Question

How much can a card dealer in Vegas make in tips each night?

Answer 1

go to be a card dealer than u know now much they have for tip?

Answer 2

I used to deal for 10 years, in Las vegas the dealers get a shift wage which varies, in the the range between $32 and $45 per shift.All tips are pooled and divided equally depending on hours worked. Strip dealers usually earn between $125-$175 per 8 hour shift. Downtown dealers are between $100- $150 per shift and would you believe dealers on the border make alittle more(state line).So basically the dealers make 50k+ annually. Some dealers are leaving Vegas to deal in some Indian reservation casinos cuz some get to keep their own tips, which on a good day can earn $1000 + in one night but usually average $300+.

Hope that answers your question.

Answer 3

Dealers in Vegas are paid minimum wage and share all tips with all other dealers on their shift. It does not matter if you tip a certain dealer or do not tip another they all get their cut. It also makes no difference whether or not there is a high roller at the table. The money is pooled and chopped between everyone.

Answer 4

It depends on you, if your customers are winning, then you win.

Also, you never know when a Big Tipper/High Roller will sit at your table, then you're an even bigger winner!

Answer 5

A poker dealer can deal 20-25 hands an hour.  Each hand the dealer can expect to average $1.  Add that to the minimum wage they make and health benefits, retirement plan and you are at $250-$300 per night.

Answer 6

A lot, haha.

I guess it all depends on which casino their working at, what kind of table (high roller or what have you), how good they look (sadly), & if he wins? Don't you think? I know they can make quite a lot though. I wonder how much they get paid an hour...

Answer 7

My parents are big gamblers.  The bigger the win, the larger the tip!  

All of it would depend on getting into a high-end casino, building a reputation, and giving up your nightlife. Of course, working in a casino becomes your nightlife so it all works out I guess.

A friend of mine is a cocktail waitress in NJ and she has been able to invest in a 350,000.00 beachfront condo in FL from her tips.  I would imagine that a card dealer would make much more than a waitress.

Answer 8

I think a dealer earns more per hour, then in tips per hour.

However, it depends on the table they're at and there personality.

Remember there are $5, $10, $20 and $100 tables,

Also, which hotel I think is not as important they're all basically the same.
