The 2025 Global Gaming Expo (G2E) in Las Vegas, Nevada will introduce the first-ever US Dealer Championship, open to full-time, part-time and dual-rate dealers from regulated land-based or online casino operators through nomination by their respective employer.
The multi-day event will award cash prizes to the top-three competitors, as each contestant will deal blackjack and traditional roulette for 15 minutes while being evaluated on technical skills, hospitality and game control.
Looking to bring together many of the country’s top casino dealers, the competition will be presented by the American Gaming Association (AGA) and organized by RX.
“We’re thrilled to introduce the inaugural G2E Dealer Championship as one of the exciting new additions to this year’s event,” RX Event VP for G2E Korbi Carrison said.
“This competition celebrates the incredible skill, precision and showmanship of casino dealers across the country as well as highlights the vital role they play in the gaming experience. The dynamic and engaging experience will recognize top talent and is sure to bring even more energy to the show floor.”
Based on the number of participants nominated by casino operators, the event is set to feature a series of elimination rounds to determine the champion and runners-up. Every participating dealer is required to be accompanied by a table games executive from their respective property, who will also serve as a judge throughout the competition.

“Dealers are an integral part of the gaming experience, and the face of the industry for so many guests. I’m proud to help shine a spotlight on their craft at the industry’s biggest stage.”
