Default Re: Who Shuffles?

We use a dedicated player/dealer in our games and have 2 decks in play.

HAving 2 decks in play speeds things up a lot. ONe of the non-dealers is shuffling the deck that is out of play, while a hand is in progress. After the hand, the dealer puts a riffle on the deck and cuts them. Besides speeding things up, having 2 decks inplay highly reduces the chances that any one person can influence the setup of the deck since there are always 2 differrent sets of hands on the deck before the deal.
