I think his point is that a lot of people look up to these people and assume they are giving and nice people when they are not. I hear it everyday at the Bellagio. Someone will say I bet those guys tip hundreds maybe 1000's. Well thats not the case and I let people know that b/c I know the truth. I am not a dealer but a player but I am friendly with a few of them.

Trust me it is not this one in particular, they all bitch on how they are treated.

Go to www.pokerworks.com and click on table tango for a blog of one of the dealers and just read the crap she puts up with.

BTW, they are not entitled to tips but are entitled to be treated like human beings. One of my friends say she doesn't even care if they dont tip, she just wishes they wouldnt be so hateful.

I am being tipped for doing a good job. If I do good job I sould be tipped.

ok, fair enough. I do tip for good service. If you were my dealer, and didn't [censored] anything up, I'd tip you.

I make mim wage and rely on tips to live.

OK, first you say that dealers should be tipped for good service, I, and probably 99% of 2+2ers agree with that. But, no one likes a whiny ass dealer/waiter/cab driver etc, who bitches about how little their paid and how much they need tips.

YOU ARE NOT ENTITLED TO TIPS. Tips are given at the DISCRESION of the customer, if they are happy with their service. Once again, TIPS ARE NOT AN ENTITLEMENT.

[/ QUOTE ]

I disagree with this. Minimum wage was $5.15 when I was in school. When I worked as a waiter, I only made $2/hour. So how did they justify paying less than minimum wage? Because the restaurant(and the government) recognizes that tips are EXPECTED.

If you don't have money to tip, then you don't have money to use that service whether it be cards, food, or whatever else.

Unless your dealer/waiter is outright rude, he deserves to be tipped.

Just my two cents.

do you accept .50 tips?

I was at the bellagio playing 4/8 holdem and a dealer threw back my .50 tip. I refused to tip any dealers after that insult.

I refuse to tip more than .50...would you accept this as resonable at the lower limits?

Tipping is one of the worst scams in modern history. If you do not make enough on your job, get an education and get a higher paid job or learn to live with low income. I hope Penn & Teller bring this up sometime, coz it is bulls*t!

Couldn't disagree more.

A restaurant could charage $10 for a meal and no tips or they could charge $8 for a meal and request that you tip based upon service. Which method do you think will make the waiters work harder and therefore give you a better dining experience?

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?

You are kidding here right?
