Tipping here starts at about $20 and goes up to between 3-10 percent of the jackpot, depending on the customer. More on this below.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you call an attendant over to hold a machine while you use the restroom or for whatever reason, tips should be based on the length of time you&#8217;re gone. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This could range from a couple dollars up to $5 or even more if you&#8217;re gone for a bit. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you\u2019re likely to be gone for more than 5-10 minutes, just ask them to turn off the machine instead. You can always use the service button when you return to get it turned back on. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Tipping On A Hand Pay Jackpot<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>As mentioned above, any win above $1,200 will be a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.casino.org\/blog\/what-is-a-hand-pay-at-a-casino\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">hand pay jackpot<\/a>. The term hand pay is apt because that&#8217;s precisely what happens &#8211; the attendant will give you your winnings by hand.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This is because a win of this amount needs to be reported to the IRS for tax purposes. Your slot attendant will make sure they have all of the required information on file, deduct the appropriate taxes, and then come over and pay you your jackpot in cash.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Of course, on larger jackpots, you will have the option to take a check or put the money on deposit at the casino cage. This way you can access as much as you need without worrying about carrying all of that cash on you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So, how much do you tip after winning a hand pay jackpot? Due to the time, personal interaction, and the expectation that you will want to be paid on time when your next jackpot hits, a minimum tip of $20 and up to 3% to 10% of the total is recommended.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Side note: Federal taxes are not generally withheld until the jackpot is over $5,000, so if you want them withheld on smaller amounts, be sure to ask.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong><strong>Tipping At Table Games<\/strong><\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1000\" height=\"667\" src=\"https:\/\/www.casino.org\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/shutterstock_710463856.jpg\" alt=\"casino dealer at poker table\" class=\"wp-image-29160\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.casino.org\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/shutterstock_710463856.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/www.casino.org\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/shutterstock_710463856-148x99.jpg 148w, https:\/\/www.casino.org\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/shutterstock_710463856-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.casino.org\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/shutterstock_710463856-480x320.jpg 480w, https:\/\/www.casino.org\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/shutterstock_710463856-875x583.jpg 875w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\"><em>Image: Shutterstock<\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Tipping in table games can be confusing. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There are many different schools of thoughts when it comes to tipping dealers, but it really comes down to whether you are having a good time. A pit boss isn&#8217;t allowed to accept tips.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A dealer is an entertainer first and dealer second. This isn\u2019t someone pulling your car around or bringing you a drink. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Tipping here isn\u2019t about a service being\nprovided (or at least not directly), this is about entertainment value. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Yes, if a dealer gives you a straight flush on Mississippi Stud or a 30-minute roll on the dice table, you absolutely should take care of them, but even that should be within the context of whether you had a good time. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A dealer should always make sure you leave smiling, even if you lost. If you&#8217;ve enjoyed playing at their table, then it&#8217;s time to tip the dealer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We will discuss different tipping situations in more detail, but at the end of the day, the service you are tipping for is customer service, and if they deliver that they deserve that little extra.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Tipping\nYour Blackjack Dealer<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Tipping in <a href=\"https:\/\/www.casino.org\/blackjack\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"blackjack (opens in a new tab)\">blackjack<\/a> can be done by handing chips directly to the dealer or by placing a bet in front of yours. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Most folks prefer to make a bet for the dealer because they feel like it keeps the dealer rooting for them and gives them a stake in seeing them win. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>On lower limit tables, maybe a few dollars\nafter every blackjack, or if you\u2019ve won several hands in a row. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>On higher limit $25 and up games, the $5\ndollar chips would be a better choice. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Most blackjack games have some sort of side bet now, and if you were to hit one of these, something like 3-10% would be in order. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It\u2019s not required, but if you split or double your bet and have a bet for the dealer, it\u2019s good form to make those bets for the dealer as well.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Tipping\nYour Roulette Dealer<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1000\" height=\"644\" src=\"https:\/\/www.casino.org\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/shutterstock_104192330-1.jpg\" alt=\"roulette table\" class=\"wp-image-29158\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.casino.org\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/shutterstock_104192330-1.