I probably have more experience with MO casinos than anyone else that actively posts on this board, other than the long time pros maybe. But I live in the area, so I've been playing in MO (St Louis/KC) for the last 2.5 years and I can tell you from personal experience that MO CANNOT ban/bar/BO for card counting. I've probably played at least 1,000+ hrs in MO casinos since I started counting. I can tell you that they also don't flat bet you either. Here are the counter-measures they will hit you with.
• Half Shoe (on 6D)
• Quarter Shoe on DD or 2-rounds only
• Preferential Shuffle (doesn't occur offen, but it does happen every so often when half shoe doesn't deter you)
• Table Max Lowered - Once had a pit boss change table max from $1,000 to $50 on a $15 DD game, AFTER they were only dealing me 25% of the deck!
I've been counter-measured at every casino NUMEROUS times now in St Louis (and most in KC), so I've basically stopped playing there. I had one incident where a PC actually tried backing me off and ejecting me from the casino, but I explained that she couldn't do that, so she didn't argue with me. MO btw is extremely OSN active! I had a friend pull up my OSN profile recently and they have 9 photos of me in there (including 1 of my license plate) with multiple notes and entries. All of these entries and photos came from St Louis/KC, except for one entry that came from a nearby out-of-state casino in the St Louis market.
So there you have it.
