Two ways to become a better poker player are to watch a really good player and to play the game. There is a vast amount of information available online. Check out some forums such as Pocketfives, 2+2 or Liquid Poker. Books can be helpful for many, depending on your learning style. For No Limit tournament play Sklansky and Harrington are two of the better authors. Thinking about poker while you are not actually playing is a very important concept that beginners never do. Watching poker on TV is probably the least beneficial way to improve, as they edit a lot and the expert style of play is much different than the players you will see at common levels.

If you are an experienced or trained dealer, you put in an application and if the casino is hiring you will have to audition for the job.

If you want to learn how to deal, you will have to either go to dealing school or find a casino that trains dealers.

Please note that dealer schools can be expensive so be sure that this is a job you really want to do. Dealing cards can be a very demanding job. Casinos that are willing to train do not cost you anything but there is no guarantee that you will get a job, not everyone gets the hang of it. While dealing cards seems very simple to most people it really is not, there are a lot of rules and regulations you have to know.
