Message: [QUOTE="StormRaven, post: 1258487, member: 53047"] I don't really mind the tipping, and my last few sessions I have made it a point to not tip more than $10 for any pot (I play mostly $2/$5 during the summer as there are enough people to keep a game going at this level). One of the biggest problems I have at my casino is that the dealer tips are pooled. I don't agree with that at all. Some dealers just suck, or have bad attitudes, or don't give a rats azz about controlling the table and therefore I don't feel they deserve a portion of my tips. I do tip less when I have one of those dealers on the table. The other night I only gave this dealer $1 per pot, even when I won a few pots that were $400+. The other dealers suffer for it I know but I'm not tipping big to a dealer that's an azz. I told mgmt about it as well, another dealer overheard my conversation and when the bad dealer got up for break I saw 3 dealers go to him and talk to him. When he was back on another table I noticed his attitude was better. Anywho, as a side note. Like at most casino's there is a waiting list to get on the tables. Our casino gives out pagers. I had 15 people ahead of me when I got there Friday evening and I had only been waiting 10 minutes when mgmt came over and put me on a table ahead of the list. Not fair I know, but I know they do this because I'm a good customer with a good attitude. Does the extra tipping help? It might. But like I said, all this past week I made sure to not tip over $10 for any of the big pots and so far it hasn't had any affect on how I'm "favored" in the poker room by many staffers and I would like to say that it helped my bottom line, probably did, but unfortunately I ran pretty bad this week. Maybe I'll notice the lower tipping better next week if I can get back on my good game. [/QUOTE]
