Call me strange but I've never understood the whole "tipping" thing in the casino. It's not as if anyone pays you for losing. Even when I was manager of a keno lounge downtown I would refuse tips FTP
Players of all they did were tipping me on doing my job of writing them a ticket. If I went above and beyond for them and negotiated comps or whatever then I would accept because I was going outside of my base job description. The only time I EVER accepted a tip for writing a ticket was when I wrote my own ticket out had it sitting next to the writing machine (by accident) a customer saw it wanted to play those numbers and hit 8 out of 9. He said he would have never won without me so I accepted because it was partly true.
Anyway comming from someone who used to be a part of the service industry I don't believe people should be rewarded handsomely for just merely doing their job or paid more because you won 10k instea of 1k. I also don't believe a server should be tipped more just because an entree cost more. If I get great service at Denny's and tip 20 percent or crap service at say Bobby Flay's and tip 10 percet. Is that person REALLY wothy of more money just because the total bill is more? It just kills me the sense of entitlement to tips in this town even if service is poor
