Did I receive heat?

Hi Folks,

A couple of weeks ago I think I may have received heat, but it never occurred to me until I was driving home from the casino. I'm a newbie counter, played an average DD game, and I was spreading $10-$40. I made a nice win one morning while maintaining the count and chatting up this very experienced dealer, who also informed me that he used to be a pit boss. The very next morning I joined a table with two players and this same dealer actually came down and sat down at the table next to me. I chatted with him for a few minutes and he got up and left. He seemed like a really nice guy and I had enjoyed chatting with him the day earlier when he was my dealer so I thought nothing of it at the time. About another 10 minutes and passed and I was basically treading water with some very slow play with a couple of other customers with a real slow dealer, so I departed soon thereafter. But, on the drive home, it occurred to me that I was maybe receiving heat but was too inexperienced, dumb, or naive to realize it. What do you think?

Without knowing which casino,I'm inclined to say no.Some dealers and casinos actually try to make players feel at home.If you had a pleasant experiance with the dealer,and tipped him,its not unusual for him to say hi. Smaller the casino,the freindlier I find some dealers.

Yeah, I did tip this dealer on that first day and I genuinely enjoyed listening to some of the crazy scenes he told me that he witnessed over the years. I suppose the fact that he had told me he used to be a pit boss plus the fact that I was spreading without cover had me paranoid. But, this was a low stakes game.
