Dealers most hated and stiff report

[kchammer]

I was shocked at the number of top pro stiffs when I moved to las vegas. To be a stiff is one thing but to be a huge dick is another. The tv protrays these top pros as great human biengs but the fact is most top pros are asshoes. I wish the public could see what I see!. #1 ahole is a tie
J Chan and Sammy are the worst humans to play the game

You think most athletes are good people? Most are somewhere along the lines of Kenny Rogers. Its just the way of the world, very few people in this world can remain grounded when they get fame and fortune. Im sure not all famous poker players are bad, you just picked the Kenny Rogers's of poker.

Also people can have bad days you know. Some days people just dont feel like dealing with crap it happens maybe you caught them on a bad day.

when you say 'stiff' do you mean they tip too lightly or not at all?

Generally the higher the limit someone plays the less they tip (not a lower per centage, less on absolute terms). In most high limit games if there isnt' something built in for the dealer the dealer gets nothing.

stiff means nothing
I mean nadda. Its unreal the higer the limit the less you get. Those high limit players want a perfect deal in all aspects ,treat you like a peion ,blame you for the draw of the cards and then tip nothing. In a $4 - 8 game I make like 20 bucks in a down (30 Mins) In the big game $4000/8000 if I am lucky I might get a Fiver from one player if he crushed it. The prop bets they make can be as high as 50 k per hand on top of a pot that is 40 to 50 k, 1 dollars seems reasoable to me I chose this profession I just wanted a place to let everone know how it realy is. You would think that if they blame us for the bad cards they woul be nicer to get better cards. These guys are real rocket scientist

when you deal, do you toss each player you cost money to a buck?

if you don't feel responsible for costing some players money why do you feel entitled to be compensated by the players whom win money?

I was playing some drunken 4/8 at Foxwoods the othetr night, when one of the dealers said they had spread 75/150 stud the other night and the total tips taken out of the box for his shift was $25

tips = To insure promt service. I am not being tipped because of mistakes or giving winning cards. I am being tipped for doing a good job. If I do good job I sould be tipped. I make mim wage and rely on tips to live. If it was up the casino to provide me with all of my income I am sure they could increase the rake a couple of bucks per hand, but this would, for sure decrease the quailty of dealers as who would care, they get payed, tip or no tip. It was a joke as to say to get good cards they should be nicer, like I can control the deck.
