At a posh Las Vegas casino, a blackjack dealer and a player with a 13 count in his hand are arguing about whether or not it is appropriate to tip the dealer.

The player says, “When I get bad cards, it’s not the dealer’s fault. Accordingly, when I get good cards, the dealer obviously has nothing to do with that either, so why should I tip him?”

The dealer replies, “When you eat at a restaurant do you tip the waiter?”

-“Yes,” the gambler concedes.

-“Well then, he serves you food; whether it’s good or bad isn’t up to him. By the same token, I’m
serving you cards, so you should tip me.”

-“OK,” says the gambler, “but the waiter gives me what I ask for. I’ll take an 8.”
