I am a Blackjack and Roulette dealer in Las Vegas at a major Las Vegas Strip property. I have knowledge of all the table games. I have seen and done it all in over 8 years as a table games dealer here in Sin City. I love my job and industry. I wouldn't trade it for the world! Ask me anything and everything. My life is like a real-life Hangover experience. Well, okay it's not but it sounded good didn't it?
Not at all. In fact, believe it or not the biggest influence in Vegas politically and monetarily is, Mormons. It has been thay way for a LONG time. Trust me when I tell you this. Harry Reid is a Mormon and he has alot to do with the way the casinos are running here. The Mormon religion is the biggest in the valley and they have tons of cash. Don't be fooled by the mob, however I think Billy Bumpy Knuckles is still out there on the prowl.
You must attend a dealer school, or a college program which is focused on learning the table games. I went to a small dealer school in Vegas but I got lucky with a big break. You'll start off as "extra board" which is part time. You'll get 3-5 days a week and hopefully will be moved to full-time dealer within a couple years.
I would say Monday-Thursday from about 6am-noon. Try downtown for best results. A lot of casinos down there have $5 blackjack all day.
I think either one is good. In Vegas, it's who you know not what you know. You'll need a contact to get an audition anywhere here. Just go where you can learn a game quickly and get an audition.

We clear our hands when we get tapped off the game, to show surveillance that our hands are clear of chips.
You must let the supervisor know. Players in Vegas get one shot then we shut them down.
I don't think Spanish 21 exists in Vegas anymore