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/www.casino.org\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/shutterstock_104192330-1-148x95.jpg 148w, https:\/\/www.casino.org\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/shutterstock_104192330-1-768x495.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.casino.org\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/shutterstock_104192330-1-480x309.jpg 480w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\"><em>Image: Shutterstock<\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>In <a href=\"https:\/\/www.casino.org\/roulette\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"roulette (opens in a new tab)\">roulette<\/a>, the bet for the dealer can be offset on top of the chips you are betting to let the dealer know it\u2019s for them, or you can simply hand it in. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Tell them which number you wish to bet, and\nthat this bet is for them. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Another common form of tipping in roulette is simply to hand in some of your chips, perhaps 5%, when you are done and coloring up. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Roulette is a game where some people work the\ndealer much more than others. If you&#8217;re simply making outside bets and placing\nthem yourself, perhaps you don\u2019t need to tip as frequently. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But if before every spin you are asking the dealer to place 10 or 12 bets for you, or are stacking up chips on corners, splits and straight ups, more frequent tipping may assure more cooperation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Tipping\nYour Craps Dealer<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Most dice players simply hand in chips when\nthey are done playing. This doesn\u2019t slow down the game and makes things a bit\nsmoother. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But some dice players like to keep the dealers in action as a form of good luck. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>On the come out roll, you may hear: \u201c$5 Yo for me and a dollar for the dealers.\u201d This means the player will win $75 dollars if the 11 rolls and the dealers will win $15. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Much more than any other game, you will hear dice players say \u201cI\u2019m in control\u201d in reference to a dealer bet that they have placed. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So, in our above example, if the player said:\n\u201cDollar for the dealer, I\u2019m in control,\u201d then the player would decide what to\ndo with a winning wager, perhaps parlaying it to a $16 Yo or telling the\ndealers to drop the $15 in winnings but leave the dollar up for the next roll. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Some <a aria-label=\"craps (opens in a new tab)\" href=\"https:\/\/www.casino.org\/craps\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">craps<\/a> players will give the dealers a six or eight or maybe all the numbers as a tip. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If that number wins, the dealers win, and if the player has said he\u2019s in control, then he will decide whether to press, parlay or drop the winnings when they hit. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you\u2019re new to the game, try and find a\nslower game with fewer people. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Tell the dealer you\u2019re learning and ask about\ntipping while you\u2019re there. They will be certain to help.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Tipping\nYour Baccarat Dealer<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Tipping in <a href=\"https:\/\/www.casino.org\/baccarat\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"baccarat (opens in a new tab)\">baccarat<\/a> is much the same, the majority of players tip when they are coloring up. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Some will bet for the dealer on individual\nhands by placing a chip in front of either their player or banker bet, or\nsometimes the tie bet. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Most baccarat tables now have some type of side bet, and when hitting a decent payout on one of these, most players will tip 3-5%.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Tipping\nIn Carnival Games<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Carnival games such as Mississippi Stud, Three\nCard Poker, Ultimate Texas Hold\u2019em and even Pai-Gow Poker are always\nproblematic, mainly because for the first time, we have the chance of hitting a\ntaxable jackpot. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Filling out tax forms for the 100+ dealers\nsplitting the jackpot isn\u2019t something the casinos are going to entertain. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So, on many carnival games, betting for the dealer on a single hand is prohibited. You can give the dealer their tip when you leave the table or hand in a tip after a winning hand.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You can get around this in some cases by\nplacing the bet offset for the dealer on top of your bet. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Should you hit a taxable jackpot, the chip is\nstill considered yours, and the taxes will be taken out in your name, at which\npoint you can just give the dealer their share. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This won\u2019t always work, due to many of the\nbets on these games having a strict bet of just one dollar, or just five\ndollars. In most states, a payout becomes taxable at 300 to 1 AND $600 or more.\n<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But this also varies from state to state and tribe to tribe so, as in craps, your best bet is to ask the dealer and they will walk you through the individual casino\u2019s rules for tipping on these tables.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Do Casino Dealers Keep Their Tips?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Most US casino dealers initially earn between $4.35 to $9.00 per hour, and casinos expect the customers to make up the rest.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But in almost all casinos, dealers pool their tips. They don\u2019t keep their own. There are many reasons, but the heart of it is to avoid the dealer feeling like they would be penalized financially for dealing difficult games, and make more when dealing very simple games. This wouldn\u2019t be in the casino\u2019s best interest.