What happens when poker dealers yawn?

Question

Are they allowed to yawn? Would that show boredom/tiredness and cause the dealer to be scorned by the players?

Also, what is a poker dealer's salary?

Answer 1

Poker dealers are just people, just like in any other job people yawn. Obviously if a dealer appeared disinterested and distracted and kept doing it, the players might request he be replaced.

Their salary varies depending on where they work. In a typical casino they might get minimum wage plus tips. As they progress in their field they may get to deal more prestigious games or tournaments. Just like in any other job the better you are, the more you get paid.

Answer 2

When they yawn, they yawn. It isn't usually a reflection of the game they're dealing. It's a natural function of the body. I suppose some players might take offense to it, but unless the dealer is actually falling asleep at the table the floor isn't going to say anything about it.

Poker dealers generally make minimum wage, or close to it, plus tips.

Answer 3

I don't think anything special would happen. He/she may just be coming on duty, or at the end of a long shift. I doubt the players would even notice or care (too busy stifling their own yawns). The pit boss might notice and consider whether or not the dealer needs a break.

I don't know how much they get paid.

Answer 4

poker dealers are normal they yawn like everyone else........we don't get enough oxygen to the brain at times causing us to yawn.

the salary usually is minimum wage plus tips unless experienced............

Answer 5

Well, ZCT answer you. They're people and it's like any other work, you need to do your best, so you can receive rewards, but nobody is perfect, even dealers can be tired and yawn.

Take care

Answer 6

They cover their mouth with their hand! Salaries will vary with experience.
