Re: Do you tip when you\'re down?
I usually tip if I have to showdown and win, or if I take down a decent sized pot on the turn or river.
Smaller pots go directly to my stack. At the casino I play at the tips are split between every dealer in the house. If the dealers kept their own tips, I would be far more generous to the good ones that try to speed up the game, and way less generous to the ones that never feel the need to do a better job. I also think that tipping a gas station attendant is more important than tipping a dealer/waitress/cab driver. Even more so in the winter when they're sittin' there freezing their asses off smelling like gas 24/7 so you don't have to bother getting out of your car to pump your gas. That's service.

I hate the argument that these people rely on tips. A tip is a show of appreciation for a job done well. [/ QUOTE ] No. Actually it's the size of the tip that is an indication of your satisfaction with their job. Dealers work their butts off so you can make your 2BB/hr. The least you can do is flip a buck for each pot you win.

Re: Do you tip when you\'re down?
I hate it when you play $3/$6 and you win a small pot from the big blind. You're stacking your chips and you toss your small blind out because you don't want to hold up the action. Inevitably the dealer grabs it, sticks it in his little tip bin, and says "Thank you sir!"
Now you have a choice. You can be the worlds biggest butthole and say "That wasn't your tip, that was the small blind," or you can do what I do and just toss another buck out there and think to yourself "Oh well!"

I'm not sure if we disagree about tips though. I agree that the size of your tip is in relation to your satisfaction. For good service a tip is appropriate. I only pointed out that if the service is bad then I'm not tipping.
