I traveled from Long Beach to attend Jack Black Dealer school here in Temecula. I made the commit, based on the positive reviews from previous students. Peter is the best teacher ever! He is awesome at what he does, teaches you the best techniques, shortcuts to payouts & so much more! I'd get frustrated at times, because I wanted to hurry up & finish. There are reasons to being patient & in the end it was all worth it. I'm now working @ a local Casino, doing what I love. I could never have gotten here without Peter. Go there in person, do the tour, get your questions answered & talk to other students. You'll be happy you did read more

Jack Black Casino Dealer School - Specialty Schools Near Me - Temecula, California

I first came to Peter many years ago in the hopes of becoming a poker dealer. The game of Poker was the only passion I had in life. Shortly after starting that course I was in a bad car accident and lost everything. Peter refunded me my tuition and told me to come back when I was ready. Was extremely compassionate and understanding of my situation. Fast forward many years later I am broke with my ex gf pregnant, living out of my car. I'm freaking out and I don't know how to turn it around. I come back to Peter and not only does he help me with a payment plan he takes his time with me even with all my emotional baggage. It wasn't easy but Peter was with me every step of the way. 6 months later I am now a successful dealer with a roof over my head, a brand new car and a life with my son which I never thought would be possible. Thank you so much Peter for everything you have done for me and how you have always been there even when nobody else would. I highly recommend this school to anyone looking for a successful career choice. read more

Definitely the best casino dealer school in SoCal, if not the West Coast. Whether you're looking to begin your career as a dealer or need to learn a new game for your current dealer job, Jack Black is the school to go. Similar to Mr. Miyagi from Karate Kid, Peter (instructor), teaches in a way that is wax on and wax off. What does this mean? It means be patient if you want to become an excellent dealer and not just a fake-it-till-you-make it dealer. His style of teaching is so that when you audition for the interview, you'll be amazed at how easy it was compared to class. The class environment is very relaxed and all the students help one another out. Peter will also assist and provide very insightful input to your needs. And that's the thing about this school; you will find a job after. Peter is very helpful and knowledgeable in all the casinos nearby and seemed like a personal counselor when it comes to getting you where you want to be. One of the biggest questions asked is how long does the course take? For some casinos that require less games and less procedures, I've seen students obtain a job in 2-3 months. For others, it could take anywhere from 4-12 months - ultimately it's up to you. Depending on how much time and effort you put into the school; you can learn and graduate swiftly. read more

I would highly recommend anyone who wants to be a dealer to join Jack Black Dealer School. Peter is a great instructor! Very detailed and patient.

No student left behind and once you enroll you can always come back months, even years later to continue your learning. read more

Friendly environment with tons of people coming from different backgrounds. The school can be busy at times but it's worth experiencing to get familiar with big crowds. The best part is how flexible the hours are. Finishing the course will be depending on how fast you pick on the lessons but my advice is stay patient and believe in your self.I still attend to the school after being hired at Pala. read more

100% recommended choosing Jack Black Casino Dealer School, Peter is an amazing and patient teacher! I started school late December with ZERO knowledge about table games and 7 months later I got hired at Pala Casino! Not only is Peter a great teacher so is the dynamic of this school. You are able to create your own schedule and come in as many hours or days as you can. (The more you come the sooner you will finish school) This school also has a great social aspect because you meet people from different backgrounds and are constantly socializing so it helps you prepare for when you start working at the Casino. read more

Peter runs this school so professionally and helps every student that goes through his school with such detail. He makes sure you are set for success when you get a job and helps with the entire auditioning process. I also LOVE how you move at your own pace and set your own schedule. As long as he is open, you can show up whenever you want for as long as you want to learn that day. It really helps for those who don't have set schedules throughout their week. Overall, I couldn't recommend this school enough to anyone who wants to be a dealer. Once you're his student, you're his for life and can always go back to refresh what you need to work on. He's such a great teacher and genuinely cares about the success of his students. read more

Joining this school was one of my best decisions I ever made. This school was recommended by a lot of my dealer friends. Peter is a great guy and an excellent teacher he is known by a lot of casino auditioners and he will help you get into a casino when you graduate. He has taught me a lot and I have made a lot of new friends. Great environment and lots of fun. He closes late for all the evening people who works during the day. Most of the time we practice pass his closing time because he is still testing people, and he doesn't mind if we stay and practice. Thanks peter for everything you are a good friend and instructor. Check out his Instagram page and you will see all of us practicing. http://instagram.com/jack_black_casino_dealer_schoo read more

First of all, let me just say how grateful I am to have found this school right in my own backyard. I live a mere fifteen minutes away! I would have been willing to drive a lot farther to attend such a highly sought-after school with an exceptional reputation. Peter, the instructor, helped me re-launch a casino dealer career I had left roughly sixteen years ago. From basic dealer mechanics to all of the finer rules and variants of today's Casino table games, Peter coached and encouraged me until I was ready to audition. Well, with Peter's guidance, I passed that audition! Looking back on everything that helped me succeed I would have to say that the flexibility of the class as well as Peter's methodical and inspiring teaching approach really stand out as key elements. In short, he properly prepared me for a casino career with his knowledge, experience and wisdom. Peter knows the industry and especially the local casinos because he has so many former students working as dealers at all of the well-known establishments. In fact, I was able to learn from working dealers, including the one that I auditioned with, who regularly re-visit the school to either sharpen their skills or learn new ones. If you're seriously considering a casino dealer career, I highly recommend you visit the school and have a look for yourself. You'll feel very LUCKY you did! read more

Through this dealing school I was recently hired at Pala casino. Peter is an excellent teacher and to say he's thorough is putting it mildly. He can spot a mistake from across the room out of the corner of his eye and will not only help you get an interview and pass the audition but make you look like you're more experienced than a simple break in.

Jack Black Casino Dealer School - Specialty Schools Near Me - Temecula, California

I have known Peter for two decades. Whenever I am in a position to hire dealers; I always call him first. Enough said.

Peter Harrison runs a terrific school that gets you ready to pass an audition and look like an experienced dealer on Day 1 of your new job. He pays attention to every little detail and won't pass you to the next level until you pass his test. I passed my audition at Pechanga and Peter's teaching made me fully prepared. It takes time and commitment, but it is definitely worth it. Peter teaches you all of the games you need for an audition and, once you pass, he will help you with the specific in-house procedures you need for that casino, often bringing in dealers from that casino to help. The atmosphere at the school is great, with other students pushing you to be better. There are no hidden fees and you can go at your own pace, under no deadline to finish. You can come back at any time to either resume your schooling or to sharpen your skills. read more
