Whats funny is, any seasoned player knows, any two live cards are good, except the obvious tossers. Whiners mark themselves as fish

The ability to move on after these episodes was not the usually way to me to act. For some reason, the training for dealing poker has allowed me this new freedom But I still have learn how to do the same in my personal life.

I agree with Chris, the ability to “move on”, and in that the relationship with any particular customer is transient in the sense that the dealers move from table to table – powerful stuff. Great post and good luck.

The most powerful part of this piece, and the part that *I* don’t do well is get over the emotions of it and move on. I get really mired up in my emotions.

This was a really great post. I loved it and it was helpful.

And wow… teasing us with a next post? I can’t wait to read it. : )

In tourneys, I need to make sure that all player’s bets are accounted for and correct change given back. As we play mostly No Limit, I don’t need to know the exact amount.
In cash games I need to keep track of the pot size to determine the rake. At the room I work at, it is one dollar for every ten, capped at $5 in pots totaling $50 or more. In the limit cash Game, there is additional $1 taken one the pot reaches $20 or higher. This is taken for the “Bad Beat” jackpot. At those tables, I have three drops.
A lot goes on behind the scene during every hand of poker that is dealt.
I am enjoying every moment of it.
