Got placed on hyper tilt last night, think the guy was well OOL but he literally did not see any problem.
Playing a £10/£20/£10 self deal till final standard casino tournament. Myself and the guy in question had played together on the Wednesday passed, and the Wednesday previous to that. As well as being in the casino multiple nights in between.
I regularly deal at the is casino and have done at all self deal casinos I have ever entered in multiple countries. I have done so for 12 years and barring the first year of mis flops and errors never really heard a bad word. I admit my shuffling is not orthodox but its quick and I get a lot of hands per hour which I think is the most important thing for tubro one day comp level. My bet counting, pitching etc are pretty much spot on. (also for those that know me, I had only had 1 pint at this point)
I get high carded at break when I am not there. I start dealing. Probably done less than a 25 minute level when the guy says on my SB. I can deal when it gets round to your button if you like? I reply, "its no problem, I dont mind dealing". He says "its just you are not shuffling the cards properly"
What do you do in this spot? slam the cards down and give him them. Or deal all night out of spite and try and shuffle worse. Personally I think his question awful and embarressed me on a table full of players who I play with regularly. If it was a real concern of his. Perhaps he could have had a quiet word at a break as clearly we will share a table again and again in the future!
I think he was concerned by a couple of KK and AA flops. FWIW I didnt deal myself one winning hand while dealing, so cheating wasnt the issue.

this is the key to this in self deal tournaments i hate not dealing as it tilits me getting 5 hands per hour but on the other hand it would also tilit me if thedeck was not sufficiently shuffled

I give the cards a full spread over the table, gather, do a split pack merge a few times (my own way, not the usual), then a couple of small cuts, and a big cut. It is pretty quick. Speed was not his issue. In the hand for hand section on Wed he dealt other table and I was faster than him
As said never had an issue before, infact many people like my dealing cause its fast and suggest it

What is your way? What did he say when you asked him what was wrong with your shuffling?

I would turn around to that guy and shake him by the hand. Then when the button passes I would order a mocha latte sit back and play some poker. Working as a dealer at the casino for no money isn't worth getting protective over imo.

I want to say 'this'.. But I get uber tilted when people deal badly.
I dont know what the problem with your dealing is, but id show him that you're dealing and shuffling the cards 'enough' then show him the cuts, and ask him what else he thinks is missing?
Really unsure what to do, probably have a quiet word with the TD and get him moved on his next BB???

If nobody else cares about your dealing then dont worry about it but I think he handled it fine. Its annoying when someone complains about the dealer in self-deal, but then isnt willing to go in and deal themselves. Move over, put your feet up and critique his dealing for any small thing you can find

When I'm playing in self-deal comps all I'm trying to do is ensure that I'm not dealing and that I am able to engineer some form of drinking game for the table.... Mantis has it about spot on though, other than the latte obviously

I wouldn't worry about it at all mate. Funnily enough you do tend to get the odd douchebag here and there in these establishments.

Yup! Agree with Mantis, if he's going to be rude then let him deal, other alternative is to tell him to go fuck himself but like the big M to the AN to the TIS says it's just not worth being in any aggravating situation over.

Why don't you all just take turns in dealing?
