Hope the FRS doesn't record everyone around the pit when the big money is played. Otherwise, when the BP team revisit the casino, they can see a clear pattern that these specific people show up again.
Let's not forget that most players cards are provided after giving them your drivers license, which they scan. Your photo is readily available. May not be the only way they get your image but it is likely a major one.

As I have said several times the EV you may get from comps is overwhelmed by the lost EV from never playing again in this store, much less the chance that it may effect you at other stores.

Zeebar, continues to tell you how little OSN has affected him, and I am happy for him, but it is very bad advice to be oblivious to this and the many other threats that will come from effective AP play. I am also very aware of various cover techniques that influence this issue and encourage all to pursue and implement those that fit your game and risk level. They can mitigate some of the issues.

But not all. Remember, they are not going to come to you and say, "If you keep moving your bets with the count or presenting a winning game over time we will back you off or worse". They just do it, abrupt and final. You are then required to add more risk to your play at those casinos by risking being recognized, either by management or FRS. Now you have pissed them off and this can result in trespass. Or they won't recognize you and you will get away with it, this time.

I am sure many can structure a number of other sets of conditions that are both more favorable and more penal.

In any case, consider the negative impacts higher that the positive. Or don't and learn by getting burned.
