i agree about the outrageous tips that dealers typically get.

i don't tip bad dealers (slow, rude, incompetent), ever. i'll remember their face and never tip 'em. and there's a lot of e'm down here.

another thing i do is that i tip only when i win a second pot within a 30min slot (dealer's shift). i tip in 2 pot increments. so for instance, dealer sits down, i win a pot. then i win another pot before the dealer's shift ends, then i tip that dealer $2. then i repeat the cycle. if i don't win 2 pots with the same dealer, say i only win one pot, then i don't tip. i have to win 2 pots (imo, $2/pot seems to be the norm down here lol). so it averages out to $1/pot, but only sometimes, since i don't win 2 pots per 30 mins that often.

i find that winning a $70 pot and only tipping $1 screams arse-hole down here, so what i do is use people's lack of short term memory against them and try to project the image that i tip $2 every time i win a pot.

i know. stupid. but it's these little games in my head that keep me entertained while playing these ridiculously slow, low-limit games. that and guessing whether that young spinner by herself at the bar is a hooker or a citizen.
