What is the standard size for a poker table in a casino. Please read details?
I want to practice dealing on a real casino poker table, what are the measurments of the tables? Also, what kind of cards do they use? Bridge sized?

I’m not 100% about the size of a poker table, but I can tell you the cards are bridge sized, and once you learn how to pitch correctly, the size of a table would make little to no difference. BUT, make sure you learn the RIGHT way from a seasoned dealer or you’ll never get a job.

I second what star said, be sure you are practicing the proper dealing techniques. Dealing in a casino has some very specific rules and nuances that you likely aren’t familiar with. If you truely want to become a dealer, you will need to go to a dealer school anyway for certification so you might as well just learn there rather than going through the trouble of building or buying a table for practice at home.

There is no standard size for tables in poker. Almost all tables used for poker in casino play are 8 1/2 or 9 feet long.
