Tipping Dealers

[Davidvictorson]

Recently a man tipped a waiter a car¹. Tipping is a way of saying you are satisfied with the service offered and you are saying thanks. From what I know about tipping dealers, you can either choose to tip a chip or a sidebet². It is a norm in the United States. For those who have ever tipped a dealer, have you been so satisfied with a dealer that you tipped them something other than a chip, money ?

I rarely play in live casinos since the pandemic, but in the few times that I was able to get my hands on real cards and play real blackjack, I tipped the waiter not out of satisfaction but out of empathy. Keep in mind that this is during the period at which COVID-19 is losing social media traction, and offices/businesses are starting to react by reopening and reactivating operations.

I tipped the dealer because I know for a fact that they had the same rough year as I do, to give them some money to work with so they don't have to starve for the day given the fact that not everyone got paid once they started gettign back to work you know. Still to this day, it was one of the most satisfying donations (if you can even call it that) I have ever made, no regrets whatsoever.

Yes, it is completely normal to tip the dealer you can see them often at poker tables or roulette when someone is leaving the table they will give them a chip or stack. And you're right its a way of saying thanks to them and also its considered as oride status, if you don't tip they might look like you an alien but in some countries you don't because where tipping is seen as some kind of bad behaviour so just adapt to it where you are playing.

Tipping is one of the other source of income for the dealer and most of the time they earn more from this compare to their salary. You gave tips because you are satisfied for their services and for sure that guy enjoyed well playing with that dealer. Tipping a car a big one, lucky for that dealer maybe that gambler won millions of money. Tipping is fine for me as long as I make profit.

I don't play in live casinos and it's not that common to tip the dealer in an online game. I mean it happens, but it's much easier to walk away since you're anonymous, so people don't do it as often as in real situations.
When I go to a real casino I play slots so I don't tip. I'm also from the EU and unlike the Americans, we don't tip often here. I once saw Americans complain that people in Europe don't tip at all, but the general opinion here is that you need to provide exceptional service to get a tip. You are paid for doing your job and a tip is not a right but a reward.

Tipping seems more like a culture in physical casinos especially those ones around me here
There is this feeling tat you have to give something to people present as a show of encouragement and most times it is just impossible not to tip either the dealers or maybe the gamblers present as at the time of your winning.
If on days and occasion when I win over $100 in my local currency, I possibly tip out $10 of my converted currency to people within the bet house and this also a way to encourage the gamblers over there not to give up and a way to also say thank you to the dealers for a smooth payment.

Is this the biggest tip ever recorded?
I can’t imaging how good the dealer is by giving such a car, for sure the player also won big money. I don’t always give a tip even if I’m satisfied about their services since I’m on a limited budget and I can’t afford to give away a money even if I won, not unless I hit the jackpot maybe it will change my mind.

^ For me, it is generally seen as a way to express gratitude for good service, while tipping with cash or chips is the most common way to show appreciation for a dealer's work, it is not unheard of to tip with something more unusual. But on my side, I will not give tips once I lose, I give tips when I am in a winning situation. However, they know already that tipping should never be seen as mandatory or expected, while it is a way to show appreciation only. That is a lucky dealer who has received car as a tip, probably that player who gave tip has won a big amount.

If it's related to casinos, it's probably not. I don't know how much the car would cost but I think this is higher than that if not the highest.

One time in the mid-‘90s when he won $26 million at the MGM Grand, he tipped each dealer on duty $2,500, which added up to $105,000.

AFAIK, she's not a dealer but a waitress and they're inside a restaurant based on the video that's also included in that article.

I think the topic is good that it relates to tipping after the gesture being done by mrbeast and it's part of American culture to tip but not in most parts of the world. I've tipped also before but barely amount like a dollar or five.

[crzy]

Tipping is a good gesture of saying thank you for the service, but it looks like this is not in the casino?
Though the question is about the dealer and I have a lot of friends who are making a decent money by just receiving a tips, this is why they are also being trained to be more polite and generous, because casinos will always practice hospitality, this is a win win situation for both casinos and the dealers.

