Tip the dealer

[Under the Gun]

Does anybody think it is needed to tip the dealer when playing in casinos? I never do but I am actually unsure about the ettiquete or anything.

To be perfectly honest I'm not sure. We don't really have any casinos in the UK, I would like to go to USA sometime and have a casino holiday. If anyoen has the answer to this question I would really appreciate it myself. I'm quite unusual as a Brit, in that I do try to tip people quite often if I think they made the real effort in service, however I absolutely abhor standard tipping, and tips included in bills! So if anyone has frequented casinos and dabbles in tipping there, please let us know!

Obviously this only counts for real life play, as it's not possible to tip a robot ;)

It depends on the game for me, like if it's blackjack or if it's a poker tournament. If I have played blackjack for a few hours and the dealer was pretty good. Like not making too many mistakes I would give them maybe $15 / €10 . And if it was a tournament poker and I won, I would give them maybe $30 / €20. It all depends on how good they are !

Never had, and probably never will. Maybe I am too tight to tip a dealer, but you know these lads are getting paid , and probably more than I earn an hour too. Why tip ?

now if the dealer is a cute girl, maybe you could twist my hand

nope never done it. I think that these people already get wages, and they are just doing their job.
