This
letter is to let dealers know about an unfortunate incident that
occurred at the MGM Grand...
Recently certain players that make all Baccarat dealers cringe
when they come walking into the Baccarat room took a shot by
betting over their limits on certain bets which resulted in
these players getting paid more then what they should have.
When
the incident was discovered MGM GRAND executives told Mr. Joe
Wilcock (Executive Vice President of Table Games, MGM) to have the
dealers and the floor supervisors fired. Mr. Wilcock declined to
do this and instead told them that they can have his job
because he did not properly instruct his casino personnel on the
players betting limits.
Basically
Joe Wilcock covered the dealers, floor supervisors, and pit
managers butts by sacrificing his job to save theirs. As far as I
am concerned it was the pit managers job to make sure the
personnel on that game was educated as to their betting limits.
Every other shift at MGM knew their betting limits --- it was only
this particular shift that was unaware.
When was the last time that you ever heard of a casino manager
sacrificing his job for others?? This is the first for me --
Would your casino manager do this for you??
Good Luck Joe, that was the most respectable move I have seen come
out of this industry in nine years....
I can guarantee you that MGM will replace Joe with a puppet of the
board.....
PS: Hey dealers that voted no --- Have things
changed at your casino yet????
