I was out last weekend with a friend, sitting at a table for some time just playing low stakes. At least 4 or 5 dealers went through while we were sitting there. The table was fairly full sometimes, and down to just us 2 at others. When it would fill up it seemed to be random people stopping by for one or two hands, not someone sitting down to play for a while.
Anways, inevitably these people ask for help on some hands. Most of the dealers are telling them the correct move, giving them surprisingly good advice. One dealer went on a long diatribe about hitting soft hands and the percentages it gives you, and the opportunites for doubling, etc.
Then eventually a dealer moves in and starts giving everyone bad advice, I mean really bad. Not just incorrect, but I would say she was intentionally misleading people. She told the entire table that when the dealer has an Ace, but checks and doesn't have a BJ, that means it's better for the player. She was trying to talk a guy into doubling on a 5/3 against an Ace (that wasn't a natural). She discouraged a guy from splitting 8's against her 4 or 5, something bad, by telling him that she'll probably bust so he should stand. I can't even name all of them, in her 20 minutes she easily gave out 20 pieces of bad advice, more than a few were malicious in how bad they were.
Would you have said anything?
