i think Will Fry was pretty astounded as to what they were asking for when he won the EPT, sounded ridiculous.

go on? I obv forgot how much it was exactly but on top of the fees etc paid, they kind of expected a big tip at the end as well. Sort of taking advantage of the euphoria of winning I guess. |

I've been generous in the past with tipping on most stuff, but I've recently decided I'm not tipping in tournaments ever.

If you are asked to tip, then tell them to GTFO imo.
Tipping is VOLUNTARY, not COMPULSORY !!

I wasn't aware most places did ask for you to do so. I know that Grosvenor take very serious issue with anyone that is felt to have put pressure on a customer to tip.

at the end of the gukpt's i always used to ask the final 2 to bung the tea girls a bit as generaly most players dont tip and leave to the winner but as for leaving a tip for dealers that should be at the players wim.
Jerome Bradpiece tried giving me £2.5k when he won in Walsall for the dealers infront of the gm at the cash desk when we still couldnt except tips then he gave the tea girls £1k.
another winner in Brighton who i wont mention names won and tipped £40 for 8 girls for 3 days work.

GUKPT Brighton winner, you didn't work last series, it's not Julain Thew, wears a hat - lucky you didn't mention his name.  |

Leaving what people mock him for as a player aside I've always found Dave Smith an absolute gent and there's few people I'd rather share a table with.
In fact when I was about 18 and dealing/playing in Gala Notts a bunch of players hadn't paid me and Dave insisted upon giving me the money from his own pocket when he really didn't have to at all.
Maybe he wasn't happy with the service he was getting or there was another issue there. Not sure it's entirely fair to bring it up when Dave won't see this or give his reasons.
