Advice or suggestions when returning after being identified

[ArcticInferno]

According to the November 2010 issue of Current Blackjack News, Bellagio (MGM) is listed as having facial recognition system and shares info with other MGM casinos.
However, Aria (MGM) and most other MGM casinos aren’t listed as having facial recognition system, and also, other MGM casinos aren’t listed to share info.
Mirage (MGM) is listed as having facial recognition system, but not listed to share info.
I was backed off at Mirage (MGM) and New York NY (MGM) back in March 2010.
I was also identified at Mandalay Bay although not officially backed off.
I’m pretty sure that I was identified at Aria and MGM Grand as well.
I didn’t play at Palazzo or Venetian at all (LVS).
I’m planning a trip to Las Vegas in a few weeks and I will be staying on the strip.
I expect to play some green, but mostly black (but not purple, because I’d rather push out five blacks rather than one purple).
It’s been about 8 months since my last trip to Las Vegas. Of course the pit crew and the dealers won’t remember me, but what about the facial recognition systems?
Any advice, suggestions, or recommendations?

What's your age? Face transplants are in our future. You'll have to get in line behind me. Mine's for a different reason.

I was backed off (anon play) at Mirage a while ago and had no problems playing other MGM houses same trip. I went back to Mirage 3 months later, no problems.

Wear a hat, and don't give an ID, and you should be ok.

I always play anonymously. I ne-eeever play rated.

Here’s a possible strategy.
In the early part of the trip, play at MGM casinos without facial recognition systems (and never stay too long at any one place).
Near the latter part of the trip (maybe 2/3 or 3/4 through) carefully play at MGM casinos with facial recognition systems.
Also, about halfway through the trip, start playing at non-MGM casinos, like Venitian or Palazzo, or Wynn etc.
This will allow me to manage risk.

Hey 21forme, your experience is comforting.

Get some fake glasses to break up your face on the imaging. Those things don't really work either, unless they use a close-up picture, which means they're already on to you.

I agree. Here's a thread I started that drew exactly zero replies laugh, probably because no one could see how it related to BJ. But it illustrates a problem with FRS.
