Natural selection has proven that individuals perform better when work is associated with reward. The poker dealers at TR currently pool their tips with all pit games such as Blackjack and craps. Tips account for over 50% of a dealer's income. We are circulating this petition to request that management allow poker dealers to retain the gratuities as they are received, rather than pooling with other dealers. Other nearby casinos have seen dramatic, positive results from this strategy.

These include:

Faster pace of play

Increased employee morale

Increased rake for house

Increased compensation for dealers

Less errors made by dealers

Increase player satiafaction
