Las Vegas |
I was dealing single
deck blackjack in the high limit area and my table
minimum was $200.
This well known
high roller and
George walked in and sat
down at my table. He changed in $50,000 and both my floorman and
assistant shift manager, Jordan, were watching. Jordan knew this
player and knew he was a
George so he walked over to him,
shook his hand, said hello and then leaned over and said to him,
“Our policy has changed, you can’t tip the dealers here sir.” I was
fuming mad but I couldn’t say anything. The
high roller just nodded
his head and sat down and started playing. After about 2 or 3
hands
the high roller stood up, pushed his entire pile of
chips towards me
and said, “This is your tip.” Then he looked at Jordan and said,
“Nobody is going to tell me what I can and can’t do with my money.”
Then he walked away. We lost a good
George that day because
he never came back but I think we made about $450 in tips. That is a
huge amount! The average tips we make per day is $100.
A lot of dealers hated Jordan after that.
