5-10 tipping custom...
Sorry for the bumb post guys but I've only played 2-4 and 3-6 live and am heading down to AC tommorrow to play 5-10 at taj. My question is how much do you tip after winning a pot? I can't see throwing a dealer a red chip for a smalll stakes pot and I'll obviously have some whites from posting blinds, so is it still the standard buck from 2-4/3-6 or a little higher.
Thanks, sorry again for the waste of time. Matt |

$1 is standard. BTW, I would highly reccommend playing the Borgata 6-12 instead if you can get there early enough.

In every game you can ask the dealer to chop that game's chips into white chips. Or blue chips in LV/CA.

$1 is the standard tip all the way up to 75/150 and higher

Re: 5-10 tipping custom...
There will be whites in the pot from the rake. $1 is standard even in the very large games. I tip well because I'm in the business (floor/dealer) but I never expect anyone to tip like myself. If I'm at work and propping I tip 2-3 a pot. When I'm out playing I tip according to dealer competence, if the dealer is friendly, and pot size.

Re: 5-10 tipping custom...
Ok cool, the standard $1 tip seems to make sense, I just didn't know if it was stakes dependent. I also tip a little more if the dealer is very good or pot is large, and if it's an exceptional dealer I'll throw a buck as he/she leaves even if I don't play a pot (depending on how the night's going. Thanks for the info.
Also now I'm curious, is the 6-12 at the Borgata that much better than the 5-10 at Taj? I obviously like the Borg better but the Taj is where I first started and figured I'd head there, but if the Borg game is much better I'll convince my buddies to change it up. Thanks again and good luck, Matt |

Toss 'em a white for a pot. If its a bigger pot (20 BB+), toss 'em 2. Dealers will gladly chop up a red for you if you ask.

I've only been to a B&M once but when I was there quite a few people, who I assume were locals, that would have the dealer chop a white and tip $.5 and pocket the rest. That just seemed cheap.

Re: 5-10 tipping custom...
The Borg 6-12 is typically much better. 5-10 is a bad structure for generating action (one chip, two chip betting) and contains many rocks at Taj (though some games are better than others).
