happens in Vegas and Reno all the time
Not so much a barring but a backoff in downtown Vegas, some locals places in Vegas or Reno to a red chip player is not rare at all.
I think it is rare at Indian casinos in California and rare in upper end strip joints in Vegas if you play low stakes. But if you are saying that your local casino sees very little big action, your action might be significant for them and just like El Cortez will backoff the guy who goes from $5-$40, your casino might.

So backoff as opposed to barring is being kicked out for the day or do I know my terms right. I did not know Cortez would nail you for 5-40, that is petty.
The Western is just down the street though. Play with crack heads!
Do I have my terminology down right though, please inform.
Backoff = barring True or False?

If you're talking about Colorado, you're in a regime where the min bet is $5 and the max bet is $5. I don't think the casino thinks that's beatable, no matter how many spots you occupy. I don't think it's beatable. The casino, if they notice, probably thinks it's funny, like backcounting a CSM (okay, not that bad...)
I've been backed off with $50, $100, and $350 max bets. I've been preferentially shuffled on with a $75 max bet. It's highly dependent on the place you're at.
Douching = shuffling up, bet capping, or flat-betting.
Backoff = Invitation to not play blackjack. or maybe even any table games.
Barring = prohibition from the casino. Preferably accompanied by a reading fo the trespass act.

I never got a trespass reading with my barring in any of the UK casinos. But it was made clear on my next attempt to visit one that I wasn't welcome to play or enter, and that I shouldn't expect to be welcome anytime in this lifetime.
They clearly loved their money even more than I loved taking it from them. Jealous b***ards.
I would have told them that "money is the root of all evil" but their bouncers looked like they probably wouldn't appreciate any wise cracks or hassle. I know when to walk away...

I played for a long time (200 hours over several months) playing 10-100 spread all over ac, and never got in trouble untill i started making bets above 200 which is how i play now where it all came crashing down on me at once.
One time at the potawotomi in wisconson, i split my tens with 100 bucks on the table right in front of the GD floorperson, she watched me do it and didnt even say a word she just put some stuff in the computer and walked away as if nothing happened.
So in my experience i have never been directly confronted in terms of modifiing playing conditions while playing at low stakes, but my comp cards have been tossed in my face a few times and in those cases i just got new ones.
