Default Re: How much to toke at the end of a MTT?

A lot of successful players don't toke at all, I believe 5% is way to high, I usually do in the 1-2% range if there is a very good dealer, I will pass him/her some $$ privately as they usually chop the tokes among all the dealers.

But I'm sure 2% or so would be fine in bigger events.

I dont tip. Just take a screen capture, sign off and go to the bars. Is there a tip option in one of the menus?

I usually send the support person (if we chop) $20 and Lee $20 using the transfer system.

This is all a dealer deserves:



If he or she doesn't like it tell them to take notes on your play and score their own mtt win.

3% is acceptable. Make sure to find out whether the tip is already taken out of the prize pool.

Honest question: When it says that 3% (or however much) is withheld for the dealers and staff, does this mean you are not expected to tip on top of this? This always confused me.

that is correct. 6% is reserved this year for WSOP. (or is it 7%?). additionally tipping is not expected after that.
