I'm not saying this is the best advice, but here're some ideas.
Go to a security booth and ask them for a wristband because you keep getting ID'd. They'll check your ID, verify you're 18/21+, then give you a wristband. The obvious downside to this is that you're going straight to security and just giving up your ID to them. Although that's probably safer than giving your ID to the floor person. Once you get to the table and you get ID'd, show them the wristband. They should be fine with that and not pester you for ID. If they do pester you more for ID....I don't really have any advice there, other than maybe just give it up OR (if you think it may be heat related) you can act disgusted that everyone keeps wanting to ID you even though you got a wristband from security showing you're of age...then leave.
Alternatively, just show your ID right when you're buying in. Hopefully the dealer will check your ID and give it back before a floor person comes by.
Other idea is to try to look older. Don't wear a hoodie, shorts, and a hat that says "YOLO" or some sh** on it. Wear some decent clothes (not necessarily "dressed up"), a watch that isn't cheesy looking, and be more confident (don't meagerly approach the table kind of thing).
If you're talking about the security at the front of the casino entrance (more common in the Midwest and South), there isn't really a way around showing ID there. There is a way you can "sort of" get around it -- which would be to go through, show ID. Walk around for a few minutes (not too long), then leave through the same entrance. Tell the security person you're just going out to your car to get something that you forgot, or ask where some 'X' area is that you know is outside of the casino area. Hopefully, when you return, they won't ID you because they remember you. The idea is if you draw some heat at the tables and they backup the tapes, they'll see you entering the casino without being ID'd. Obviously this isn't fool proof, but it may be the difference between them figuring out your name and them not.
