Second annual G2E Dealer Championship

(PRESS RELEASE) -- The Global Gaming Expo, presented by the American Gaming Association and organized by RX, announced the property roster for the highly anticipated, second annual G2E Dealer Championship. The three-day tournament will feature 50 dealers from top casinos across North America, and offers a chance to vie for the coveted title of “Best Dealer in North America,” along with a share of cash prizes awarded to the top three finishers.

The championship celebrates full-time, part-time and dual-rate dealers nominated by their employers at legal, state or tribal regulated casino operators across North America. For the first time, the competition will expand beyond the United States welcoming participants from Canada and Mexico. Each nomination includes an accompanying judge from the same property.

Dealers will showcase the technical mastery, showmanship and dedication required to deliver an exceptional player experience. Contestants will deal blackjack and traditional roulette for 15 minutes per game and will be judged on technical skills, hospitality and game control. “I’m proud to be part of the G2E Dealer Championship because it celebrates the skill, professionalism and pride of the dealers who bring the casino floor to life,” said Debi Nutton, Dealer Championship Tournament Director.

The competition will take place Tuesday, 29 September, through Thursday, 1 October, on “The Strip,” located in Hall D of the Expo Hall at The Venetian Expo. Round 1 will take place Tuesday, followed by Round 2 on Wednesday and Round 3 on Thursday.
