Navigating the incredibly complex, unwritten rules of social etiquette on a bustling casino floor can be highly stressful for a first-time visitor.

Failing to tip a hard-working dealer after a massive winning streak is considered an incredibly severe, highly offensive breach of casino etiquette.
How to Toke the Blackjack Dealer
There is absolutely no strict mathematical percentage required (like 20% at a restaurant), but a general rule is tipping $5 for every hour of standard play.

In blackjack, you simply place a chip just outside your betting circle, slightly closer to the dealer; if your hand wins, the dealer's tip also doubles.
Tipping is never legally required, but it guarantees significantly better, friendlier servicePlacing a bet for the dealer is much more exciting and appreciated than a flat cash handoutDealers pool their tips in many casinos, so your tip supports the entire shift of workers The Cocktail Waitresses and Bartenders
One of the greatest perks of playing in a physical Las Vegas casino is the steady, endless flow of complimentary alcoholic beverages.

If you fail to tip the waitress on her very first delivery, she will likely completely ignore your section of the casino for the rest of the evening.
What to Do When You Hit the Jackpot
It is customary and highly expected to tip the slot attendant who processes this massive, life-changing payout for you.

For example, if you win a $5,000 jackpot, peeling off a crisp $50 bill and handing it to the attendant is considered perfect, generous etiquette.
