New dealer brings unwanted attention

[techster]

I was playing last night at a local Indian casino (Oklahoma) at a table with a young lady who had only been dealing blackjack 2 weeks--she must have been 18 or 19. She made a LOT of mistakes. Miscounting cards, miscounting payouts, etc. She had to ask the pit for help on most blackjacks. I had a blackjack with a $20 bet and she asked the pit how much to pay! I felt sorry for her and tried to help and realized she was paying whatever I told her. I wasn't about to take advantage of her inexperience, but could have very easily.

Well, her difficulties drew attention from the pit, and I ended up leaving the table before I normally would have because I was worried all the attention on her would shift to me (I was counting and had been spreading 1-8). Is there anything else anyone would have done in such a situation?

I'd be sorely tempted to take advantage of the dealer.

More importantly, don't the games in OK charge an ante on each hand that makes them virtually unbeatable?

I pretty sure they have certain days and times when the house pays the ante for the players. But yes they normally do charge an ante

new dealers are soo slow and you end up getting no hands in with them!

Yes, the casinos in OK do charge an ante, but several of them are beginning to run promotions where no ante is charged on certain days. Its funny though--the state REQUIRES an ante be charged so before each round, after the bets have been placed, the dealer must "show" antes for each player and then deposit them in a special slot. The casino is paying the ante for the player. It does slow things down, but what are you going to do when Tunica is 6 hours (and $4 a gallon!) away.

$4 a gallon? Count yourself lucky...you could be here in the U.K paying £5.35 a gallon thats about $10.50 :cry::cry::cry::cry::cry: Then again, the furthest you could drive in the UK is quite a lot less than in the US! Sorry, kinda off topic! Fancied a rant about fuel prices!!!!
