Only poker players would play in a tournament. In the blackjack world, at least, you often don't want to give your name, and you don't want the casino to have any more info than they already have. Cash is perfect in these instances.
Of course, if you're just some sucker who doesn't play a winning game, then you will never have a problem.

The house would love to see card counters go out of business since you make your money from the casino. Professional poker players are another matter since you win money from other players and the casino isn't threatened.

Nope. Everything is above board, although I'm sure many gamblers are not quite as honest.
