croupiers

Table game operators

Croupiers are casino employees who operate gaming tables—dealing cards, spinning roulette wheels, handling chips, and paying out winnings.

The term comes from French, where a croupier originally sat behind a gambler to provide backup stakes.

The croupiers at Monte Carlo wore formal attire.
