    Camouflage Gear

    Hey Guys
    I'm looking into camouflaging my appearance with a legit wig and beard (I can't yet grow one unfortunately). I was able to find a good wig but I'm unable to find a good authentic looking beard.
    U guys know of any good online places that sell beards or mustaches?
    Also whats been some of your guy's experiences with appearance changes, going back to barred casinos?

    Good real hair wigs work well if you're known as bald. Shaving your head also works well if known for having hair. Synthetic hair shows up on surveillance cameras. Don't use it.

    You're about to seriously hinder your career by going the "wig" route.

    So do just about all casinos surveillance cameras have the ability to spot out synthetic wigs?
    This casino is pretty small and crappy, it just has a really good DD game

    You can rate a casinos surveillance by when the equipment was installed. The bubble size over the cameras in the ceiling is also an indication. If memory serves the smaller dome bubbles over the cameras mean more modern equipment. If I am wrong someone please correct me.

    The last, the absolute last ditch effort any counter should use, is costumes, and especially disguises like wigs and mustaches.

    You're wearing the disguise to circumvent your "real look" because you've already been backed off at the location you're trying to go to, Right? That tends to be the main reason people go for wigs or costumes. Not only will you get caught eventually, but you'll be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law over your trespass, simply because you're trying to play casino security and casino surveillance for fools.

    The second you try to pull the wool over the casinos eyes with a trick like that, the more seriously they tend to react to the situation.

    You get caught in disguise not only will you be banned from every single casinos in their property list, you'll get flyered all over town, and be put in RedHand.

    Yes I was back offed several months ago and I went back about a month after and was spotted within 2 hours of play.
    This is an Indian reservation casino in southern California. They don't have my name or anything just a picture of me. I only played at this place like 4 times until I got caught ( I was spreading heavy--- 10 units on DD)
    And technically I was never banned from the property, they gave me the old run down of just not being able to play BJ but I'm more than welcomed in their casino blah blah blah.
    So with that being said can I still be prosecuted if caught?
    I'm playing on playing with about half the spread cuz my EV is so high at this place compared to all other games in the area.

    You are dealing with indian law at an indian casino. They can do pretty much whatever they want. When you go to court it will be an indian court.

    My caution would be that the PA state troopers gave 150 of the Hell's Angels when they stopped them at the boarder of WV after the survivor of a fatal bar brawl in WV rode his bike to Pittsburgh to get reinforcements. They said I can't stop you all from going to get your revenge but I can tell you that you will be riding up to a bar on a mountain named after the guys ancestors. You will be surrounded by his kin. They are all well armed and live off what they shoot. If the police show up they will be his kin. If any of you survive to see a day in court after the massacre you will stand before a judge with the same name and the jury will all be relatives of the guy you seek to kill.

    If you are as smart as the Hell's Angels you will turn around and go home because you will be in a hostile environment and the hostiles control the legal system.
