WHY US?

What's up my friends? Hope the poker world is going well. Quick question to you all and I will get out of your hair. Why is it that every time a player gets sucked out on, get two good starting cards and a bad flop, try to trap another player and lets them catch up, try to bluff and gets caught or any other bad scenario, they always, and I mean always blame the dealer? Would someone, anyone please explain this to me. We as dealers take the most abuse from players that I have ever seen. Our job is to get as many hands out as possible, collect the bets, burn and turn, call the winning hand, and push the pot. We really have no control as to what cards come off the deck. If we did, don't you think that we would invite all our friends to come and play? Or deal jackpots everyday? WOW, I mean come on guys take it easy on the insults and threats. We do have feelings too. If you are superstitious about a dealer, get up when they deal, believe me when I tell you that we won't be offended. Some players just come in with a bad attitude towards the dealers, and that's usually the ones that don't tip. We love our jobs, but we would love them even more without the abuse. Don't ever take it personal when you lose a hand, because it is not. We are there for you, to provide customer service and most of all to feed our families from your tips. Well, with that being said, take care and I'll see you on the other side of the felt....

PEACE!!!!!!!!!!

POKER JUNKIES

Hey my friendly poker people. Where have you been? Harrahs poker room for the most part has been empty in the mornings. The 15-30 Omaha game that is suppose to be the best Omaha game in the country is all but gone on Tuesdays and Fridays. I always tell everyone that the best time to make money in any poker room is in the morning when the overnight drunks and the all night games are going on. That means that people are tired and make mistakes that you can capitalize on and make a great deal of money. So whats the problem? Get in there between 5am and 11am and get some, It's there for the taking, trust me I know, I see this on a daily basis.
Now I have an interesting question for all of you 3-6 limit players, how about steppin it up a notch and asking our friendly staff at Harrahs Casino New Orleans to start a 4-8 or a 3-6-12 limit holdem game? Think of the bigger pots, the bigger action, and the better play from people that normally chase cards that would not. (but think of the bigger pots. WOW) Right now the word is that they don't want to run off the so called 3-6 older crowd. But as I see it, they can adjust just like people did with no limit, am I right? And there are even some no limit players that has stated that they will be willing to play these games until they can get a seat in the no limit game, which means the casino can keep these players in action at all times and possibly keep the room full. Well, let me know what you think. And also my people, PLEASE AND I REALLY MEAN THIS, PLEASE TIP THE DEALERS MORE, I CAN'T STRESS ENOUGH ABOUT WHAT WE ARE GOING THROUGH WITH THIS SO CALLED RECESSION. Instead of a $1 tip, give $2, instead of a $5 tip, give $6. You really don't know how much we appreciate it. And to our Wednesday tournament final table people, please stop walking out on us after you cash out. Anything that you can leave for us is highly appreciated. And to those that tip very well (and you know who you are) THANK YOU FROM THE BOTTOM OF OUR HEARTS. On that note, take care and I'll see you on the other side of the felt........

PEACE!!!!!!!!!!

WHATS UP MY PEOPLE?

Man it's good to finally blog again. It's been a while. Just wanted everyone to know that I will be at the Beau Rivage next month and I will be very focused. If I don't take time out to acknowledge you, don't take it personal, I just want to get into a zone where as all I want to concentrate on is poker and nothing and I mean nothing else. So please don't be offended. I wish everyone the best at the Beau, and I hope to see you at the final table in atleast 3 events. Now for the dealer news of the day. Ladies and Guys, it's come to my attention that someone has spread rumor that you should cut down on your TIPPING, and it is showing. Please ignore this rumor, we as dealers need every tip that we can get. So have an open mind and tip what you think is right and fair for us. If you do have questions about tipping, please refer to my earlier blog on tipping or just leave a comment for me or email me, hell stop me at harrahs and ask me, i'll be more than happy to answer your questions. Well hopefully it won't take as long to blog again, so take care and i'll see you on the other side of the felt.

PEACE...........
