Default Re: Joining a new table?

New tables are da bomb. "I came all this way to gamble, and here we go, right out the gate!" I'm tenfold (at least) more comfortable in a cardroom than the average player, so I settle in immediately while they all let me take charge. Or try to play back at me. Either way, good times.

As a dealer, I love starting new tables in the morning. Everyone's fresh and friendly. I'm near the end of my shift, so I'm punchy, and I try to make it fast and fun for everybody. Even the higher limits at that point tend to like some banter when just getting started at 8am, and they appreciate my fast deck check and setup. I take the attitude of, hey, I'm warmed up and will take care of you. Stretch out, shake away the groggy, just trust me and everything will be fine.
