Dealers Have to Show Their Hands to the Cameras Before They Leave the Table

If you've ever seen a casino dealer engage in some odd ritualistic behavior before going on break, it's because they're being closely watched at all times by cameras embedded in the ceiling. It's called "clearing your hands": dealers clap or "dust" their hands and show their palms for the cameras to show they aren't trying to steal chips. Casino owners put the rule in place because dealers pocketing chips is the one of the most common casino crimes.

Thanks DragonSlayeryne for that trivia! when I was new to casino I find it weird when they do some hand gestures like that! well I was new back then good thing I didn't speak out my mind!

Fascinating insight! The behind-the-scenes of casino security is quite intriguing. Thanks for sharing!

You're correct! Casino dealers are closely monitored by surveillance cameras to ensure the integrity of the games. "Clearing your hands" or other hand gestures is a common practice used to show the palms and prove that they are not attempting to steal chips or engage in any fraudulent activities.

Yes yes that's right

That's right!

Interesting! It makes sense though, given the high stakes and potential temptation for dishonesty in such a setting. Thanks for sharing

I didn't know that about casino dealers and the "clearing your hands" practice. Thanks for sharing

This is why I don't the high trust issues because of the security and also they don't need to cheat since casino are already hitting the market haha
