Interesting. Why would a dealer care if someone is winning? Usually big winners tip the dealer handsomely.

- bagels 2y agoDealers care because the casino cares, and pays them to care.
- grigri907 2y agoHaving never been to a casino, I've always wondered, on what grounds will a casino ask you to leave? Just that it's private property and they no longer want to serve you? It makes it pretty transparent that the house always wins, and even when they don't they can ask you to leave, ensuring they always win. I love the implication when someone is asked to leave but, "the rest of you, you losers can stay."
- splonk 2y agoThe casino has no problem just telling you, "you're too good for us". Depending on the situation and the mood of everyone involved, you may be told you're welcome to play other games, or you might just get trespassed. Note that due to a New Jersey court ruling, casinos in Atlantic City actually can't bar people for counting cards. In general the game conditions there are worse to make up for that.
- TylerE 2y agoTypically they won’t actually ban you? Just flat net you (ie if playing must bet the same each hand)
- ianhawes 2y agoThey may also just ban you from playing blackjack and warn you that if you're caught at the blackjack table again you're trespassed.
- sitzkrieg 2y agoshrug, my first ever back off was a "cash out you are no longer welcome to blackjack here" at ameristar pit boss was eyeing me a while and i was waiting for them to approach and cap my bets first if anything
- bagels 2y agoYes, its private property. They'll ask you to stop playing blackjack, limit the bets they will accept, or tell you to leave.
- splonk 2y agoCard counters (and advantage players in general) are much less likely to tip well compared to the average gambler. The sort of people who think they're making money on a game also tend to recognize that tips cut into profits.
- smileysteve 2y agoThe dealers don't care, the pit boss cares. The dealers will be rotated and cards shuffled more often when a table is hot, and they're probably watching at that point. Dealer change outs aren't the worst reason to tip them and walk and away a few hands later.
