the winner tipped the staff 100 bucks you figure the percentage

Sorry, that doesn't sound plausible at all. You expect me to believe that his prize-pool percentage tip to the entire staff was $100 out of a $7,500,000 prize? If he was going to tip so little, why not just tip nothing? It seems much more likely that he gave the dealer a $100 bill and then his percentage tip was something else (perhaps someone can confirm whether or not Binion's staff is allowed to know how much an individual entrant tipped from their pool).

Nobody would tip $100 out of a $7.5 million prize instead of $0 unless they were actively trying to insult.
