WHY ARE CASINO DEALER TIPS CALLED 'TOKES?

[KrystalLee]

Fun fact: If you want to fit in when you visit Las Vegas, it's important to understand the lingo. One term you need to know is "toking," which means tipping. Tipping dealers is a great way to thank them for their service and ensure they watch your bets. "Tokes" is shorthand for "tokens of appreciation," which is why the term is used. So, be sure to tip generously when you're in Vegas, and everywhere else for that matter! Sharing is caring! hahaha
Now you know! Thanks to my friend who told me this. Hahaha.

Really?! Didn't know about the 'toking' thing for tipping in Vegas – feels like a secret handshake! Thanks for the heads-up. I'll make sure to tip well on my next visit.
