Tips

Here in the UK tipping the dealer is quite simple: you don't: its illiegal to tip any casino staff.

I'm planning a poker holiday in the USA and would appriciate some advice on tipping in US casinos eg what percentage of a pot is appropiate?

Tip the dealers when you win a pot. An extremely large tip is not required, but don't be a stiff either. $1 per pot is somewhat standard, although plenty tip more, especially in larger pots. Stealing the blinds does not require a tip. Tip your waitress for your drinks, and give the chip runner a buck when they bring you your chips! Live cardrooms require tipping!
