Anybody tried these PokerTek automated poker tables and like to comment? Personally they sound far superior for the players to me...

No I didnt see that post. Is tipping the dealers fun? Watching their slow shuffling and dealing is fun? Maybe the
casinos find it fun paying their salaries? I think everyone wins here except the dealers... and apparently they are in some casinos already.

Old news.. they are already using these tables at the Hard Rock in FL. Obviously it sucks, but they do have an application that I think is valid in manging satellites.

Is tipping dealers fun? Since it means I'm winning, sure. I'd love to get to tip the dealers every hand.

Slow shuffling and dealing? They've got automatic shufflers now, and good dealers aren't slow at all.

Maybe the casinos find it fun paying their salaries? Well, since the tip is basically what dealers live off of, their $4.50 an hour or whatever isn't killing most of these card rooms.

Keep my cards and my chips thank you. If I want to play online poker, I'll stay home.

I've always wondered about these things - how do you keep other people from looking at your screen? Is there a little hood over it or something?
