Ask a Blackjack Dealer anything

Ask a Blackjack Dealer anything

How many of your patrons are hammered af?

Worst hand?

How's your parking situation at work? Is it close enough to walk or do you need to take an employee shuttle?

are jews white?

What is 8 + 3 +4 + 6?

I would say 30% or so
Having a hard 16 against a face card
at ours, the parking is reasonable, 5 minute walk or so to our lounge. others I have worked at there was a shuttle
Yes?
I think like 21

Why does everyone yell at me when I split 10's?

21 indeed.
ok, his story checks out

Can you split two different face cards
>e.g., dealer has 6 showing

Why do all Asians walk around my neighborhood with their hands together behind their back?

why does everyone use an apostrophe when they pluralise a number?

Because your hand is the second best it could be. But I always tell my clients that it's your money, have fun
That was a close one
At my casino, no you can't. but at very large casinos (vegas, AC) lots of casinos let you because you are more likely to lose when you pslit them

why is the game called blackjack if blackjack is simply a 10 + ace?

How much do you get paid?

they are all naruto ninjas and are hiding there hands from doing some jutsus. be careful
In america, Grammar is half taught and math is like a back burner subject. so most people comboine them

A whore was trying to pick me up one time while I was hammered at the Blackjack table.

What is a fair price for a half and half from a nice looking prostitute in Vegas?

Because it's the best hand, so they advertise the best stuff
I make $10.84 an hour. I can work pretty much all the overtime I want. I also get more if I learn how to deal more games. This is before tips ofcourse

I don't live in vegas, but from what I have "heard" A decent price for a beat up looking hooker would be about $60, so maybe double?

What's the best way to win.

memorize perfect strategy
Dont drink
Stay focused
Don't tip (i know sounds bad, but it's your money)

Learning to count cards is really easy. But we are trained to catch that and alert the pit boss

Couldn't do it for that money. If it came down to it, I'd rather work a minimum wage $9 an hour job where I can space out and be a zombie as opposed to actually thinking.

Do you have to split your tips with all the other dealers, or if I win massive and tip you massive is it yours?

How do you catch a card counter?
I heard splitting 10's is a tell tale sign?

>memorize the perfect strategy
>but don't memorize the cards!!!

Casinos are for fucking morons.

To go an arcade, they have enough sensory overloading games that simulate a gambling environment. Blow $50 instead of a couple hundred.

Why is counting cards illegal?

not him, but I was tought to look for betting patterns

an obvious counter will bet small at the beginning of the shoe and drastically increase his bets nearing the end of the shoe given it is rich enough

My tips are mine
Someone who is ultra focused on cards as they come out, not drinking, betting usual table minimums and when the count gets high as shit, doing 5-10x the miniumum
I absolutely agree. Unless you are lucky, you will always lose out
for me it's fun. I get to meet lots of weird people and since I work for the indians, I pay a smaller tax rate

...

Average take home per week in tips alone?

It isn't illegal, it's completely legal. But the casino has the right to not give you any action to play. they dont want to lose money to you, because playing perfect strategy and perfect counting give you the edge

How long does it take to fully learn how to deal ? Do you deal any other games? Biggest tip? Apologies if any of these have already been asked

Cool, thanks! I can barely remember my own phone #, but I was always curious about that.

I would say $200-$300 dollars in tips. The most I took home in 1 week was $2k. i was working an overnight and dealing a high stakes game. (1K a hand) guy was playing 4 seats and made like 50K in 3 hours.

no worries, I talked about biggest tip in another post, but 1K. I can deal blackjack, baccarat, Mississippi stud, I know the roulette wheel and craps. I am in the process of learning keno

OP here, be back in about 20 minute or so. If the post dies, I will start a new one. Look out for it

Ho lee fuk..1k! Nice one..I guess there is a lot of competition to get on the high roller tables where the tips are higher? Or do you rotate

>I will start a new one. Look out for it
Oh! I can hardly wait.

How much do you sell an ounce of blackjack for?

OMG, please don't go.
You're the best OP EVER!
I will be waiting for you and keep your thread bumped for you.

How often do you pay out for side bets even if the player didn't win?

If I'm at your casino and you suspect im counting cards, what do you go about doing?
Do i keep my current winnings or are they revoked?
will I be banned from the casino for good or just given a warning etc?

Counting cards in itself isn't banned, doing with with a partner and/or using a device is banned.

bump

Aside from counting card, have u ever seen any other 'trickery'?

It is banned..they will refuse your bets soon as they see you doing it..or force you to keep the bet sizes the same for the whole shoe

Did you ever made a counting mistake?

has a woman ever offered you a blowjob if you let her win?

a dude has offered me a bj once if i gave him 20bucks

bump

What casino do u work at? And do you guys have, let it ride? XD also whats ur opinion on the fleas

Have you told your parents that you're gay yet?

Do people get beatup when they are caught counting or do u just escort them out?

you guys are still herE? wow. I'll start answering questions

We rotate high roller but there are people who only deal hig roller tables
I dont pay out sidebets very often, but when I do it's usually a pretty good occasion. Once playing 21+3 (kinda like poker with the 3 up cards) guy got 3 perfect pair, it's 250:1.
I have seen people trying to watch me and get a read of my emotions, but i always just be happy
everyone has made a mistake or two. they usually just rewind play or give the player the win.
I have been offered money and services
not yet, waiting for christmas
Just get thrown out and there picture circulated to sister casinos

Joining in on this one.

Them quads

...

quads pay 10:1 around here, congratulations

Where is Chris Bowman? Where Has He Gone Off To?

Tunyka Village Mister Serpensen.

>do you have any tricks you do to make the customers loose?
How old are you?

Part of my job is make the sidebets seem appealing because most of the time they lose their money. and i'm 30

Whats the craiziest shit you have seen while working?

Whats the weirdest service u were ever offered

How/Why did you start dealing. And for how long.

Any greentexts?

Do you take advantage of rookies, dumb asses, drunks?

You should get out of the business while you still can. I broke in dealing dice 20 years ago thinking I was just going to do it to pay for college. Here I am 20 years later still doing this bullshit.
