So I've been around a while, and had my share of back offs. For the first time (in a very long while, as long as my memory serves), this is the first of being backed off without any noticeable heat. Now perhaps I"m just used to people glancing at me, I did catch the eyes of a PB from far away looking towards my direction, but the clear signs of PB huddling for a "group discussion" or the "phone call to EITS in front of me" did not occur.

In fact, being banned here, REALLY surprised me. And I'm always looking for any reason to seriously leave before the tap. I'm usually good at noticing (interpreting is a different story).

1. Small casino, I was rat holing. EITS may see me cusp $75-100 in one smooth move. Obviously suspect move.

2. Probably what nailed me tbh. Rec spreaded to 2 hands of $75-100, I said I'll join you. And went "all-in". From a $25 to $100 spread throughout, I blasted everything I had and went 2 x 200+. The hand managed to win. And I went back to a $75 (off the top bet) and then dropped back down to $50. And before I could drop to 25 (3rd hand of the shoe, I got backed off). --------> IMHO this mimics casuals pretty well.

Usually I would bounce after a max-max bet like that, but the rec next to me went back to 1 hand of $25. So I thought we looked very similar.

Lastly the title was misleading, I"m not shocked that my spread got me kicked. I'm shocked, I got kicked, without any heat. ----
