Tony P goes to Dealer School

Early this morning I was lucky enough to attend Seneca Gaming Dealer School at the Seneca Niagara Casino. Class was in session and I brought my 'A' game...turns out it wasn't good enough!

If you have been to a casino you have seen the dealers in action. It is a skill to throw the cards around like they do, and collect/pay out chips. I thought my Vegas background and experience would carry the day for me but it only got me so far.

Channel 2 did a feature on Dealer School, and Kevin O'Neill was dealing Black Jack to myself and some other Townsquare DJ's (WBLK's Yasmin Young; WYRK's Liz Mantel; and 'The Dean')...of course Kevin dealt me a losing hand, again!

It was a lot of fun learning some of the tricks of the trade, but if you are interested in becoming a dealer there is no better time then now! It is a fun job with great benefits, and you can attend dealer school at all 3 properties - (Seneca Niagara, Seneca Buffalo Creek, Seneca Allegany).

Here are some of the great benefits of becoming a professional dealer:
