Do AC dealers care if you play props?

However, I didn't see where the OP said that these friends are necessarily good players, anyway. Money won from friends spends the same, eh?

I never understood going to a B&M with a bunch of people and paying rake and tips to play with each other.

It's called 'fun.' Google it sometime.

I don't think the High Stakes Poker has much to do with more people playing props because they hardly mention it on the show. I think it will have an effect of people wanting to "run it twice".

I was told to quit playing props in Indiana, but all we did was still play them and pay each other after the session was over.

I've done it at the Borgata on a couple of occasions, donking it up drunk playing lower limits, and never had a problem. Chips would be flying through the air to each other on every hand. Some dealers would even point out if one of us missed something. We made sure to not let it slow the game up so no one cared.

I was once playing red/black flops with a dude @ Borgata and were told to stop by one dealer whereas two others had let it go.

So I guess it depends

Matt, there will definitely be table games galore once the hour gets late. But I want some company at the poker table since I plan on playing at least a couple of hours. Besides, they are not all BJ champs like you.

Thx guys, drunken props are definitely a go from the looks of it.

If the dealer doesn't say anything, it's because they don't know to. Props aren't allowed and if the floor catches wind, they'll let you know.

As a dealer I hate props because most of the time it slows the game down (even if you don't think it does... it does), and one less hand a down can add up to $12 (or more) less in tokes a night.

Depending on the game, I might look the other way while I'm dealing, but alert the floor after my down. It's always better to let the floor take the heat for a ruling.

ODB is right. Depite your best intentions it will slow the game down a little. So what I have done for the dealer is the old "can you knock my chip down with the card" trick for a buck or two. I'll balance a chip on it's edge and tell the dealer if they can knock it down when throwing me my cards it's a buck for them. Then the next time I'll turn it sideways to make it a little harder. They have all seemed to enjoy it.

I've been playing props occasionally for the last year or so and i haven't had any problems. The trick it doing it with people that are sitting near you and settle bets between hands while the dealer is shuffling. You don't often find players willing to do it though. Its fun when you do though. Trop and Harrahs I have done it at most, they definately don't care. I've done it during drunken low limit fun fests at the Borgata, but we were all tipping the dealer really well, so that might be the reason they were looking the other way.