Yeah, when I play in a baccarat table in a traditional based casinos, I gave tips to dealers specially if the hand is good, like hitting a tie or both draws as it is very rare to hit that one. Just a chip tip and the dealer appreciate it.

And I guess it's normal to give tips to them from time to time, at least that's how I saw like the norm when I started to play table games in a land base casino. Even in hotels or restaurants or any other services, most of the time people give tips.

Giving a tip is normal for a casino player as far as I know and understand it. I just read something in this article that in the US estate win or lose you are obligated to tip the dealer, correct?

    Now if this Mrbeast who is a popular youtube influencer on social media gave a car as a tip, I don't think he did it for real. Because most of the well-known influencers, the content they create is only scripted for views and content only.

It seems that they make a lot of money being content creators and they also take advantage of their millions of followers for the sake of money. So for me it's just another show, it just looks real because he hired great actors and actresses to make content.

seems true that MrBeast gave a car. such amount is no big deal for him because of what he is earning from this kind of stunt. however, a lot are commenting that it maybe is also for advertisement for his chocolate venture. in any case, some can really do afford to tip huge amount if they are indeed making good money. there's nothing wrong with that so long it is sincere. if not, just be happy tipping your dealer with how much money you can afford.

For a much better and more accurate response, a person who always lurks at the physical casinos should respond here lol.

Based on my stuck knowledge, referring to OP's mentioned situation, a tip can be in any form, regardless.

Here in the country, like for example "perya" or local games, tipping can be the same as giving money to the one who put some luck to the winning bettor.

Even though I can't tip dealers in crypto casinos, there were a couple of moments where I wanted to tip the dealer as he/she made the rounds more enjoyable than usual.

For me, the only time i'll tip anything aside from money is when I have something valuable on me and they have a maximum limit when it comes to tips. Looking at the dealer's perspective it's more convenient when they get their tips in cash.

I used to deal poker in private games and I only made money if tipped. Usually averaged out to 40-50$ per hour. In that game we kept all our tips, but that's not the case in casinos and other private games. I know 1 game that pays their dealers $20 per hour+tips. Casinos sometimes pay dealers an hourly wage and make all dealers split tips evenly between all who are on a shift.

I think in the USA it's pretty standard to tip the dealer a minimum of $1 per hand. Depending on the stakes of the game being dealt, people usually tip a lot more.

Before the pandemic when I was way more active at gambling at psychical casinos I always tipped with a sidebet, if you just give the tip away then the dealer will accept it and be done with it, however by tipping with a sidebet you involve the dealer and now he will cheer for you as well instead of being grumpy when you win, and if you also specify that the dealer only gets the winnings but not the bet itself then you can give several tips with the same bet if you happen to win several times in a row, giving the dealer a higher amount of money than if you just gave the tip away.

[Chikito]

have you been so satisfied with a dealer that you tipped them something other than a chip, money ?

Actually, I wanted to give them a tip like a chip, but sometimes I get to think if they already have a lot of money from casinos and are discouraged. But, this is not for a poker dealer who always sits dealing cards to gamblers, I will give him tips If I finished the game by winning, So it also depends on what game we have playing, if the dealer does seem to be hard working, we should give him tips as a reward, not a bribe for giving a good card.

Yeah, I think that's what the norm for dealers, they share the tips evenly for that shift, at least that's how my friends who is a dealer would tell me. Now it is mandatory, really depends on the individual, but usually they tip if the table is lively and more fun and they are getting the better of the dealer, so they gave them like $10-$20.

And that's how dealers make big money, just imagine how much they are getting in a day, it could range from like $20-$100 split evenly between them and it could be enough for their daily expenses and might not touch their salaries.

[len01]

a tip is a form of customer satisfaction for something a dealer does when gambling. e.g. a customer gets good cards in a poker bet a few times and that's what I usually do but only gives cash tips but I do that very rarely.
of course every gambler has experienced tipping the dealer when he got something good on that bet and what's even more ridiculous is some gamblers, I dunno, said he tipped the dealer for a good hand, I laughed at what he did. say such nonsense.
on the other hand, tips are only a form of appreciation for customer satisfaction to dealers or customer satisfaction at the casino itself, not giving tips for winnings.