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Tipping\nYour Cocktail Servers<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1000\" height=\"667\" src=\"https:\/\/www.casino.org\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/shutterstock_1131971006.jpg\" alt=\"Someone tipping their waiter \" class=\"wp-image-29161\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.casino.org\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/shutterstock_1131971006.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/www.casino.org\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/shutterstock_1131971006-148x99.jpg 148w, https:\/\/www.casino.org\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/shutterstock_1131971006-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.casino.org\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/shutterstock_1131971006-480x320.jpg 480w, https:\/\/www.casino.org\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/shutterstock_1131971006-875x583.jpg 875w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\"><em>Image: Shutterstock<\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Casinos wouldn\u2019t be half the fun without beverage\nservers. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Your hard-working server will bring you drinks, give you a smile and encouragement, and just generally make your gaming experience better. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>One of the dirty little secrets of the casino\nbusiness is that these hard-working folks are paid $2.15 an hour. Many can work\nyears and not see their base pay go over $3. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In about half of USA casinos, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.casino.org\/blog\/how-to-get-free-drinks-in-vegas\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">drinks are free<\/a> for those actively gaming, in the other half there will be some nominal charge. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Either way, you should tip a minimum $1 and\npreferably $2 for each drink, whether it\u2019s alcoholic or not. And then feel free\nto go higher for great service and customer care. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I mean after all, you want these folks coming\nback by.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Tipping At The Cage<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The cage is where you cash out your chips at\nthe end of the evening. Throughout most casinos in the States, this will also\nbe the players\u2019 club area where you get your players\u2019 club card. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>90% or more of these casinos will have an offer for new players signing up, so make sure you swing by this area and get a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.casino.org\/blog\/6-vegas-reward-cards-compared\/\">players card<\/a> and see what is offered if you don\u2019t already have one. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>They also help set up credit lines or can get you cash off your credit card. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Most transactions in this area won\u2019t require a gratuity, but in some rare cases such as cashing out a big win, or a wire transfer, or something equally time consuming, perhaps a small tip should be considered.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Tipping Your Casino Host<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Not all casino hosts can accept cash tips, and in some rare cases, even gifts are frowned on. But in most casinos, you can bring your host a small gift or cash tip, though it\u2019s best to be discreet. Place it inside an envelope or card, or use a gift card if cash is not allowed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>While it is unlikely that a host will over-comp you just because of some small gratuity, showing them that you appreciate their time and attention is always a good idea.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The amount to tip a host will depend heavily on what they do for you. If they got you a room, that might be a $20 gift card, but if they flew you out, set you up for three nights of dinner reservations, and then found you tickets to see U2 at the Sphere, well, that&#8217;s a whole different level of tipping.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Tipping\nAt Restaurants <\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>When dining out either at the casino or nearby restaurants, tipping etiquette in America is 10-25% of the cost of the meal, including drinks. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Again, the majority of these folks aren\u2019t making even minimum wage, but some tip adjusted version of it. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As in all these situations, customer service is everything.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Tipping\nTaxis And Such<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>If you need to take a taxi, especially in Las\nVegas, look for a taxi stand. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It\u2019s illegal for Vegas taxis to accept hailed\nfairs, so no flagging down one on your own on the Strip. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>10% of the fare is a good baseline starting place. Uber or Lyft should be treated the same as taxi drivers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Tipping Etiquette In America And The Rest Of The World<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>As you can see, tipping in American casinos\ncan be a wallet draining exercise, and is quite a different experience than in\nmost of the world. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Tipping in UK casinos was illegal until quite\nrecently. And in most European casinos tipping is still quite rare, or at least\ndiscreet. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Even Macau doesn\u2019t have a tipping culture, and\nmany of the tips are appropriated by the managers. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Only in the Caribbean will you find an\nAmerican model of low paid staff and an expectation of a gratuity-filled\nevening. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But remember the staff are working hard to\nmake sure you have a memorable and fun-filled adventure so in most cases a\ncouple bucks, a smile and a bit of understanding will go a long, long way.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Tipping in American casinos has always been a bit complicated.
