This doesn't help the problem of the runner bringing chips to the wrong player.

Wrong player won't have the little black chip to trade for the real chips.

Most places don't give lammers to players. If you are going to do that you may as well just have the chip runner carrying chips and give those to the player.

Any active groups where I could get into contact with Aria regs?

Situation is as follows: This occurred during the winter months of 2014/early 2015. A reg in the 10/25 plo games have me an mgm flag and told me that he would swap it back during the end of the session. I forget and am left with this chip.

I attempt to cash it this year as I am back in Vegas and the mgm confiscated it despite thorough playing history at multiple mgm properties. They say that they need the full name of the player who gave the chip in order for it to be returned to me.

What I know about the player in question:

First name is Lee
White, middle aged man
Has a place in Vegas
Was a reg in the 10/25 plo aria games at some point

If anyone knows who this is or can direct me to a place where I'm more likely to find someone who does please help me out.

Thanks

No I do not think this player was a professional. He atleast had other avenues of making money.

Yup, don't loan chips. You can remember, "Seat 8 owes Seat 3 $27." You can probably remember, "Seat 5 owes $12 to seat 3, and $19 to seat 7."

Any more than that, I stop the game. "Sorry, fellas, but we need to settle these accounts before my brain tries to take on any more...and I didn't bring a pencil."

This is spectacular.

And in the first instance he had $20 in white to sell for the $20 bill so he could have just done that rather than lend him chips.

You're shorthanded and have ****ty policies. You could ask for more support on this issue from management, but you already know they're not going to help. If they cared they'd already have done something.

All you can do is your best.

Does any dealer here work at The Orleans in Las Vegas? please pm me I have a few questions.

Are dealers allowed moustaches? For the life of me I cant remember if iv ever seen one on a dealer, but that cant be right, can it?

depends which property gonzo. Venetian doesnt allow facial hair for men

Seems like a sexist policy.

it is women are allowed to have ear rings, but men are not

I deal table games in Southern California and the vast majority of our casinos don't pool tips, and I can say from experience that there are many dealers that have had 4 to 5 figure earning days in tips. The 5 figure days are rare of course but our high limit rooms have players giving decent action and have 6 figure swings regularly; nothing like Vegas of course but enough to have dealers make a ridiculous amount of money in one night.

The "fairness" issue is definitely a hot issue depending on the place and the working environment but at the end of the day, it's just part of the job and the world is not fair either. Attractive females make far more than male counterparts but every dog can have their day and make a lot of money in a short amount of time.

Carnival games and blackjack are by far the biggest earning tables for dealers and Roulette and Craps are by far the worst. We are the only state that deals "card craps" and "mystery card roulette" though so that's obviously going to affect the action.

I don't have any good first hand stories but had high limit dealers on my shift each make 10k+ nights several times while this one player was in town playing for a while. Luck is probably as big a factor in your earnings as your personality and dealing speed etc when it's a non-pool joint but as a dealer it's what I prefer and I don't mind knowing others are making a killing more than me because I'm more than satisfied with my own earnings and have a shot to bink a huge night as well.

I could and would have but he called the runner himself. Some players think my chips are unlucky after they bust. Of course.

Well then why would he want to borrow them from you?

I'm not saying this is why this particular player hailed a runner instead of getting chips from me.

You seem to be irritated with me. Maybe I seem stupid to you or something? It's a new arena for me and I'm just trying to figure out/solve things with the help of this thread. And it's been great, mostly.

I'm not irritated by you.

I think I actually got through to someone!

I was initially dismissed when I tried to explain to someone why he should not loudly comment on the possible flush hitting the river. "It didn't affect anything," he asserted.

"You mean it didn't affect YOU," I pointed out.

He blinked hard at that.

...and didn't comment on the play of any more hands.

Doubt that would ever happen in CO with $100 max bets 😂😂😂

I dealt my first jackpot hand tonight!

JJ vs A7 on AA64A
It was my first hand on the table and while the table started celebrating all I could think of was: Did I do everything right?!

I did fine. Though it's a challenge to suit a deck when your hands are shaking. Big sigh of relief and happiness for the semi-reg very pleasant players when the payout was okayed.

I have some extra $ in my pocket and a new answer to the 'when's the last time you dealt a jackpot?' interrogation. :]

Our policy is no stubble & no handlebar mustaches, or fancy shapes shaved on (goes for head as well, a fade is okay but anything more, nope). So for most people that aren't hairy monsters facial hair is out as you only have your days off to go from clean shaven to fully grown.

3 easily reachable pokestops walking around outside on break.

Save the lip, Olds. It's fun.

huh
