Their salary factors in the tips they get. So if you dont tip them, you are in turn giving them a pay cut. Do they deserve a cut in pay? Maybe if they're doing a shitty job. But otherwise you're just being a dick.

A kid to my left didn't tip the dealer after winning like 3 or 4 pots in a row. The next hand the dealer "accidentally" threw his cards off the table and had to declare his hand dead.

At turning stone the dealers make minimum wage and a large portion of their salary comes from tips. I'm not a huge tipper, but you gotta give 'em something.

The dealer's a bigger d*ck then the guy who didn't tip. What a little girl.

Did you think that the first thread got accidentally locked, and we needed this awesome discourse?

Who gives a f*ck what you do.

I'm trying to figure out why the first thread was locked, and why everyone here is a whiny bitch. Little help?

So the OP doesn't like tipping. Neither do I. Any place with a billion percent profit margin shouldn't have to rely on tips to pay their dealers . . . the only reason they pay their dealers minimum wage, if they do, is that they know that the players will, through tips, still make the dealer's true wage $20+/hour or more.

These aren't like overworked middle-aged women working double shifts at Denny's, scrambling to survive on $2.50 an hour plus a buck-a-meal tips after their husbands went and left them for the trailer trash down the street.

I'm not as extreme as the OP -- I tip a buck after big pots, a buck every-other-regular-sized-postflop-pot. And I'd certainly tip in the casino restaurant. But these dealers aren't starving to death if they don't get a buck for every hand they deal, for crissake.

(On the other hand, the OP's handle is . . . well, stupid.)
