I was lucky/good enough to split 1st and 2nd at a small tourny at Bally's in Atlantic City recently. 20 people entered, and it ran for about 3 1/2 hours. After it ended, and we'd been paid, neither of us were sure what a proper tip was.
Is there a set percentage of the winnings? A generally accepted set amount? Does the tip amount depend on number of entrants and/or length of time the tourny lasts? The entry fees? What about for single tables sit n goes? What is the proper tip rate there? It was an $80 + $20 buy in, and we each got $680 - pre-tipping. I don't want to cheat the dealers, but I don't want to overpay either. Please advise. Thank you. Lee |

From what I've seen on 2+2, 5% is standard.

Can someone explain who it's standard to tip after a win? What about players other than the first place finisher.

I usually just give $10-$20, depending on the size of the win.

2-3% for a major tournament and 3-5% for a smaller ones is fairly standard.
Some casinos take a % of the buyin out for tips and in those cases you may tip extra but shouldn't feel required to. |

Also, the amount you tip should be based upon your profit and not how much you cashed for. For example, If you usually tip 3% and cash for $200 in a $100 buyin tournament you should tip $3 as opposed to $6. |
