I just had a question for everyone. Do you guys feel guilty for winning your home game? It seems that although I don't win all the time, the times that I do win people seem to think that I'm cheating. I deal each time. I use a cut card. I shuffle 4-6 times before dealing. and before I start the game I let everyone take part in making sure that the deck is all there... We played last night and with a $10 buy in I made 80 bucks. we were just having a cash game. and there were 8 of us. a couple of people rebought a couple of times but I was the Big stack for most of the night.
You might want to change things up to make the other players feel like they're on a level playing field. I think passing the deal each round would help a lot, or let someone else be the bank. If you get one person handling the money (bank), and then that same person dealing every hand, it alienates the other players, especially if you're winning a lot. Just my $.02. -m

But I would recommend getting new friends.
I would have a serious problem with anyone accusing me of cheating.
They certainly would not be invited back.

We always pass the deal and one person always handles the money. Everybody gets their turn to deal and that way there will be no sly comments.
The only problem with this is they don't know how to deal! I'm almost to the point where I want to just deal and not play myself so they can have a good time.
Not at all. If they think that you are cheating the hell with them. I've played at other peoples houses a couple of times and won, they have not invited me back since. I've asked a couple people that go and they said that I had to be cheating. they were just mad that they sucked and didnt want any competition. Plus, I don't know how anyone could cheat if they are not all time dealer. Whenever we played we rotated the deal.
Cheater!!!! No just some people that don't know how to play assume that luck is the only thing involved. Just tell them luck only happens to those that practice.

You should continue to play but it doesn't take much to learn how to deal and they'll never learn if you don't let them give it try. Who wants to deal all night and play anyway? That would drive me crazy (dealing every hand).
