've only played at 5 or 10 minimum bet craps. All the dealers I've come across had the payouts memorized for the minimum bet (and the minimum for hard way and yo-11 bets for 1 dollar).
I haven't seen many dealers screw up the coloring up (that wasn't caught), but I would defer to your experience on that one as you've clocked more hours and probably watched the color ups more carefully than I did. I have watched color ups and they all seemed to go properly. Most of the dealers I've seen also could tell the number of chips by height, but still double-checked them.
I agree with you about what Mason was saying. I would still consider selectively correcting the dealers to be unethical, but it's unethical to about the lowest degree I can imagine. It seems to me that Mason is speaking in theoretical terms anyway and certainly not advocating that sort of behavior.
I think I might have to watch some more craps to decide whether I agree with Mason given what you've said.
And your casino does sound a little more likely to have mistakes than other ones. :P
