Getting back into the game in select environments, I've noticed a large increase in dealer "errors" which screw the player. Normally the ratio of against the player to for the player is about 4:1 in my estimation, recently I've seen it about 10:1. If they're honest mistakes there's no reason I can think of for it being more than 1:1.
There's a big progressive jackpot I've been chasing and the player right next to me hit a minor prize. I told him how much he had won (mid five figures) and he was pleasantly surprised. Dealer calls pit supervisor over (both Chinese) "Oh congratulations, you win one thousand dollars." I say "No, no he did not." She looks back at the board "Oh I see you win two thousand dollars!" I say "No. Try again." Eventually they told him what he had actually won. They paid him by check, and the check was short. I told him to hand it back to them and complain to gaming if they don't correct it, he'll get paid. They gave him the right amount and he left. I stayed and played for a little while longer, the dealer tried to take my bet on a push twice, I had some nice wins, and when I colored out they tried to short me by a few black.
What the hell is the matter with them? Something going on?
