Terrible dealer tries to get the action kicked out.
Situation: The riverboat poker room is on my way home from work. It's 4 tables in the pit, 2 are NL and 2 are 4/8. Most of the dealers talk too much and slow the game. Some appear to be more interested in MNF than dealing their game. About half the time the floor is a dual rate dealer who knows his stuff, but most of the actual suits are clueless about poker.
The last time I played, the game's action player finally snapped on one of the smartass slow dealers and just about got kicked out. One of the regulars smoothed it over, but it wasn't because the dealer/management understood they were wrong. The regular just asked the dealer to not kill the action and slipped him a couple of bucks.
How should I handle this? Do I have any recourse besides just going to out of town rooms?
