the most tilting thing is when you have a really tough decision and the dealer is laughing and joking with other players, i'm all for dealers getting involved with table banter but they should also know when its time to stfu

You can always ask nicely for them to STFU when you have a decision.  The players and the dealer will understand, and they probably didn't realise you were thinking as they weren't paying any attention to the hand - hence the chatting.

Yeah, he should be.  But saying 'excuse me, can you be quiet for a minute as I've got a bit of a decision to make' is a pretty standard form of communication that would help resolve the situation without conflict and upset.

DTD dealers watching the f**king football on the big screens!!!!!

You're at f**king work!!!!! Ignore the football and do your job!!!

One of them was even making the "ooh aah" noises that football fanciers make when something happens.

It was driving me mad.

Oh, stacking the pot is another one too. The pot should be a mess in the middle of the table and definitely not stacked. This can be even worse in cash games when you have a dealer who has no ma skills and has to stack it so they can count it and work out the rake. Maths should be a test when applying for the job!
