For those who come to Vegas (whether visiting or any locals), I just got a job as a poker dealer at Ballys Casino. I'm very excited about it. I just graduated from Poker dealing school and after only one audition I was hired 15 mins later (yes, I'm tooting my own horn). My first day is tommorrow. I don't think I'll be dealing for the first couple of weeks as I'll be in training and probably be a brush. But it's going to be exciting when I get into a dealer rotation and run a game...Haven't been this excited about a job since my first job as a BusBoy when I was 16.

Hey do us a favour and follow up on this, would you? I'm not considering being a dealer or anything but I'd really like to hear how it goes. I'm sure there would be some neat stories.

I don't mean to get personal, but how much do poker dealers make?

What school did you go to?

congrats!

Right on!

Just remember not to crawl under the table the first time you burn and turn too early and cost a guy a pot. [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]
