Could someone please explain why dealer make so much in tips? Are Americans that eager to throw their money at uneducated people that do little more then throw cards at them? Casinos go through great lengths to make shore that dealers have no say in the outcome of theses games of chance. I hear dealers bitch and complain everyday that some uy hits big and stiffs them. If they lose arethey going to reach in that toke box and give anything back to them. Not a chance. Floor supervisors provide every bit as much customer service as a dealer if not more (i notice that you do not quote the part of the law that defines what a tipped employee is). But that is as far as it should go, dealers and floor people work together and in the case of Wynn it is insane that someone can make anywhere in the ballpark of $100,000 a year heck even $80,000 and be supervised by someone making half that. Yes the casinos should pony up some money but so should the dealers.

I think i was a bad call going to the media. I know if i was a high profile player, the kind of player Wynn goes after, I would have second thoughts befor I play there. Just the chance that he is going to drag a private transaction between the casino and myself through the public eye. Bad business decision. He could have done this with a lot less fan fare.
