I don't think I've ever covered the concept of tipping (also known as a toke) the Dealer in my column before.  For some it's a relatively boring subject.  To others, it is topic that evokes much emotion from what I've seen on some on-line postings.   Since most of these electronic bulletin boards attract a lot of 'advantage' Players, that is Players who play games that are over 100% payback or very close to it, it is probably no wonder that many of these Players are not big on tipping Dealers very often.  If you give the Dealer a nice portion of a big win, this might represent your total net win on an evening.
