I used to be a silent prop, and I found it shocking how many props sat down with absolutely no experience, how many were losing players, etc. I guess the casino that I used to "work" at didn't have a screening. Do you ask basic questions, or is it play at your own risk?

I am not going to disclose how much the props got paid or what I got paid (fyi, silent props get paid less), but I can't imagine them living good on what they were getting paid. If you want to add more thoughts, feel free. Just something to move the discussion.

I always tell people that no more than 5% of players are winning players, do you agree with this?

A common argument against this is that a prop is among winning players. I always laugh at this.

What are some of the reasons you feel that losing prop continue their job?

How do you deal with losing props?

Do you ever pull them aside and say "hey, no offense...."

One prop I knew lost 2,000 BBs before he finally hung it up.
