Americans have become so lazy with this "people owe me" mentality. Doing your job right should be the norm.

Fine and well, but from the other side of the equation, it's also the norm that you pay for services. Whether it be primarily by tips or normal wages is besides the point. The cost of keeping poker rooms staffed is higher than the base wages paid by the casino - which, without tips, wouldn't even be legal since it's below the minimum wage.

Expecting good service, but not wanting to pay for it - doesn't that sound like the "people owe me" mentality you're talking about?

What? If Casino's just took care of the "tipping" for the customers, this whole mess wouldn't exist. Dealers would make a guaranteed rate for their services and would keep the bitching and moaning away from their customers. Oh, wait, that's exactly what happened in this tournament we're talking about.
