 Casinos
are a major industry in many parts of the U.S. and around the world.
Millions of people enjoy the thrill of playing slot machines and table
games. Slot machines require little interaction with casino staff, but
table games demand the attention of skilled professionals. Becoming a
casino dealer means demonstrating a thorough knowledge of specific games
and procedures.
Instructions
1. Select two or three popular casino games to learn. Casinos look for
dealers proficient in games such as poker, pai gow, blackjack, and
craps. Dealers with an understanding of more than one game stand a
better chance of gaining employment.
2. Enroll at a licensed casino dealer school. There are dozens of these
schools around the country. Students take courses in simulated casino
environments. Each course teaches the skills of a specific game.
3. Learn how to deal cards, throw dice, and spin the wheels required by
each particular game. Casino schools also provide instruction on how to
deal with problem players, and how to drum up further business for the
house.
4. Plan your study time around your own work or school schedule. Casino
schools offer a variety of day and evening classes. Dealers must be at
least 21 years old in most states, 18 at some Native American casinos.
Students will often be attending college or working other jobs while
studying toward their new career.
5. Prepare to spend more time studying the complex games. Hours and
prices vary from school to school, and from course to course. A typical
blackjack class takes about two weeks, and costs around $500. Craps
might take 12 weeks and cost $2,000 or more. |
