....And its prety muchguaranteed job, anyone who shows up in Vegas w/ a heart beat that wants to deal can alway get a job for 4-6 weeks during the series.
You know, I think this is pretty solid advice. The WSOP is flooded with break in dealers so any mistakes you make will sort of blend in with the sea of mistakes being made every hour. Plus, you get the benefit of dealing all different stakes and levels of pressure.
As stated above, its almost a guaranteed job even if you can't deal pot limit or draw games, I've seen dealers get the job that couldn't do these things (although it wouldn't hurt to learn in the meantime if you do want to do this). The money used to be better but it is definitely worth the experience to deal it at least once. The lights, cameras, Pros, money, and thousands of people crammed into the Rio convention center is pretty cool the first year. Ironically, most of those things are a pain in the ass the second year but this is definitely something worth looking into since you are breaking in this time of year.
