Amongst thousands they can find with their high-tech surveillance cameras someone who was banned, but they don’t see the thousands who are gambling excessively day after day and week after week.

The Morning Call - August 22 - Sands Casino player evicted a second time...
It had been two years since his eviction, but Sands security didn't forget.
A New York man who was permanently evicted from Sands Casino was tossed from the Bethlehem gambling hall when he tried to return Wednesday night.
Chang Quan Chen, 64, of Brooklyn, was charged with trespassing just after 10 p.m. Wednesday. Chen's eviction gave a window into just how detailed the casino's surveillance can be. State police Trooper Robert Grossi said Chen wasn't committing a crime — other than returning to a casino he'd been banned from.
Yet a team of Pennsylvania Gaming Control Board officers in the second-floor booth staring at dozens of surveillance monitors on a floor where thousands of people were playing slot machines and table games recognized him as someone who had been banned in October 2011.
"He wasn't doing anything obvious, but they still found him," Grossi said. "Clearly, they're very, very good at what they do."
Grossi said it was not clear what Chen did in 2011 to get permanently banned.
