$75 a game for multi-way/multi-ticket player at the 21 tables on an 8hr shift, when I ran Keno. I didn't accept it. That's the problem with having morals, and a knowledge of environment. Crap, what a duffus.
When I was a dealer in Nevada I got a $600 tip on a craps game. The player was winning like crazy playing nothing but the field. When "12" rolled and he won $600 for $200 bet, he yelled out "Woo hoo, what would you do with $600". I murmured that I'd get my car fixed. I turns out he was a mechanic from Bishop, CA and he handed me the $600. He must have throw one old Chinese player $500 during the day for rolling him winners. He ended up so drunk he pissed his pants and lost ever penny he had. When he asked the Chinese guy for a $100, the Chinese guy said, "I don't know you." Then we asked him to leave.
Patrick H, Great story. One of the only times I played 21, was at the casino I worked for. Started putting my hard earned tips on the table, and came up $200. Just in time to buy new tires for my car! That was great, but I never made a habit of it.
This will make it to snopes. The Donald never gave away anything, ever. Not without ROI. One day, probably after he's dead, an accurate biography will rip him to shreads as the thief and scoundrel he is.

ReplyDeleteThe casino business is a hoot.

Yeah, more believeable if you reverse the check and tip numbers.
ReplyDeleteA crazy aunt once tipped a waitress by instructing her not to plant her corn too early.
ReplyDeleteAnother occasion (with a poor waitress) she gave her a tip - to be nice to customers.
