It's bad enough when idiots give out wrong advice, but when a dealer does it...SHUT UP AND DEAL! Many dealers won't offer up any advice even when asked by newbies, etc., and with good reason. But fellas, doesn't it suck when you are second-guessed by a dealer who apparently is as ignorant as many players?
I split 2's vs. a 3 (I was the last player)...got 14 on the first one, had 12 on the second, hit and caught a 7...the dealer had a 4 in the hole, got a 10 for 17, a couple of other players lost and she tells me "I would have broke...you were supposed to stay"! :flame: It wouldn't have been as bad had she just said something like "HAD you stayed", etc. but the way she said I was "supposed" to stay really burned me up.
Of course every other player had been making ignorant plays and she never said a word to them, so I couldn't resist, I say to her "I'll ask you the same question I ask players who give out unasked for advice...what's your secret?". She fell for it, asked me what secret was that, and I said "The secret to knowing what cards are coming out next?". She called me a smart ass and I told her just to deal the damn cards, etc. etc. I wish a pit boss had been listening in...of course, had one been, she wouldn't have given me a hard time.
She was one of the worst dealers I've run across lately...flinging the cards at us, flinging chips, dealing super fast - and once she hit T5, got an Ace...and starts to take chips from players who stayed with a stiff hand. At least she did bust.
You know, if she had been second guessing others, I would almost have expected her to say something, but she hadn't, and that really pissed me off.

I have ran into more than a few like that.
