few weeks ago I came at a table with $ 100. In about 30 minutes I gained almost $ 400, 30 minutes more I played very passive as to not lose the winnings.
After I accumulated a total of $ 400 I left the table.
Players at the table looked bad at me.
How should I leave the table after I win consistently, but to not upset other players. Because practically I have taken their money and I left.

Fuck em. If they don't want to lose, don't put the money on the table. Just get up and say thanks guys but I have to go.

And the dealer doesn't hear this? And has anyone ever seen you when you go out?

Those players are loyal customers. In this case nobody can do anything to them. When I left not happened nothing.
but I assume that they will not accept me to play with them again.
For this I ask, what attitude I should have in this cases.

Fuck em, their move. You know where they hang out if they are regulars. I wait in my car and watch what they drive, pretty sure I know what to do next time they threaten me. Not to hard to show up with 15 friends and have another talk with them.
If your just going to be intimated and not leave till you lose then don't go. Plenty of games online where nobody knows where you park.

Yeah I'm skipping any casino that is cool with people threatening you at the table. I guess parking lot gang rumble is an option...

What they said.
1) It's your money
2) If you're at all ever uncomfortable with money get an escourt to your car. If you're dealing with over 10k in cash, ask if they have a private cashier room.

I only had one time when I feld a little concern.
I had picked up AA and raised. Got one caller. The flop was J, 8,5.
The caller raised, I called. The turn was rag. The caller raised again and I re-raised. He called. The river was an A the caller checked and I went all in and he called. He turned over JJ and when I turned ove the AA to take the pot he exploded. He threw the cards accross the tabled at me and screamed "You called me with that hand, Ill get you for that." "Ill take all your money" The dealer immediately stepped in and called the pit boss over and they told him he would have to settle down or leave. Since he only had about 25.00 left he left. I was with three friends so did not feel I needed security to walk me out.

I would just take the money, and then quietly bow out after a little while longer of playing. The point is you already won that money, and you should have a right to keep it and walk away, if you so choose. That said you should usually wait a little while before leaving, just so you don't look like you are obviously rushing out.

Well, unless you are playing poker to lose all your money, then you should bow out when you are ahead. Try to be diplomatic about it, and don't leave with a fuss. If you are really worried then talking to casino security, or even the manager if you are afraid because they are "loyal customers".
You can always go to a different casino after that, but people say a lot of things in the heat of the moment which they do not act upon in the cold hard light of reality.

Depending on how much you are winning at one casino, you may be accused of cheating or something if you hang around for too long, so be sure to bow out gracefully and quietly, before you get in over your head.
