How long do I withhold tips? Dealer mistake costs me $1800. (long)

I don't care about EV, I'm talking about dealer accountability. In this poker room, tips are pooled, so motivation for the dealers to do well is lacking. Should they not be punished in some way for their ineptitude?

Not really. It was an honest mistake, and a 0 EV one. Are you perfect at your job? What you call "ineptitude" is not what I call it. If this dealer constantly makes mistakes then he should be fired. Otherwise, it's just another day.

I do agree that pooling tips is a very bad idea though.
