Massage at the poker table--Do you tip?

[Poker Orifice]

I would tip if I was to get a massage, my tip would probably turn into compensation as I would probably knock their block off for touching me, so safer to not have a massage in the first place 😛

What if they were HOT? 🔥🔥🔥

Yesterday, at a tournament at the MGM National Harbor, I had my first ever massage at the table. After all those years watching players get massages while playing at the WSOP, it was my turn. I have a frozen shoulder and the masseuse was really good.

I didn't find the position of being table-side, facing the back of the chair, so comfortable. There's that firm pillow you can use and I found that slipped around. I timed my massage for during a short break, but was still being massaged when break ended. Getting dealt cards while having a massage isn't optimal.

One question I have about this is: If you get massages during poker, do you tip? In this case, it seemed that all the cash from the massage went straight to the masseuse. I don't know if she had to pay something to the poker room to be able to work there. Anybody know?

Yes, I always tip & love to get massage! 😇

Hmm, doesn't know, maybe she have to pay some % to the poker room for working there...

I will tip the hotty for just being eye candy, but he still can't touch me!

The person who opened the comments again (4yrs. later) appears to be an actual poker masseuse & has provided some good info.(unlike the large % who got that much closer to the passwords). I knew they paid a portion to the casino but wasn't sure how much - - seems they pay 1/2 to the Casino.

Crazy they have to pay 1/2 to the casino. That's quite a commission. U were probably wondering about my second answer itt.:
