Usually you can keep under the radar by not going nuts with your bets, but it did happen to me at the Rio last year. I only had a few hours left before I had to go to the airport so I sat at an empty table and fluxuated my bets ridiculously. One bet would be $25, the next $400 or higher if the count got good, back and forth like that. It was a beautiful streak, in less than an hour I was up over $12,000. Then two security guys came to me and told me they would like to talk to me, so I got up and and walked a few feet away from the table with them and they told me in a nice way to stop playing. I asked why and they said they suspected I was counting. I asked them if I had to leave the casino and they told me no, just stay off the tables. They were actually pretty cool about the whole thing. So I cashed in my $12,000 jumped in a taxi and off to the airport I went.
