It's always a good idea to tip your blackjack dealers when gambling at a casino, especially if you are winning.

By doing this, it will be more likely that you will get comps and quicker drink service. Read on to learn how to tip blackjack dealers.

Instructions

Difficulty: Easy
Step1
Look at your chips and decide what you can afford. You don't want to tip more than you can afford. If you are losing money, you probably shouldn't be tipping. However, if you are winning, you likely will have some $1.00 chips or 50 cent pieces. These are perfect for tipping, since it is highly unlikely that you will use them while gambling.
Step2
Tip after a win. If you want to tip after a big win or a dealer bust, place your tip on the table above the betting circle after a hand has concluded. You may also want to tell the dealer that this is for them. Sometimes, a tip can be confused with you asking for change. So, let it be known that it is a tip.
Step3
Play a hand with the dealer. To do this, place your bet in the betting circle as you normally would. Then, place your tip bet on the edge of the circle next to your bet. By doing this, the dealer plays the same cards that you play. If you win, the dealer wins and their tip goes up. If you lose, the dealer loses and they don't get a tip.
Step4
Tell the employees what you are doing. If you are tipping big, make sure to tell the dealers and pit bosses. This will get them on your good side.
Step5
Ask questions. By tipping well, you gain the dealers and pit bosses attention. If you want something, ask them. They are more likely to provide help, drinks and comps to you if you are tipping well.
